yesterday / 20:37 3 sources positive

Key takeaways:

  • Bitwise's European expansion signals growing institutional demand for regulated crypto access beyond traditional markets.
  • The SEK-denominated ETPs could drive capital inflows into BTC, ETH, and SOL from Swedish retail investors.
  • Watch for accelerated ETF launches in 2026 as streamlined SEC approvals lower market entry barriers.

Digital asset manager Bitwise has listed seven cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) denominated in Swedish krona (SEK) on Nasdaq Stockholm, providing Swedish investors with regulated exposure to major digital assets. According to an announcement, the SEK-denominated ETPs are available to both retail and professional investors through existing brokerage accounts and may qualify for Sweden's tax-advantaged ISK savings structure, depending on the platform.

The product suite includes: the Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP; spot Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) products backed by institutional custody; staking-linked ETPs tied to ETH and Solana (SOL); a diversified MSCI Digital Assets Select 20 ETP tracking the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization; and a hybrid product combining exposure to Bitcoin and gold.

The company stated that all Bitwise ETPs are fully backed by the underlying crypto assets held in institutional cold storage, with holdings verified through weekly independent audits. Bitwise has appointed Marco Poblete and Andre Havas to oversee its expansion across the Nordic region.

This launch in Sweden builds on Bitwise's broader European expansion strategy, which began with the acquisition of ETC Group in August 2024. In April 2025, the company listed four Bitcoin and Ether ETPs on the London Stock Exchange, followed by the listing of five crypto funds on the SIX Swiss Exchange in September 2025.

Beyond Europe, Bitwise expanded its U.S. presence in 2025 as regulatory clarity improved. In September 2025, Bitwise filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a proposed Stablecoin & Tokenization ETF. In October 2025, the company launched the Solana Staking ETF (BSOL) on the New York Stock Exchange. In December 2025, Bitwise filed with the SEC to launch a proposed spot Sui ETF tracking the price of the Sui (SUI) token, with Coinbase named as custodian.

According to Bitwise researcher Ryan Rasmussen, more than 100 crypto exchange-traded products may launch in 2026 after the SEC adopted generic listing standards in September 2025 designed to significantly reduce approval timelines.
