Bitwise Asset Management announced the launch of a new exchange-traded product (ETP) focused on staking the Aptos network's native token. The ETP will trade under the ticker 'APTB' on the SIX Swiss Exchange, marking the first of its kind.

ETP Staking Model and Investor Benefits

Staking allows token holders to earn rewards by helping validate transactions on Proof of Stake (PoS) networks like Aptos. Bitwise's ETP structure enables investors to indirectly stake their holdings through a secure and regulated framework, bypassing the technical complexities usually associated with staking.

Major Milestone for Aptos on a Regulated Market

The Aptos Staking ETP by Bitwise provides regulated market access to staking for both retail and institutional investors. As the Bitwise CEO stated, this product expands access to next-generation blockchain assets. The Aptos network has demonstrated high performance since its 2022 launch and is widely used by companies like Microsoft, Amazon, and Mastercard.

Potential Shift in U.S. Staking Regulations

Recent regulatory developments in the U.S., including the approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETPs, have led crypto stakeholders to anticipate possible staking approvals for U.S.-based ETFs. For now, Europe remains at the forefront of staking-focused products, offering diverse opportunities to investors.

The launch of Bitwise's Aptos Staking ETP marks a significant development in crypto financial products, particularly for the European market, and opens new opportunities for investors.
