Bitwise Commits Ethereum ETF Profits to Development Support
Bitwise Asset Management has pledged to donate 10% of the profits from its new Ethereum ETF (ETHW) to organizations focused on Ethereum development.
Bitwise’s ETHW ETF, launching on July 23, will invest directly in ETH. The management fee is initially set at 0.20%, but will be waived for the first six months on the first $500 million in assets. The profits allocated for donation will support the Protocol Guild and PBS Foundation, which are key to advancing the Ethereum network.
Bitwise CTO Hong Kim highlighted the significance of this initiative, emphasizing the role of community-supported development in Ethereum’s evolution. The firm will also transparently disclose all ETH holdings related to the ETF.

Meanwhile, Ethereum’s price has experienced fluctuations despite the ETF approval, with recent trading reflecting investor anticipation of a market rebound.

"New Federal Reserve News Agency": The Federal Reserve is set to raise interest rates next week, but a single rate hike won't solve the problem
Nick Timiraos from "The New Federal Reserve News Agency" recently wrote that investors have largely concluded that the Federal Reserve will make its first interest rate hike in three years next week, but the harder question is what will happen afterward. Since almost no one inside the Fed believes that a single 25 basis point rate hike is enough to bring down inflation, a decision to raise rates next week would reflect the judgment that rates were previously set at the wrong level, and a single hike cannot solve the problem. Since the 1990s, the Fed has only had one "one-time" rate hike.
