- Bitwise’s proposed ETF would track the value of the NEAR token, net of expenses
- Filing an S-1 with the SEC is a key regulatory step toward offering a publicly traded ETF
- NEAR Protocol is gaining attention for its scalability and developer-friendly ecosystem
- This development reflects increasing momentum for crypto ETFs following recent approvals
