## Summary

Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP is an exchange-traded product from Bitwise, launched in 2024. It tracks the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate - USD - Benchmark Price Return. You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share. Its ongoing charge is 0.05% a year — about £5 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you.
