Hashdex is set to close and liquidate a Bitcoin exchange-traded fund holding roughly $14.26 million in assets, with trading in the product scheduled to end on Aug. 17. The move marks a wind-down of one of the asset manager's smaller Bitcoin ETF offerings.
Hashdex plans to close and liquidate the Bitcoin ETF, ending the product's life as a listed, tradable fund. The decision places the fund on a defined path toward liquidation rather than a continued market presence. For related coverage, see Hashdex Launches World’s First Spot XRP ETF in Brazil.
The fund carried about $14.26 million in assets at the time of the closure decision, placing it at the smaller end of the Bitcoin fund landscape. Hashdex is best known for its index-style crypto products, including a fund that recently expanded to seven assets by adding Cardano and Chainlink.
WHAT TO KNOW
The most actionable detail for holders is the trading end date. After Aug. 17, the fund is no longer expected to trade on the open market, which is the practical takeaway for anyone still holding shares. For related coverage, see Coldcard Vulnerability Enables Bitcoin Theft: What to Know.
For market watchers, the cutoff sets the boundary between the fund's active trading period and its liquidation phase. Investors tracking the position should treat that date as the point at which normal secondary-market activity in the product stops.

Details on redemption or payout mechanics beyond the trading halt are governed by the fund's own documentation, which Hashdex lists alongside its other products on its ETF site. Holders looking for the precise liquidation terms should consult those materials directly.
A fund of this size is small relative to the broader Bitcoin ETF segment, but its closure is a data point on product viability. A sub-$15 million fund exiting the market signals limited investor demand for that specific vehicle.
The retirement contrasts with Hashdex's continued push into new products, such as its launch of the world's first spot XRP ETF in Brazil. Together, the two moves suggest the issuer is pruning weaker single-asset funds while pressing ahead with newer offerings that sit alongside broader corporate Bitcoin activity shaping the market.
