Bitwise files to list a spot Aptos ETF — the 36th largest cryptocurrency

Bitwise filed a spot ETF application for Aptos on March 5, a layer-1 blockchain founded by two former Facebook employees once touted as a “Solana killer.”
Crypto asset manager Bitwise has filed to list a spot Aptos exchange-traded fund in the US — a token created by a team led by two former Facebook (now Meta) employees in 2022.
Bitwise filed an S-1 registration statement to list the Bitwise Aptos (APT) ETF on March 5, eight days after Bitwise indicated it would make such a filing when it registered a trust linked to the Aptos ETF in Delaware on Feb. 28.
The Aptos filing adds to the list of altcoins currently in the line to win the securities regulator’s approval.
