PANews reported on November 28th that, according to CoinDesk, Bitwise has updated its application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for its spot Avalanche ETF. This revision changes the ETF's ticker symbol to BAVA and sets the sponsorship fee rate at 0.34%, currently the lowest among similar products. In comparison, VanEck's Avalanche ETF has a fee rate of 0.40%, and Grayscale's is 0.50%. The updated S-1 filing also states that the trust will be allowed to stake up to 70% of its AVAX holdings on Avalanche's proof-of-stake network to earn additional tokens. However, the issuer is considering deducting 12% of the proceeds as fees, with the remainder distributed to shareholders. Since competitors have not yet launched staking services, their fees are currently limited to sponsorship fees. Bitwise is also offering a full fee waiver for the first month on its initial $500 million in assets, aiming to position BAVA as the lowest-cost way for traditional investors to gain exposure to Avalanche and earn staking income.
