Özet

Digital asset manager Bitwise has filed with the SEC for 11 new spot altcoin ETFs, targeting assets including AAVE, HYPE, UNI, and NEAR. The proposed ETFs will follow a 60/40 investment strategy, with the majority allocated to direct asset exposure and the remainder to derivatives. This move comes after the 2025 approval of several other altcoin ETFs, such as those for SOL, XRP, and DOGE. Despite significant institutional inflows exceeding $1 billion in some cases—like XRP and SOL ETFs—the prices of the underlying assets have remained subdued, showing a disconnect between ETF demand and market performance. Analysts suggest that while 2026 may be a pivotal year for crypto ETFs, the sector risks becoming overcrowded, potentially leading to a market shakeout.

Digital asset manager Bitwise plans to expand its presence in altcoin ETFs in 2026. According to a recent SEC filing, the firm has applied for 11 new U.S Spot crypto ETFs.

According to the Bitwise strategy, the investment in these altcoin ETFs will be split 60/40, where 60% is a direct investment in the underlying asset, while the rest involves derivatives and other ETPs.

The targeted crypto assets include Aave [AAVE], Zcash [ZEC], Uniswap [UNI], Hyperliquid [HYPE], Sui [SUI], Starknet [STRK], Near Protocol [NEAR], Bitensor [TAO], Ethena [ENA], Canton [CC], and TRON [TRX].

In 2025, the regulator greenlighted several altcoin ETFs, including Solana [SOL], Ripple [XRP], Hedera [HBAR], Litecoin [LTC], Chainlink [LINK], and even a memecoin product, Dogecoin [DOGE] ETF.

It appears that there’s still room to add more and enable traditional players to gain exposure in the rapidly growing blockchain industry. As one analyst, Chad Steingraber, summed it up,

“2026 is going to be year of the crypto ETF. A whole new market has just opened up to crypto.”

But what are the short-term to mid-term impact on the underlying assets?

ETFs’ impact on altcoin

Most top crypto assets now have at least demand lines, typical on-chain users, ETFs, and corporate treasuries.

Worth pointing out that Bitcoin [BTC] and Ethereum [ETH] benefited from institutional demand in H1 2025, driving their respective values to record highs. BTC crossed $126,000 while ETH nearly reached $5,000 before the late 2025 market rout reversed the gains.

However, the latest wave of crypto ETF approvals hasn’t enjoyed a similar price boost despite attracting over $1 billion in institutional inflows.

XRP ETFs, for example, have attracted $1.16 billion in cumulative inflows as of 30th of December, yet the XRP price has remained muted below $2.

A similar scenario was observed in U.S Spot SOL ETFs. The products have experienced only three days of net outflows since their debut in October.

Overall, they have seen $763 million in inflows, with total net assets almost reaching $ 1 billion. But SOL declined from $195 to $124 over the same period.

The rest of the altcoin ETFs, such as LINK, LTC, and HBAR, exhibited a similar trend: rising demand but muted price action. In fact, only the DOGE ETF hasn’t attracted significant inflows.

Although the assets’ prices may pick up if broader market sentiment improves, Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart warned that the sector was becoming overcrowded and a shakeout was likely.


Final Thoughts

  • Bitwise sought SEC approval on 11 new crypto ETFs following the regulator’s greenlight to some altcoin ETFs in 2025.
  • Still, the strong demand for altcoin ETFs has not boosted the prices of underlying assets like SOL and XRP.

Can Generative Models Finally Be Trained End-to-End? The Core Is a For Loop

This article introduces a novel training paradigm for generative models called Explorative Modeling (XM), which enables true end-to-end training. Traditionally, powerful generative models like autoregressive and diffusion models are not trained end-to-end. They are trained to predict a single small step but require iterative multi-step sampling for inference. This "exposure bias" leads to error accumulation and limits performance. The core challenge XM addresses is "mode blurring." In generative tasks, a single input (e.g., "generate a dog") corresponds to many valid outputs (multiple modes). Standard training objectives like reconstruction loss force the model to average these modes, producing unrealistic, blurry outputs. To avoid this, existing models break generation into many small, almost deterministic steps, sacrificing end-to-end training. XM tackles this by restructuring the training loop itself. Its key insight is to amplify "generative expressivity." For each training input, instead of generating one sample, the model generates K candidate outputs. Only the candidate closest to the real data is used for computing the loss and updating the model via backpropagation. This simple "best-of-K" mechanism is implemented as a short for-loop. By exploring multiple possibilities, the model learns to distribute its guesses across different modes rather than collapsing to their uninformative average. The paper demonstrates that "exploration" acts as a new, powerful scaling axis. Gains from XM increase with model size, data scale, and compute. Experiments show improvements in FID scores for image generation and significant efficiency gains, sometimes outperforming larger models without exploration. When pushed to the limit, XM enables fully single-step, end-to-end generative models. In robotics tasks, an "Explorative Policy" matched the performance of a 100-step Diffusion Policy with a single forward pass, drastically improving inference speed. While the best-of-K concept is not entirely new, the authors' contribution lies in formally understanding it as a direct method to boost generative expressivity without fragmenting the generation process. This work suggests that as models scale, enhancing exploration during training may become crucial for overcoming fundamental performance bottlenecks.

Annual Salary of Millions Competing for Electricians, Meta Rushes to Open Its Own Technical School

The AI boom is facing an unexpected bottleneck: a severe shortage of skilled construction workers and electricians. As tech giants like Meta, OpenAI, and Alphabet race to build massive data centers—such as OpenAI's $16 billion "Stargate" project—they are hitting a critical labor wall. The U.S. needs an estimated 130,000 more electricians, 240,000 construction workers, and 150,000 supervisors by 2030 for AI infrastructure alone, but tens of thousands of electrician jobs go unfilled each year. While AI companies offer high premiums, with electricians earning up to $280,000 annually, worker scarcity still causes massive losses—delays on a single project can cost $14.2 million per month. The complexity of building AI data centers, which require immense power (equivalent to powering hundreds of thousands of homes), sophisticated electrical systems, and advanced liquid cooling solutions, demands highly skilled technicians who are in short supply. To combat this, companies are investing heavily in training. Meta has committed $115 million to a free training school offering tuition, housing, and stipends, targeting 5,000 new workers. OpenAI is partnering with unions to secure skilled labor. These efforts are paying off, with a significant rise in Gen Z interest in trade schools over college. However, the power demands are staggering. AI data centers are driving a rapid surge in electricity consumption, projected to account for up to 12% of U.S. power use by 2028 and raising costs for consumers. Furthermore, the construction boom is project-based, leading to a potential future glut of trained workers once building peaks, which could depress wages industry-wide. The race for AI supremacy now depends as much on skilled hands as on advanced chips.
