​Crypto index and ETF provider Bitwise Investments has updated its Bitwise Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF, adding two new entrants: Fold Holdings and Bitdeer Technologies.

Fold Holdings Inc., a Phoenix-based financial services company known for its Bitcoin rewards debit cards, purchased 10 BTC at a price of $87,500 in February, solidifying its place among top corporate holders of digital gold. According to Bitwise, Fold Holdings now owns 1,485 BTC, valued at over $124 million.

Bitdeer Technologies, a publicly traded Bitcoin mining company listed on Nasdaq, operates in the U.S., Norway, and Bhutan. Bitdeer currently holds 1,090 BTC, worth more than $91 million.

The 1,000+ BTC club grows

Bitwise announced the ETF update in a post on social media platform X, stating its goal is to track companies holding more than 1,000 BTC.

“The index now includes 22 companies holding a combined 648,000+ BTC (worth over $54 billion) — that’s 3.2% of total BTC supply,” Bitwise reported.

The company also clarified that its fund does not invest directly in Bitcoin or through derivative products referencing Bitcoin.

As of March 25, MicroStrategy leads the index with 506,137 BTC worth over $33.7 billion, accounting for the highest index weight of 22.64%. It’s followed by Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA) and Riot Platforms, with weights of 10.67% and 10.04%, respectively. Metaplanet ranks fourth with a 5% index weight based on its Bitcoin holdings.
