The post Bitwise Files S-1 for Avalanche ETF With SEC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitwise has followed VanEck and Grayscale in submitting an Avalanche (AVAX) ETF filing to the U.S. SEC. This push highlights increased institutional regulation of AVAX exposure. Bitwise Avalanche ETF Seeks Direct Exposure with Coinbase Custody The SEC filing follows the trust’s registration in Delaware, where it was organized as a statutory trust. The proposed Bitwise Avalanche ETF will provide direct exposure to Avalanche by holding the token in custody. Shares are expected to list on a U.S. exchange under a ticker symbol that will be disclosed later. Net asset value will track the CME CF Avalanche–Dollar Reference Rate, published daily by CF Benchmarks. Coinbase Custody Trust Company will act as custodian for Avalanche assets held by the trust. Coinbase Custody, regulated under New York banking law, will safeguard tokens in segregated accounts with cold storage protection. Instead of derivatives, the ETF will hold Avalanche directly. The shares will be issued and redeemed in blocks of 10,000 shares also known as baskets. These will be settled either in cash, or in Avalanche. The key benefit of this structure is that investors can access the exposure without any management of wallets and private keys. It supports proof-of-stake consensus, scalable smart contracts, governance, staking and subnet creation. TradingView data shows that AVAX price is $29.83, up 1.29% over 24 hours. It remains 57.44% below its all-time high, underscoring the risks and volatility that ETFs would pass on to investors. The AVAX price recovery highlights market changes and renewed investor interest following ETF filing developments. VanEck and Grayscale Pursue Separate Spot Avalanche ETF Approvals Bitwise is not the only asset manager pursuing an Avalanche ETF. VanEck filed an S-1 for its own spot AVAX ETF in March 2025. Nasdaq submitted a proposed rule change in April 2025 to allow its listing. No final approval… The post Bitwise Files S-1 for Avalanche ETF With SEC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
