Official documents reveal Bitwise APTOS ETF has been registered in Delaware, USA

Bitwise Asset Management has revealed that the BITWISE APTOS ETF has been registered in Delaware, USA. Other APTOS ETPs, including Bitwise Aptos Staking ETP and 21Shares Aptos Staking ETP, have also been launched in Europe.

Bitwise filed to establish a Delaware trust entity on February 25 for a proposed Aptos exchange-traded fund. The firm made the initial step to establish the ETF in Delaware before a formal Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) registration.

The state of Delaware’s government website announced that the Aptos ETF had been established in Delaware before any formal SEC registration. The firm noted that the registration makes it the first asset manager pursuing an investment product directly holding APT tokens in the U.S.

CoinMarketCap indicated that Aptos was the 30th largest crypto asset by market capitalization at the time of publication. APTOS surged in price by 13% following the news of the Aptos ETF registration in Delaware, USA. At the time of publication, APT was exchanging hands at $6.12, which represented an 8.28% 24-hour surge.

The firm argued that it stewards $12 billion in client assets and offers over 30 investment solutions, including index funds, alpha solutions, non-custodial staking, ETFs, and ETPs.

Aptos’ registration came in the wake of a broader expansion of crypto ETFs beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, with asset managers currently pursuing funds for Solana, XRP, Dogecoin, Cardano, and Litecoin.

Bitwise launches Bitcoin ETP on the SIX Swiss Exchange

The Zurich-based firm launched a Bitcoin exchange-traded product (ETP) based around the Aptos platform on the SIX Swiss Exchange on November 19, 2024. The firm said that the ETP tracked the underlying Aptos and aimed to generate returns of approximately 4.7% net of fees.

“For seven years, Bitwise has been a dedicated partner to investors working to understand and access the opportunities in the new crypto asset class.”

-Hunter Horsley, CEO and Co-Founder at Bitwise.

The firm noted that the Aptos Staking ETP was the second product in Bitwise Europe’s Total Return product suite. Horsley acknowledged that the launch of Bitcoin and the ETC Group Ethereum Staking ETPs in the U.S. led to a huge cross section of investors to research and add digital currencies to their portfolios. 

Mo Shaikh, CEO and co-founder of Aptos Labssaid that Bitwise’s Aptos Staking ETP marked a significant leap forward for the future of institutional adoption and validated the reliability and speed of the Aptos blockchain. 

Bradley Duke, Head of Europe at Bitwise, also iterated that the Aptos Staking ETP was designed for forward-thinking institutional investors and crypto-savvy individuals looking for “a high-quality way” to get exposure to blockchain via a regulated wrapper.

The Aptos ETP debut on the SIX Swiss Exchange was Bitwise’s first product launch since its acquisition of ETC Group in August 2024. The firm said its mission was the same as seven years ago: to be the partner investors rely on to understand and access the opportunities emerging in crypto.

The company said its fully backed APTOS ETP tracked Aptos’s (APT) performance while capturing staking yields that were reinvested into the ETP for enhanced performance. 

Bitwise also announced on February 25 that it had completed a $70 million round of funding from top financial institutions and technology investors. The investors in the round included Electric Capital, MassMutual, Highland Capital, Huan Ventures, ParaFi Capital, Khosla Ventures, General Catalyst, Nikesh Arora, and others.

21Shares also announced on November 14 the launch of its 21Shares Aptos Staking ETP (APTOS) on Euronext Amsterdam and Euronext Paris. The firm said that the establishment of APTOS represented Europe’s first-ever ETP tracking the performance of Aptos (APT).

Hany Rashwan, Co-Founder and CEO of 21Shares, lamented that the company’s Aptos Staking ETP represented a milestone moment for the European market. 21Shares’ Aptos Staking ETP followed the success of the company’s Solana ETP and SUI ETP. Rawshan added that the firm was a next-generation blockchain designed for speed, low costs and seamless transactions.
