CONI among the 125 inverse ETFs over three months
CONX among the 470 leveraged ETFs, long, over three months
A percentile among the 125 inverse ETFs over three months. CONX is a percentile among the 470 leveraged ETFs, long, over three months, a different set, so the two marks are not on one scale. It is a position in a set, not a rating, and neither end of it is a recommendation. All leveraged ETFs ranked by it → How it is computed →

CONI in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: CONI returned −53.7% where its own daily promise gave −52.8%, 0.9 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and −2 times COIN's 17.1% implies −34.1%, which makes CONI look 19.6 points short. 18.7 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any −2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CONI aims to return -2 times COIN's move each day, then resets. Over one day it does that. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not -2 times the period's move: in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less, and in a steady run it can be more. COIN moved at 75% annualized over that window. That is what decides how far the two figures separate: the same fund on a calm underlying and a violent one is a different product.
CONX in plain words
Three months to Sep 30, 2026: CONX returned +15.5% where its own daily promise gave +19.5%, 4.0 points short. Read the multiple against the whole window instead and 2 times COIN's 17.1% implies +34.1%, which makes CONX look 18.6 points short. 14.6 of that is daily compounding, which happens to any 2 times fund over the same path, and the rest is the fund. CONX aims to return +2 times COIN's move each day, then resets. Over longer, the daily results compound, so the total is not +2 times the period's move: in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less, and in a steady run it can be more.
Questions people ask
- Which came closer to its stated multiple, CONI or CONX?
- Over the window to Sep 30, 2026, CONI finished 19.6 points from what its multiple implies and CONX finished 18.6 points from its own, so CONX came closer. Neither figure predicts the next window: it depends on how much the underlying moves about.
- Are CONI and CONX levered on the same thing?
- Yes. Both are levered on Coinbase Global, CONI at -2 times and CONX at +2 times the daily move.
- Which one decays faster, CONI or CONX?
- Decay follows how much the underlying moves about. Over this window CONI’s moved at 75% annualized and CONX’s at 75%, so CONI has the rougher ride and, at the same multiple, loses more to compounding.
- Can I hold CONI or CONX for a year?
- Both reset every day, so the multiple in the name applies to a single day and the daily results compound. Over a year the total is not the multiple times the year’s move, and in a market that falls and comes back it is reliably less. ETFIQ makes no recommendation either way.
