Bitwise Commits Ethereum ETF Profits to Development Support
Bitwise Asset Management has pledged to donate 10% of the profits from its new Ethereum ETF (ETHW) to organizations focused on Ethereum development.
Bitwise’s ETHW ETF, launching on July 23, will invest directly in ETH. The management fee is initially set at 0.20%, but will be waived for the first six months on the first $500 million in assets. The profits allocated for donation will support the Protocol Guild and PBS Foundation, which are key to advancing the Ethereum network.
Bitwise CTO Hong Kim highlighted the significance of this initiative, emphasizing the role of community-supported development in Ethereum’s evolution. The firm will also transparently disclose all ETH holdings related to the ETF.
