Bitwise will donate 10% of ETHW profits to Ethereum open-source development

The Bitwise Ethereum ETF (ETHW) is not suitable for all investors. An investment in the Fund is subject to a high degree of risk, has the potential for significant volatility, and could result in significant or complete loss of investment. Please see important information at the bottom of this page to learn more about the risks associated with an investment in ETHW. The Fund is not an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) and therefore is not subject to the same protections as mutual funds or ETFs registered under the 1940 Act.

    The Ethereum commons relies on open-source contributions from individuals around the world. Bitwise's support for Protocol Guild members is a wonderful example of the ecosystem giving back to fund this essential stewardship.

    Understanding and improving upon the shared externalities created by the Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) protocol design is critical towards advancing decentralization in Ethereum. We’re grateful to Bitwise for highlighting and supporting this important cause
