Bitwise launched four crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) on the London Stock Exchange, catering to institutional investors. These ETPs offer exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum, including a staking option for Ethereum. The listings follow increased institutional interest in crypto and a shift in regulatory sentiment. The departure of former SEC Chairman Gary Gensler spurred a surge in US ETF applications, including Bitwise's own Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF awaiting final approval. Bitwise also applied to list Dogecoin and Aptos ETFs in the US. The potential approval of these ETFs could significantly increase institutional investment in cryptocurrencies. Bitwise's CEO predicts substantial inflows into Bitcoin ETFs. These ETFs aim to stabilize cryptocurrency prices by channeling traditional market capital into the crypto space.

Asset manager Bitwise has listed four Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) exchange-traded products on the London Stock Exchange, expanding its presence in the European region. The listings include the Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP, the Bitwise Physical Bitcoin ETP, Bitwise's Physical Ethereum ETP, and the Bitwise Ethereum Staking ETP, according to the April 16 announcement. The products are available to institutional or otherwise-qualified investors with an accreditation, and not open to retail investors.

Asset managers and crypto firms rushed to submit filings in anticipation of a relaxed regulatory regime once Gensler left the agency in January. Bitwise's BTC and ETH ETF, which gives investors exposure to both digital assets in a single investment vehicle, was granted preliminary approval by the SEC in January but still requires final approval before listing. In March 2025, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) submitted an application for a rule change to list the Bitwise Dogecoin ETF on the US-based exchange. If approved, Dogecoin (DOGE) would be the first memecoin with a US-listed investment vehicle and could attract more institutional inflows into the dog-themed social token. Bitwise also filed for an Aptos ETF in March. The proposed Bitwise Aptos ETF will hold the native cryptocurrency of the high-throughput layer-1 blockchain, APT (APT), and will not feature staking rewards. Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan predicted Bitcoin ETFs would attract $50 billion in inflows during 2025. Institutional inflows into crypto ETFs act as a price stabilizer for digital assets with investment vehicles, lowering volatility through a pipeline siphoning capital from traditional investors in the stock market to cryptocurrencies.
