As the day draws to a close, Franklin has submitted a new crypto ETF application, and the details are significant. Following the approval of BTC and ETH ETF applications, things have become much easier for ETF issuers. Franklin, which manages trillion-dollar assets, has just submitted its new crypto ETF application to the SEC.
New Crypto ETF
After overcoming procedural hurdles with BTC and ETH approvals, companies are accelerating their applications for alternative ETFs. Recently, we saw two separate spot ETF applications for SOL Coin. Now, Franklin has announced an ETF named “Crypto Index ETF.” The underlying assets will be BTC and ETH. It is mentioned that alternative cryptocurrencies besides BTC and ETH could be included in the index.
Procedural Hurdles and Future Plans
If the inclusion of a third underlying asset is deemed appropriate, necessary approvals will be obtained to do so. This opens the door to additional assets like SOL or XRP. Although BTC and ETH will be held, details about the fund’s distribution percentages are not yet visible.
Details About the Application
The application for listing on CBOE indicates that cryptocurrencies, other than BTC and ETH, could be added to the index. This could include additional assets like SOL or XRP, pending appropriate approvals.
Thus, Franklin continues to expand its crypto ETF offerings, providing investors with more opportunities to diversify their portfolios.
