Bitwise Unleashes Its Institutional Crypto Arsenal on the LSE in Major UK Power Play
Asset management firm Bitwise announced on April 16th that it has listed four of its German-issued crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) on the London Stock Exchange (LSE), significantly expanding its footprint across Europe. The move enhances access to its institutional-grade digital asset offerings for qualified investors in the United Kingdom (UK). The company stated:
"Bitwise adds London as a trading hub for four of its European products, providing access to its top crypto ETPs for UK professional investors."
Bradley Duke, Managing Director and Head of Bitwise Europe, commented on the listings: "I am delighted to see the inaugural listings of Bitwise products on the London Stock Exchange, one of Europe’s most esteemed trading venues." He added, "Crypto investing is rapidly becoming mainstream and institutional investors are increasingly allocating digital assets to their portfolios." 👍
The four ETPs now available for trading in London are:
- Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP (BTC1)
- Bitwise Physical Bitcoin ETP (BTCE)
- Bitwise Physical Ethereum ETP (ZETH)
- Bitwise Ethereum Staking ETP (ET32)
The Core Bitcoin ETP is designed for strategic investors seeking cost-effective Bitcoin exposure, while the Physical Bitcoin ETP ranks among Europe's most liquid bitcoin instruments, commonly utilized by traders and short-to-medium-term investors. On the Ethereum side, the ZETH product offers cold-storage-backed exposure to ethereum, and the ET32 provides staking rewards plus benchmarking features to help assess performance. 📊
Following its 2024 acquisition of the ETC Group, Bitwise has accelerated product development and expanded its distribution across key European markets. Its ETPs are structured similarly to exchange-traded commodities (ETCs), backed by physical crypto assets held in institutional-grade cold storage, and secured by an independent trustee to mitigate issuer risk. ✅ Bitwise products trade on regulated exchanges and can be seamlessly integrated into standard investment accounts, eliminating the need for investors to manage a separate crypto wallet.
With this broadened access for professional investors via the prestigious LSE, Bitwise continues to cement its position as a leading provider of secure, transparent, and accessible crypto investment solutions in Europe.
What does this Bitwise expansion onto the LSE mean for institutional crypto adoption in the UK? 🤔 Is this a sign of growing demand?
