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.

Probability in the Price: How World Cup Odds Are Calculated

**The Probability in the Price: How World Cup Odds Are Calculated** Two major systems released their "championship probabilities" before the 2026 World Cup, and they disagreed on the favorite. Prediction market aggregators listed France at around **17%**, while the Opta supercomputer gave European champion Spain **16.1%**. These numbers look similar, but their production methods are fundamentally different. The market's **17%** is the **price** that clears after hundreds of millions of dollars in trading across platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, where contracts trade between 0 and 100 cents, directly representing implied probability. This liquidity is provided by crypto-native market makers like Wintermute, though the market still has "the liquidity profile of an early-stage" asset class. In contrast, Opta's **16.1%** is a **simulated frequency**. Its model uses team data (including betting market odds as an input) to estimate match probabilities, then runs **10,000 full tournament simulations**, counting how often each team wins. Which is more accurate? There is **no rigorous, cross-tournament academic study** directly comparing their track records. However, a persistent **longshot bias**—where low-probability outcomes are systematically overvalued—observed in traditional betting for nearly a century, has also been found in modern crypto prediction markets. Research shows low-price contracts on Kalshi/Polymer less likely to pay out than their implied odds suggest. Unlike traditional bookmakers, prediction markets operate on **public blockchain ledgers**, making every transaction auditable and enabling such research. However, price formation is also influenced by **regulatory uncertainty**, as seen in recent US state-level bans and legal battles over jurisdiction. In summary, the "probability" you see is either a **market-clearing price** subject to behavioral biases and liquidity constraints, or a **model-simulated frequency** that partially incorporates market data. The question of which method is more reliable remains open, highlighting the importance of asking: **How was this number produced?**
