An exchange-traded fund started by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss to invest in the virtual currency bitcoin will be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Winklevoss twins, who claimed Mark Zuckerberg stole their idea for a social-networking website to start Facebook Inc., are seeking to open the Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust as the first ETF tracking a virtual asset. Their Winklevoss Capital Management LLC, based in New York, is the fund’s sponsor.
