Exchange traded funds (ETFs) continue to grow in popularity with investors and it isn't hard to see why. These funds allow investors to gain exposure to sectors, themes, markets, and entire countries through a single investment.

This means an investor can home in on certain areas of the investment world that they're particularly bullish on.

With that in mind, listed below are three ETFs that could be worth getting better acquainted with. Here's what you need to know about them:

BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF (ASX: CRYP)

The BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF could be worth looking at if you have an interest in cryptocurrencies. BetaShares notes that this ETF allows investors to access the growth potential of the crypto economy through companies at the forefront of the industry. Among the companies included in the fund are crypto trading platforms, crypto mining and mining equipment firms, and others servicing crypto-markets. This includes Coinbase, Silvergate, and Riot Blockchain.

Betashares Global Sustainability Leaders ETF (ASX: ETHI)

Another ETF for ASX investors to look at is the Betashares Global Sustainability Leaders ETF. This ETF gives investors exposure to large global stocks that have been identified as "Climate Leaders." BetaShares notes that these companies have passed screens that check for direct or significant exposure to fossil fuels. It even checks for those that are engaged in activities deemed inconsistent with responsible investment considerations. Included in the fund are the likes of Apple, Nvidia, Toyota, and Visa.

iShares Global Healthcare ETF (ASX: IXJ)

A final ETF to look at is the iShares Global Healthcare ETF. As its name implies, this ETF provides investors with exposure to the healthcare sector. This includes the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and medical device sectors. Among its holdings are many of the world's biggest and best healthcare companies such as Australia's own CSL Ltd (ASX: CSL), Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, and Pfizer. These companies look well-placed to benefit from favourable industry trends such as ageing populations.
