According to the filing, BlackRock submitted a preliminary registration to the SEC on October 19, 2026 for the proposed iShares Bitcoin Managed Protection ETF, ticker PBIT. This ETF seeks to deliver capped upside participation in bitcoin exposure via options on IBIT, along with a measure of downside protection—though neither the level of protection nor any payout caps are guaranteed or fixed. The fund will not hold bitcoin directly; instead, it will use a strategy involving call options on IBIT and similar reference assets, combined with cash and short-term fixed income. The SEC filing is currently in draft form with key details such as management fees, launch date, and listing exchange not yet disclosed. If approved per standard SEC timelines, the filing could become effective around January 2, 2027, but there is no confirmed launch date.
