Asset manager Bitwise has submitted filings for 11 new single-asset cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

This batch targets major altcoins, including Aave (AAVE), Uniswap (UNI), and Sui (SUI), signaling a direct challenge to current regulatory boundaries that have largely confined ETF approvals to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and, more recently, Solana and XRP.

Bitwise Pushes Deeper Into Altcoin ETFs

According to the filings, the proposed products will sit under the Bitwise Funds Trust and trade on NYSE Arca if approved. The lineup includes strategy ETFs focused on AAVE, UNI, Zcash (ZEC), Near (NEAR), SUI, Tron (TRX), Starknet (STRK), Ethena (ENA), Bittensor (TAO), Hyperliquid (HYPE), and the Canton Networks CC token.

The prospectus outlined a consistent structure across the funds. Each ETF plans to hold up to 60% of its assets directly in the underlying token, while at least 40% would come from exchange-traded products, futures, or swaps that track the same asset. In some cases, exposure may be managed through offshore subsidiaries, a structure already familiar in commodity and crypto-linked funds.

ETF analyst Eric Balchunas reacted to the filings, writing on X that “money (and ETF filings) never sleeps,” a nod to the pace at which issuers are racing to secure first-mover advantage in altcoin products. Industry accounts such as ETF Hearsay also flagged March 16, 2026, as the tentative effective date, though fees and tickers remain undecided.

The breadth of the filings stands out because while earlier cycles focused almost entirely on Bitcoin and later Ethereum, Bitwise is now targeting decentralized finance, layer-1 networks, privacy coins, and even AI-linked crypto through TAO, reflecting shifting investor interest.

A Crowded and Competitive Landscape

Bitwise has made its move at a time when crypto ETFs outside Bitcoin are already showing mixed but telling results. For example, spot Solana ETFs, which launched in October, had attracted more than $750 million in net inflows halfway through December, according to recent CoinShares data.

Analysts noted that investors appear willing to hold these products through volatile price swings, suggesting longer-term positioning rather than short-term trading.

Meanwhile, Ripple-linked ETFs have gone even further. As previously reported, U.S.-listed XRP ETFs have recorded more than $1 billion in cumulative inflows without a single day of net withdrawals, outperforming Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana funds during the same period.
