What to know:

  • Bitwise filed with the SEC to introduce 11 crypto strategy ETFs, covering tokens including AAVE, UNI and ZEC.
  • The ETFs will invest up to 60% in the underlying token, with the rest in exchange-traded products and derivatives.
  • The filing coincides with Grayscale's move to convert its bittensor trust into an exchange-traded product as decentralized AI gains traction.

Crypto asset manager Bitwise filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to introduce 11 crypto "strategy" exchange-traded funds (ETFs) including aave AAVE$149.60, uniswap UNI$5.9111, zcash ZEC$527.24, SUI$1.4473 and TAO$223.67.

The Tuesday N-1A filing details an approach that includes investing up to 60% of a fund's assets directly in the underlying token, with the remainder allocated to exchange-traded products and, potentially, derivatives such as futures and swaps.

The SEC filing was made the same day Grayscale submitted a filing to convert its bittensor trust to an exchange-traded product. Barry Silbert, chairman of Grayscale, said in a post on X that the move reflects how quickly decentralized AI is evolving as one of the newest investable themes in U.S. crypto markets.

Bittensor operates as an open network that uses crypto-economic incentives to coordinate machine learning development, rewarding contributors of models and computing power with TAO. The project has drawn growing attention as investors seek exposure to AI-related crypto assets beyond traditional smart contract platforms.

Bitwise’s applications underscore how quickly issuers are expanding beyond bitcoin and ether following the success of spot ETFs tied to the two largest cryptocurrencies. The firm has previously introduced spot ETFs linked to bitcoin, ether, solana and XRP, and has filed additional applications tied to assets such as sui and hyperliquid.

The other tokens mentioned in the filing are HYPE$25.74, NEAR$1.5128, TRX$0.2833, athena (ENA), STRK$0.07816, canton coin (CC).

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…
