Bitwise crypto ETFs report higher assets in Q3 as altcoin prices climb

what happened

TradingView summaries, based on quarterly 10-Q reports filed with the SEC, show that several Bitwise crypto ETFs reported results for the third quarter of 2026. Net assets at most funds rose mainly because the underlying tokens appreciated and investors created new shares.

The Avalanche fund received 20,180.1592 AVAX in staking rewards worth $151,141, while the token's price rose from $6.57 to $10.92. The Chainlink fund posted net income of $25.11 million as LINK climbed from $7.20 to $14.28, and share creations added $20.1 million. The Hyperliquid fund, which began operations in May 2026, lifted net assets from $128.2 million to $193.1 million.

The Solana fund, launched in October 2025, reported a $390.6 million increase in net assets from operations, driven mainly by Solana's price gain and staking income. The NEAR fund started trading on NYSE Arca on September 29, 2026.

why it matters

For markets, these filings are a record of money flowing into altcoin products rather than macro data: the rise in fund assets reflects token revaluation and capital inflows into ETFs. Such reports help gauge investor interest in individual crypto assets, but they do not by themselves signal where prices will go next.
