Bitwise Files S-1 to Launch 100% Spot SUI ETF

Published at 2025-12-18 18:15:56

Bitwise has filed an S-1 registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a spot SUI ETF that would provide investors with 100% direct exposure to the SUI token. The filing, part of the firm’s ongoing expansion of crypto funds, signals growing issuer appetite to bring altcoin-specific exchange-traded products to market under regulatory oversight.

If the SEC clears the offering, a spot SUI ETF could broaden access for retail and institutional investors, potentially improving liquidity and on‑ramp options for SUI. Approval is not guaranteed and the SEC review timeline remains uncertain; important considerations will include custody arrangements, market surveillance and fee structure. The filing follows a broader trend of asset managers seeking regulated ETFs for major and emerging digital assets, reflecting demand for simpler, commission-free exposure to specific tokens.
