▶️Bitwise launches ETF to invest in companies holding 💸Bitcoin
📌On December 27, asset management company Bitwise filed a registration application with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) with the intention of launching a new ETF called "Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF", aiming to invest in companies that reserve large amounts of Bitcoin in the treasury.
📌Specifically, to be "targeted" by this ETF, companies must meet strict criteria including:
➕Holding at least 1,000 BTC in the treasury.
➕Market capitalization over 100 million USD, ensuring the scale and stability of the business.
➕Having an average daily trading volume of over 1 million USD, allowing the fund to easily buy and sell stocks.
➕The free float ratio is less than 10%, ensuring liquidity and accessibility for investors.
➡️The unique point of Bitwise's new ETF is also in the way it allocates weights. Instead of relying on market capitalization like traditional ETFs, this fund will use a new approach of weighting based on the value of Bitcoin held by each company.
➡️This means that small and medium-sized companies that invest heavily in Bitcoin can account for a large proportion, even surpassing large corporations with modest amounts of Bitcoin compared to their size.

Therefore, traders in the growth season need to analyze and identify opportunities and the right timing to enter and exit the market reasonably.

Bitcoin ETF funds set a record outflow of 672 million USD, the highest in history
According to data from Farside Investors, 11 U.S. Bitcoin ETF funds just marked their worst trading day ever with a total outflow exceeding 671.9 million USD, surpassing the previous record of 564 million USD from May 1st.
Leading the sell-off during the trading session on December 19 (U.S. time) was Fidelity's FBTC fund with an outflow of 208.5 million USD, also the highest in the fund's 12-month history.
Meanwhile, the BTC fund from Grayscale, which launched in July, also reported an outflow of 188.6 million USD, marking its worst performance to date. ARKB from Ark Invest contributed over 108 million USD to the total outflow during the recent trading session.
IBIT from BlackRock recorded no inflow or outflow.
This is seen as a reaction from Wall Street investors following the latest comments from the Fed Chair regarding not maintaining a continuous rate cut throughout 2025 as previously expected, after data showed that U.S. inflation is not cooling as Federal Reserve officials had hoped.

Altcoins with a market capitalization of $20M not yet listed on Binance
Recent examples can be cited, such as VELODROME increasing by 200% after the Binance listing announcement, or AVA from Travala rising by 300% after CZ revealed Binance's investment. Similarly, Magic Eden (ME), ORCA, ACX... tokens participating in Binance Launchpool, Binance airdrops... all saw significant increases after announcements.
Below is a list of 35 Altcoins with a market capitalization of $20 million or more, which have been listed on exchanges such as OKX/Bitget/ByBit but are still not listed on Binance.
Tokens like these often already have an existing community, available liquidity, and benefit from the objective advantage of an uptrend... so the opportunity for them to be listed on Binance is higher. The lower the market capitalization of the tokens, the better the potential for a "pump".
