Amplify ETFs Recognized with Two 2026 ETF Express Award Nominations

Firm Earns Repeat Recognition for Crypto Innovation and Options Strategy Leadership

CHICAGO, Sept. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amplify ETFs, a leading provider of breakthrough ETF solutions, today announced it has been added to two shortlists for the 2026 ETF Express U.S. ETF Awards: Best Crypto-Linked ETF Issuer ($1 billion+) and Best Options Strategies ETF Issuer ($1 billion – $10 billion). The crypto-linked recognition marks the second consecutive year Amplify has been shortlisted in the category, following its 2025 win for Best Crypto-Linked ETF Issuer ($100 million – $1 billion).

Amplify's recognition in the crypto-linked category follows the continued expansion of its digital asset lineup. In 2018, the firm launched the Amplify Blockchain Technology ETF (BLOK), the first actively managed blockchain ETF, and has since expanded its offerings with option income strategies tied to bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP. Most recently, Amplify launched the Amplify Fairlead Tactical Bitcoin ETF (BNAV), an actively managed strategy that dynamically adjusts bitcoin exposure based on technical market signals.

In options strategies, Amplify previously won Best Options Strategies ETF Issuer ($1 billion – $10 billion) in 2024. The firm’s YieldSmart™ lineup has since expanded across a range of asset classes. The suite includes the Amplify CWP Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (DIVO), which launched in 2016 and has grown to more than $8 billion in assets, while the Amplify CWP International Enhanced Dividend Income ETF (IDVO) has approximately $1.5 billion in AUM.

“The best ideas can come from emerging corners of the market or from improving strategies investors have used for decades,” said Christian Magoon, CEO of Amplify ETFs. “That’s how we’ve approached both digital assets and options strategies, with a focus on giving investors differentiated ways to pursue opportunities across the market. It’s rewarding to see that work recognized in two very different categories where we continue to see significant potential.”

Winners of the 2026 ETF Express U.S. ETF Awards are determined through industry voting and will be announced at an event in New York City in late October. To vote, visit the U.S. ETF Express Awards voting page.

ETF Express U.S. Awards Methodology:
The pre-selection data for the issuer shortlists for our awards has been provided by Trackinsight since 2020. Candidates in all ETF asset class categories and groupings are determined on the basis of the following criteria.

All currently listed ETFs for the previous 12 months are included in the issuer universe.

For each category, all of an issuer’s ETFs in that specific asset class category or grouping are combined to give a total assets under management figure.

Within all categories, issuers with assets of below $100 million are excluded (based on average assets during the period under review).

Shortlist nominations are based on the percentage change in the issuers’ assets under management in each category over the previous 12 months.

Where the sample size in specific asset class categories permits, issuers are also grouped by average asset thresholds such as: $100 million – $1 billion; $1 billion – $10 billion; $5 billion – $50 billion and $50 billion+.

The shortlisted companies are then compiled into a voting survey with our shortlisted Service Providers, which is distributed among the industry. In this survey, votes are limited to 10 internal votes per company. Once the votes are reviewed by our team, the votes are tallied to find the winning companies.
