Bitwise Accelerates Hyperliquid ETF Debut with Revised Filing

Resumen

Bitwise Asset Management has filed a second amendment with the SEC for its spot Hyperliquid ETF, changing the ticker to $BHYP and setting a management fee of 0.67%. Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas noted that such updates typically signal an imminent launch, suggesting Bitwise aims to capitalize on HYPE's 200% price surge over the past year. The fund, if approved, will track Hyperliquid's price and trade on NYSE Arca. Bitwise also plans to generate additional returns through HYPE staking, a feature not yet confirmed by competitors Grayscale and 21Shares, who have also filed for similar ETFs.

Reportedly, Bitwise Asset Management has filed a second amendment with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), marking a significant milestone on the road to launching its planned spot Hyperliquid exchange-traded fund.

Eric Balchunas, a senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, noted in Friday’s X post that Bitwise has changed the ticker for its Hyperliquid ETF to $BHYP and set a management fee of 0.67%, or 67 basis points.

Balchunas claims that these information being filed usually indicate that the product is about to be launched. He went on to say that the corporation was probably attempting to cash in while the iron was hot, since HYPE had gone up 200 percent in the last year.

This application comes as other asset managers, including as Grayscale and 21Shares, are also attempting to get in on the action by releasing their own exchange-traded funds (ETFs) linked to the crypto perpetual futures protocol and blockchain. Bitwise filed its Hyperliquid ETF with the SEC in September before the other two. A month later, 21Shares filed theirs, and Grayscale did the same at the end of March.

Investors will be able to track the current price of Hyperliquid via Bitwise’s ETF, which would trade on the NYSE Arca stock market if it is approved. Although neither Grayscale nor 21Shares have made it clear that their funds would aim to earn extra returns via HYPE staking, Bitwise said so in the firm’s first December filing revision.

When Google Also 'Prints Stocks' to Build AI, Whose Narrative is Shattering the High Valuations of Neocloud?

Google has announced its first equity financing since 2005, a series of moves totaling $80 billion that signal a strategic challenge to Nvidia's GPU dominance in the AI compute market. This impacts "Neocloud" companies like CoreWeave, Nebius, and IREN, whose valuations are heavily tied to Nvidia's perceived uniqueness. Google's three-part strategy involves: launching new TPU chips (TPU 8t/8i) and selling them to third parties for the first time; forming a $25 billion compute-as-a-service joint venture with Blackstone; and raising ~$50 billion in new equity (part of an $80B package) to fund AI infrastructure, underscoring the massive capital demands even for tech giants. This marks a divergence from Microsoft's path. Microsoft, lacking a mature in-house AI chip, relies heavily on outsourcing to Neocloud providers using Nvidia GPUs. Google, with its proprietary TPU, is pursuing vertical integration—building its own data centers, selling chips, and competing directly with Neocloud services. While Neocloud firms have strong near-term revenue from locked-in Nvidia GPU contracts (e.g., CoreWeave's ~$100B backlog), Google's moves undermine their long-term valuation narrative based on Nvidia's sole supremacy and perpetual supply shortage. TPU performance claims and adoption by firms like Anthropic add credibility to Google's alternative. The AI compute market is transitioning from a uniform seller's market to a layered one: top AI labs are diversifying their hardware stacks; hyperscalers are pursuing different chip strategies; and financing costs will become a critical differentiator, favoring players like Google with lower capital costs. Key metrics to watch include the progress of the Google-Blackstone JV, expansion of the TPU customer base beyond Anthropic, and potential shifts in Microsoft's sourcing strategy. If Google succeeds on these fronts, the Neocloud investment thesis will require significant reassessment.
