AETH

Bitwise Trendwise Ethereum and Treasuries Rotation Strategy ETF

AETH aims to capture the return potential of Ethereum—the world’s leading blockchain for stablecoins and smart contracts—with an emphasis on capital preservation during volatile periods. The Fund’s proprietary, rules-based strategy invests in ether futures when prices are gaining momentum and rotates fully into U.S. Treasuries when the reverse is true. The Fund does not invest directly in ether.

Why Invest in AETH?

Ethereum is the most popular platform in the world for building crypto applications. AETH offers a way for investors to gain directional exposure to ether when crypto markets are gathering momentum while seeking to minimize downside volatility when markets are in retreat.

Ethereum Exposure, Managed for Downside Risk

Today, a majority of the most popular crypto applications—from decentralized finance (DeFi) to stablecoins to non-fungible tokens (NFTs)—are built on Ethereum. AETH's strategy seeks to provide exposure to the growth potential of the Ethereum network while managing downside risk.

Proprietary Research-Based Approach

Depending on market momentum, the fund invests entirely in either CME Ether Futures or U.S. Treasuries. This proprietary rotational strategy aims to provide higher risk-adjusted returns than a traditional buy-and-hold strategy by participating in sustained rallies while prioritizing capital preservation in uncertain markets.

Professionally Managed Exposure From a Crypto Specialist

For more than seven years, Bitwise has helped leading investors understand and access crypto’s opportunities while managing its risks. Our team of over 90 professionals manages your investment using systems built for institutions, from custody and trading to regulation and compliance.

Performance data quoted represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Short-term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund's future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the original cost. Returns for periods of one year or less are not annualized. For the most recent month-end performance, please call 1-866-880-7228.
 
Performance of one year or less is not annualized. NAV performance is calculated based on the official closing values as of 4:00 p.m. ET. Market Price performance reflects the midpoint of the bid-ask spread as of 4:00 p.m. ET, and does not represent the returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times. Fund returns are calculated net of expenses. Shares are subject to a 0.85% Expense Ratio that includes the management fee, custody charges for holding the fund’s assets charged by the custodian, and customary fees and expenses of the fund administrator and auditor.
