Bitwise has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a “Stablecoin & Tokenization ETF.” If approved, the fund will provide investors with diversified exposure to two of the fastest-growing themes in crypto: the stablecoin sector and the emerging market for tokenized real-world assets, while also investing in stocks of companies involved in these areas.
Bitwise Plans for Dual Investment Strategy
According to Bitwise’s SEC filing, the ETF will be composed of two equally weighted “sleeves.” One sleeve will invest in equities of companies closely tied to the stablecoin and tokenization sectors: this includes stablecoin issuers, payment processors, infrastructure providers, crypto exchanges, and even retailers embracing digital assets in their business models.
The other half for crypto assets and blockchain infrastructure that underpin stablecoin issuance and tokenization, such as regulated exchange-traded products (ETPs) tied to Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as blockchain oracles and networks supporting tokenized transactions. The largest single crypto ETP position has a cap of 22.5% of the sleeve, and the ETF’s index will rebalance quarterly in response to market dynamics.

Unlike earlier ETFs focused solely on Bitcoin or Ethereum, Bitwise’s new fund aims to serve investors seeking diversified exposure to the broader digital finance ecosystem. Competitors include Nicholas Wealth’s Crypto Income ETF (BLOX), which also blends stocks and crypto assets, highlighting increasing demand for hybrid products in the ETF market.
Bitwise currently manages over 20 US-listed crypto ETFs and is among the most active managers in the space, with its existing funds attracting retail and institutional flows alike.
What’s Ahead
If approved, Bitwise’s Stablecoin and Tokenization ETF could launch as early as November 2025, as the SEC prepares to review a crowded slate of crypto and altcoin ETF applications.
With institutional and retail interest rising, the fund could mark a new chapter for mainstream crypto investing by combining robust equity exposure with real-time blockchain innovation.
