Grayscale Actively Transforming, Submits Application for Privacy Coin ETF
It was expected that Grayscale would transform all its closed-end funds into ETFs, but it was surprising that they first applied for a privacy coin ZEC ETF instead of a major competitive coin.
However, Nate Geraci, co-founder of The ETF Institute, cited documents indicating that he believes Grayscale expanding its ETF product lineup is a wise move.
Previously reported, both Binance and OKX chose to delist several privacy coins without specifying the exact reasons.
Binance delisted privacy coin Monero XMR, cross-chain bridge coin MULTI, and other well-known coins, marking the end of different eras in narrative
Grayscale files for Privacy ETF…
Index-based & would track cos involved in data security & protection, cybersecurity products & services incl blockchain-based technology solutions, etc.
Would also hold Grayscale Zcash Trust.
IMO, smart move for Grayscale to expand ETF lineup. pic.twitter.com/sS0cjDuh7U
