On December 3, 2025, pursuant to a pending conversion of the Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF (the “Trust”) to an exchange-traded fund (the “Conversion”), the CSC Delaware Trust Company (the “Trustee”), as trustee of the Trust, caused a Certificate of Amendment to the Trust’s Certificate of Trust to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in order to change the name of the Trust from “Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund” to “Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF”. In addition, on December 3, 2025, Bitwise Investment Advisers, LLC (the “Sponsor”) and the Trustee, entered into a First Amended and Restated Trust Agreement of the Trust (the “A&R Trust Agreement”), which amended and restated the Trust Agreement of the Trust dated May 1, 2020 (the “Original Trust Agreement”). The A&R Trust Agreement shall become effective at the first time at which the common shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (the “Shares”) are listed on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”) and admitted to trading thereon and regular trading in the Shares has commended on the Exchange. The A&R Trust Agreement makes several modifications to the Original Trust Agreement, including the following:

Reflecting the change of the Trust’s name from “Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund” to “Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF.”

Changes necessary to reflect the pending conversion to an exchange-traded product, including, (1) changes to the calculation and payment of the Management Fee, and (2) providing the Trust with the ability to create or redeem its shares with Authorized Participants in creation or redemption baskets in exchange for delivery to the Trust or the distribution by the Trust of the amount of Crypto Assets or cash represented by the baskets being created or redeemed.

Item 8.01 Other Events

Subject to the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, the Shares are expected to be listed and begin trading on the Exchange under the new name, and the trading symbol “BITW”, on or about December 9, 2025. In connection with such listing, it is expected that the Shares will cease to be quoted on the OTCQX Best Market. No assurance can be given that the Shares will list and trade on the Sponsor’s anticipated timeline, or at all.
