Bitwise, RFG Launch Crypto Model Portfolios for $8B Advisor Network

Bitwise Asset Management has partnered with RFG Advisory to roll out crypto model portfolios across an advisor network representing $8 billion in assets under management. RFG Advisory, an award-winning registered investment advisor platform, operates a network of more than 150 advisors who now have access to Bitwise's pre-constructed cryptocurrency model portfolios for client deployment.

The initiative reflects growing institutional demand for structured cryptocurrency exposure within traditional wealth management channels. Rather than requiring advisors to construct crypto allocations independently, Bitwise's model portfolios provide diversified, pre-built strategies that advisors can implement for client accounts. This approach streamlines the process of establishing cryptocurrency "sleeves" within broader portfolio construction—a significant consideration given regulatory and operational complexity historically associated with crypto asset management.

RFG Advisory's emphasis on innovation and forward-thinking strategy positions the platform as an ideal distribution partner for Bitwise. With 150+ advisors operating within the RFG ecosystem and $8 billion in aggregate AUM, the network represents meaningful scale in the independent advisor channel. The partnership enables these advisors to offer cryptocurrency exposure to clients through professionally managed models rather than requiring individual expertise in digital asset selection and portfolio construction.

The announcement underscores ongoing institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies as legitimate portfolio components. By embedding crypto models within established RIA infrastructure, Bitwise extends its market reach into channels traditionally focused on conventional asset classes, potentially accelerating mainstream acceptance of digital assets in advisor-directed wealth management.
