Asset manager 21Shares has filed applications with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for two cryptocurrency-focused exchange-traded funds.
The filings propose the 21Shares FTSE Crypto 10 Index ETF and the 21Shares FTSE Crypto 10 ex-BTC Index ETF. The former will track the ten largest digital assets by market capitalization, while the latter excludes Bitcoin to focus solely on other leading cryptocurrencies in the index.
These products aim to provide U.S. investors with diversified exposure to the core cryptocurrency market through regulated investment vehicles. The initiative represents a continued push to broaden mainstream accessibility to digital asset investing via traditional financial structures.
