What is the Hyperliquid ETF proposed by Bitwise?
The Hyperliquid ETF is a proposed exchange-traded fund by Bitwise that would directly hold HYPE tokens and allow in-kind share creations and redemptions. The structure differs from futures-based products by owning the underlying token, potentially lowering costs and improving settlement efficiency.
How does Bitwise’s Hyperliquid ETF work?
Bitwise’s filing indicates the ETF would maintain baskets of HYPE for authorized participants to exchange for ETF shares in-kind. This means authorized participants can deliver HYPE tokens to the fund to create shares or receive HYPE when redeeming shares, reducing cash settlement friction.
Bitwise submitted Form S-1 and will follow with a Form 19b-4 to begin the SEC’s formal listing review. The firm noted that no Hyperliquid futures contracts are currently registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which may influence the regulator’s timeline.

Why could the SEC review take up to 240 days?
The SEC’s process for exchange listings and new fund types can include in-depth review of custody, valuation, market surveillance, and settlement mechanisms. Bitwise’s reliance on in-kind token transfers adds operational and regulatory considerations that may extend review duration up to 240 days.
