what's bitwise investments?
Bitwise Investments is a leading cryptocurrency asset management firm that specializes in providing regulated investment products such as ETFs and index funds to give investors easy access to digital assets. The company's purpose is to democratize crypto investing by offering diversified, low-cost exposure to major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana through products such as the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB), Ethereum ETF (ETHW), and the recently amended Solana Staking ETF (BSOL). Key features include competitive management fees (e.g., 0.20% for many funds), staking capabilities in select products like the Solana ETP, and a commitment to supporting the crypto ecosystem by donating 10% of profits from certain ETFs to open-source development organizations. Bitwise also manages the Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund (BITW), which tracks the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, and has expanded into innovative options-based strategies like ICRC and IETH for income generation. With over $5 billion in assets under management as of late 2025, Bitwise emphasizes transparency, with public Ethereum addresses and tight bid-ask spreads for liquidity.
Bitwise allocates 10% of Bitcoin ETF profits to developers; zero BTC ETF inflows, $8.6M BSOL inflows.
