Bitwise Now Offers Investment Vehicle Providing Equal Exposure to Bitcoin and Ether Through Gemini BITRIA Platform

Today, we are thrilled to announce the launch of Bitwise Asset Management’s first crypto separately managed account (SMA) vehicle, on the Gemini BITRIA platform, using the Gemini exchange and its custodial services. The Bitwise BTC/ETH Equal Weight SMA strategy will provide investors with equal exposure to crypto’s two leading assets, bitcoin and ether.

Customer assets invested in the Bitwise BTC/ETH Equal Weight SMA strategy will be held in Gemini’s industry-leading custody and exchange infrastructure, an institutional-grade storage solution optimized to provide maximum security and access to liquidity. As a New York limited purpose trust company and qualified custodian, Gemini is regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services, one of the most sophisticated financial regulators in the world. The security of our clients’ assets is our top priority.

Gemini BITRIA offers financial advisors and wealth managers access to a large swath of the crypto ecosystem and the ability to manage client portfolios seamlessly from one interface. BITRIA's Digital Asset Separately Managed Account (SMA) and Digital Turnkey Asset Management Platform (DTAMP) have been integrated into Gemini's platform, empowering managers with a host of features to help them meet the rising demand from clients for regulated and secure access to crypto.

Bitwise’s SMA strategy of equal exposure to bitcoin and ether gives investors a compelling way to participate in crypto via two widely-held assets with distinct use cases. The offering through Bitwise on the Gemini BITRIA platform is particularly relevant for financial advisors looking to actively manage their clients’ exposure to crypto in coordination with their broader investment plans, offering portfolio rebalancing, fee collection and billing, account planning, and integrated reporting in all major portfolio accounting solutions.

The Bitwise BTC/ETH Equal Weight SMA will be made available by Bitwise to both accredited and non-accredited investors, is not subject to investment minimums, and offers daily liquidity.
