About Bitwise Bitcoin ETF
Commodity Contracts Brokers & Dealers, SIC 6221
Bitwise Bitcoin ETF is a Delaware statutory trust that issues common shares designed to track the performance of bitcoin held in its portfolio. The trust's primary objective is to offer investors exposure to bitcoin's market value, minus operating expenses and liabilities, through conventional brokerage accounts rather than requiring direct cryptocurrency ownership. The trust operates passively without active trading, leverage, or derivatives, holding only bitcoin and cash reserves. It establishes its net asset value using the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate - New York Variant, with shares issued and redeemed in ten-thousand-share baskets primarily through authorized market participants.
The trust conducts its operations within the United States, listing and trading its shares on the NYSE Arca exchange under the ticker symbol BITB. Administrative and operational functions are managed through its sponsor, Bitwise Investment Advisers, LLC, which maintains its principal executive offices in San Francisco, California. Cold storage custody of the trust's digital assets is provided by Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC.
