On April 16, 2025, Bitwise, a digital asset manager, broadened its European reach by listing four Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) exchange-traded products (ETPs) on the London Stock Exchange (LSE). These ETPs are the Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP (BTC1), the Bitwise Physical Bitcoin ETP (BTCE), Bitwise's Physical Ethereum ETP (ZETH), and the Bitwise Ethereum Staking ETP (ET32). These products are exclusively available to institutional investors in the United Kingdom.
This move signifies Bitwise's active pursuit of crypto investment vehicles as digital assets gain traction in global financial markets. The listing on the LSE provides qualified market participants with improved access to these products.
Bitwise has been actively expanding its offerings, including filings for a Dogecoin ETF and an Aptos ETF in the United States. These filings reflect the growing interest in providing diverse cryptocurrency investment options to institutional investors.
