BREAKING: 21Shares Doubles Down – Files for Two Game-Changing Crypto ETFs With SEC

Crypto's institutional invasion accelerates as 21Shares lobs two more ETF grenades at the SEC's gates.

Wall Street's worst-kept secret? The suits want crypto exposure without the hassle of self-custody. 21Shares just handed them a shiny new on-ramp.

The Details:

- Dual ETF filings hit SEC desks this morning

- Exact crypto targets undisclosed (but let's be real—it's Bitcoin and Ethereum)

- Coming hot on heels of spot Bitcoin ETF approvals

Why This Matters:

The SEC's resistance is crumbling faster than a shitcoin in a bear market. Each new filing normalizes crypto in traditional portfolios—whether the old guard likes it or not.

Bottom Line: Another brick in the wall of institutional adoption. Just don't expect the usual finance bros to understand private keys.

21Shares, a veteran crypto investment company with more than $11 billion in assets under management (AUM), has announced a strategic partnership with Teucrium, an asset management company focused on commodity and futures ETFs. Through the strategic partnership, 21Shares announced that it has filed two Funds – the 21Shares FTSE Crypto 10 Index ETF and the 21Shares FTSE Crypto 10 ex-BTC Index ETF – with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The 21Shares FTSE Crypto 10 Index ETF intends to track a market-cap-weighted index of the top ten largest crypto assets globally. On the other hand, the 21Shares FTSE Crypto 10 ex-BTC Index ETF tracks a separate FTSE Russell index that excludes Bitcoin.

“Investors are increasingly looking for diversified and easy-to-access ways to participate in the long-term growth of digital assets, and 21Shares aims to provide ETF structures to satisfy this demand, subject to regulatory approval,” Federico Brokate, Head of U.S. Business at 21Shares, noted. 

21Shares Focuses on Crypto Tokenization Amid Regulatory Clarity

The two crypto funds by 21Shares tap into tested regulations for securities and tokenization in the United States. For instance, the two funds will be structured under the 1940 Act funds, and offer investors a more familiar taxation. 

“The methodology and structure behind our digital asset pricing and indices were developed to give investors strategic allocation tools”, said Kristen Mierzwa, Head of Digital Assets at FTSE Russell.

The tokenization of crypto assets, which is under the jurisdiction of the SEC, will play a crucial role in the mainstream adoption of digital assets by institutional investors. Already, President Donald TRUMP has signed into law the GENIUS Act after a majority supported it in the Senate and the House of Representatives.
