Bitwise Files for First Uniswap (UNI) ETF With SEC

Published at 2026-02-06 00:45:24

Bitwise has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to create what would be the first exchange-traded fund tied to Uniswap’s UNI token, according to the company’s Feb. 5 submission. The proposed product is designed to give investors direct exposure to UNI through a regulated ETF wrapper rather than buying the token on crypto venues, positioning Bitwise as an early provider of token-specific fund access.

If approved, the filing could broaden institutional and retail access to UNI, potentially boosting liquidity and market visibility for the token. The SEC’s review will be pivotal — questions around custody, surveillance, and market structure remain central to any approval decision. Market participants should watch for SEC feedback and a possible comment period, as timing for a decision is not yet disclosed.
