Bitwise Invest has launched the Bitwise Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF (OWNB), an exchange-traded fund designed to track publicly traded companies that hold at least 1,000 bitcoin (BTC).
The index follows specific rules: companies must hold a minimum of 1,000 BTC, with holdings weighted based on the amount of bitcoin owned. The largest holding is capped at 20%, while companies with less than 33% of their assets in bitcoin are weighted at 1.5%. The index rebalances every quarter.
According to Bitwise, publicly traded companies collectively held 591,817 BTC as of the end of 2024. The ETF, which will trade on NYSE Arca, has an expense ratio of 0.85%.
Bitwise has identified 70 public companies that currently hold bitcoin on their balance sheets.
The fund’s top three holdings of the ETF include Strategy (20.87%), MARA Holdings (12.12%), and CleanSpark (6.26%).
