Bitwise Files For 11 New Crypto ETFs, Including Uniswap, Sui, Near

On 30 December 2025, Bitwise Asset Management announced submitting applications to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for 11 new “strategy” exchange-traded funds (ETFs). 

Bitwise’s filings target an array of altcoins, including DeFi leaders like AAVE and UNI, privacy coin ZEC, AI-focused TAO, and others such as CC, ENA, HYPE, NEAR, STRK, SUI, and TRX. Each ETF employs a hybrid approach, blending direct token holdings with ETPs and derivatives to deliver targeted exposure, all while navigating regulatory constraints.

Notably, in July 2025, the company scored wins with its Bitwise Crypto Index Fund (BIT) conversion to spot and expedited BTC ETH ETF nods within 45 days.

Will this move be able to push Bitwise into altcoin ETFs amid a maturing US regulatory landscape aided by the US President Donald Trump administration?

Bitwise ETF Investment Strategy Breakdown: Structure Mirrors Successful Spot BTC, ETH ETFs

Pending the SEC green light, the proposed fund aims to launch around 16 March 2026. Moreover, it is expected to unlock billions in institutional capital for the abovementioned tokens. 

The core strategy for each Bitwise ETF allocates up to 60% of assets directly into the target crypto, purchased via crypto exchanges or OTC counterparties. The remaining 40% flows into ETPs tracking the same token, with derivatives like futures and swaps providing flexible exposure- counted at notional value to meet the minimum 80% investment threshold in related assets. 

Yes, the structure mirrors successful spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. But it adapts for altcoins lacking US spot approval.

Under normal market conditions, funds commit at least 80% of net assets (plus borrowings) to the “Applicable Token,” its ETPs, or derivatives, prioritizing capital growth.

Bitwise’s filings specify NYSE Arca listing, with tickers and fees TBD. It positions these as the firm’s largest single-day crypto ETF submission.
