Özet:

 Blockchain technology, which forms the basis of cryptocurrency, is present in every area of the financial sector. One of these areas is investment funds. Investors can invest in more than one financial instrument simultaneously with investment funds. With the establishment of investment funds based on blockchain technology, the opportunity to invest in alternative funds is offered. It is seen that funds are diversified with the increasing demand of investors for blockchain-themed investment funds. For this purpose, blockchain investment funds, a widely preferred financial instrument today, are evaluated from a conceptual perspective. The birth, development, benefits, and importance of blockchain technology are evaluated, and blockchain technology investment funds are explained in terms of their conceptual dimension. In this study, the returns of the six funds traded under TEFAS are evaluated using the comparative analysis method for the 2021-2023 period. As a result of the research, it is seen that blockchain technology investment funds are very new in the financial markets. Blockchain technology investment funds can offer high return potential to investors if professional fund management companies manage them. It is expected that the importance of these funds will increase day by day with the rapid increase in fund sizes and numbers.

 Kripto paranın temelini oluşturan blok zincir teknolojisi finans sektörünün her alanında yer almaktadır. Bu alanlardan birisi de yatırım fonlarıdır. Yatırımcılar yatırım fonları ile aynı anda birden fazla finansal araca yatırım yapabilmektedir. Blok zincir teknolojisinin temelini oluşturduğu yatırım fonlarının kurulmasıyla alternatif fonlara yatırım imkânı sunulmaktadır. Yatırımcıların blok zincir temalı yatırım fonlarına taleplerinin artmasıyla fonların çeşitlendirildiği görülmektedir. Bu amaçla günümüzde yaygın olarak tercih edilen bir finansal araç olan blok zincir yatırım fonları kavramsal bir bakış açısıyla değerlendirilmektedir. Blok zincir teknolojisinin doğuşu, gelişimi, faydaları ve önemi değerlendirilerek, blok zincir teknolojisi yatırım fonları kavramsal boyutuyla açıklanmaktadır. Çalışmada TEFAS bünyesinde işlem gören altı fonun 2021-2023 dönemi getirileri karşılaştırmalı analiz yöntemiyle fonların getirileri değerlendirilmektedir. Araştırma sonucunda blok zincir teknolojisi yatırım fonlarının finansal piyasalarda çok yeni olduğu görülmektedir. Blok zincir teknolojisi yatırım fonlarının, profesyonel fon yönetim şirketleri tarafından yönetilmesinin yatırımcılara yüksek getiri potansiyeli sunabileceği düşünülmektedir. Fon büyüklüklerinin ve sayısının hızlı bir şekilde artmasıyla bu fonların öneminin her geçen gün artması beklenmektedir.
