Bitwise Launches Crypto ETPs on Swiss Stock Exchange
Bitwise Expands Crypto ETP Offerings in Switzerland
Bitwise Asset Management has listed five new crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) on the SIX Swiss Exchange, Switzerland’s primary stock exchange. The move, announced Thursday, marks a significant expansion of Bitwise's presence in the European crypto market.
The new ETPs offer exposure to some of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization:
- Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP
- Ethereum Staking ETP
- Solana Staking ETP
- Physical XRP ETP
In addition to these, Bitwise also listed the MSCI Digital Assets Select 20 ETP, designed to track the performance of the MSCI Global Digital Assets Select Top 20 Capped Index. This index, managed by MSCI, is rebalanced quarterly and covers over 90% of the investable cryptocurrency market.
Strategic Expansion in Europe
Ronald Richter, Regional Director Investment Strategy of Bitwise in Europe, stated that the listings would “broaden options for investors looking to benefit from the full potential of crypto markets,” emphasizing Switzerland’s crucial role in the European digital asset landscape.
The introduction of these ETPs aligns with growing demand for crypto investment products in Europe. With evolving regulations creating new opportunities, Bitwise is strategically positioning itself in key markets.
Growing Crypto Adoption
The UK is also moving towards easing retail access to crypto exchange-traded notes, reversing previous restrictions implemented due to consumer risk and market volatility concerns.
Bradley Duke, Head of Europe at Bitwise Asset Management, noted that the expansion fits their strategy of providing best-in-class crypto ETPs.
The ETPs are fully backed by the respective digital assets, held in institutional-grade cold storage, and feature a physical redemption mechanism, mirroring those used for precious metal ETCs.
Bitwise's Growth Trajectory
As of August 2025, Bitwise’s client assets had reached $15 billion across 40 investment products, representing a 200% increase since October 2024.
