The post Bitwise Merges Crypto ETFs to Launch New Momentum-Driven Bitcoin Fund appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Asset management firm Bitwise is set to streamline its crypto ETF offerings, with plans to consolidate its three futures-based products into a unified offering in December, according to a recent SEC filing.
