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.
