Fetched to the beat: Bitwise has also filed an ETF for NEAR—U.S. SEC filings show that the Bitwise NEAR ETF has submitted Form 8-A, seeking to register ordinary beneficial interests for trading on the NYSE Arca.

The initiator is Bitwise Investment Advisers. The related S-1 was filed as early as September 16; this time, the 8-A was signed on September 24 by COO Teddy Fusaro. Form 8-A does not mean approval, but the process of getting the listing registered is already underway.

Crypto ETFs have been expanding from BTC and ETH into long-tail assets, and the NEAR track has pushed one more step forward.$NEAR #crypto ETF
