The blockchain and crypto ETFs that returned most
Funds sold on one theme can hold different companies, so a year apart at the top and the bottom of this list is a difference in what they own rather than in the theme.

Method
The 14 of 15 ETFs in the blockchain and crypto equities theme with a full year of trading, highest first, each over the same year to Sep 18, 2026 with distributions reinvested. Across the funds listed here the one year total return runs from -35.2% to 20.4%. A year is a year. It says what happened and nothing about what happens next. The ranking is the published field sorted, nothing else: no scoring, no weighting and no view on any fund. Every fund ETFIQ covers in this category is eligible, including funds that have closed, because leaving them out would flatter the category.
