Bitwise CEO Says Bitcoin ETF In-Kind Creation Minimum Falls to $1M from $50M
The collapse in minimum in-kind creation size from $50 million to $1 million is a structural shift in who can access bitcoin ETF plumbing, not just a cost tweak. It matters most for smaller institutions and professional counterparties that were previously shut out of in-kind transactions, broadening the set of participants able to interact with the ETF wrapper directly. Whether this lower threshold translates into meaningfully wider participation, or remains a niche operational change, is the open question worth watching.
