Bitwise Asset Management ("Bitwise") is a cryptocurrency asset advisory and management firm. On October 14, 2021, Bitwise filed an application (Form S-1 - General form for registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to register a bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) to be listed for trading on the NYSE Arca Inc. exchange. Several proposals for spot bitcoin ETFs have been submitted to the SEC over the last 5 years, but "Bitwise Bitcoin ETP Trust" could be the first one on American markets, since none have been approved yet.

You can read the filing documents at https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1763415/000138713121009995/0001387131-21-009995-index.htm. The final deadline for the decision on Bitwise's spot bitcoin ETF application is June 29, 2022.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, by June 29, 11:59:59 PM ET, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approves to register "Bitwise Bitcoin ETP Trust" in accordance with the filed application. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".

Please note that any commentary by the SEC, conditional approval, or request to correct the application will have no bearing on the resolution of this market. Only full approval for registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933 before the resolution time will result in this market resolving to "Yes".
