Bitwise, a digital asset manager based in the United States, has submitted a request to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to create a new exchange-traded fund (ETF).
This fund, named the “Stablecoin & Tokenization ETF”, is designed to reflect the performance of an index that includes traditional companies and cryptocurrency-related products involved in stablecoins and tokenization.
The ETF will rely on a two-part structure, with half of its holdings made up of stocks and the other half focused on crypto asset products. The equity side will include firms involved in various parts of the stablecoin and tokenization sectors.
