The firm said Wednesday the WisdomTree Bitcoin ETP tracks the spot price of bitcoin has a total expense ratio of 0.95%, and is trading under the ticker “WBIT.”
WisdomTree said the product will give investors access to bitcoin without having to hold the crypto directly, store private access keys or interact with the digital currency infrastructure in any way. In March, WisdomTree said it had taken on Coinbase as its second custodian for the WisdomTree Bitcoin ETP.

The listing comes against the backdrop of a looming decision by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) over whether to approve the first bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) for U.S. investors.
On April 9, the SEC officially started its review of WisdomTree’s bitcoin ETF application.
So far, the SEC has blocked all attempts at launching such a vehicle, rejecting over a dozen applications in past years.
That hasn’t stopped Galaxy Digital, NYDIG, SkyBridge Capital and others from submitting bitcoin ETF applications to the SEC in recent months.
