Is a New Leader Emerging in the ETF Race? According to Grayscale, This Altcoin Has Outperformed Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Other Altcoins!

The wave of spot ETFs that began with the SEC's approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024 is now expanding to include many altcoins. According to an analysis by asset manager Grayscale, the spot ETF for Hyperliquid ($HYPE) has attracted significant investor interest. Grayscale's data indicates that, since its launch, the $HYPE spot ETF has outperformed spot ETFs for Bitcoin ($BTC), Ethereum ($ETH), Solana (SOL), and Ripple ($XRP) in terms of cumulative capital inflows relative to market capitalization. The firm highlighted that the $HYPE ETF had the strongest initial investor inflows and fastest start compared to its competitors over the same timeframe. While Bitcoin ETFs showed the most consistent inflow trend and Ethereum ETFs saw growth in the mid-period, and both Solana and XRP ETFs also saw high early interest, Grayscale stated that the $HYPE ETF's launch performance was historically the most powerful, suggesting sustained high investor demand for the asset.

Grayscale plans regular cash payouts from ETH, SOL staking rewards

Asset manager Grayscale plans to introduce regular cash distributions from staking rewards for its Ethereum (ETHE) and Solana (GSOL) exchange-traded products. Filed with the SEC, amendments to the trust agreements around August 7 would require converting staking rewards into cash at least quarterly and distributing net proceeds to shareholders. This aims to make staking yields more accessible to traditional investors by eliminating the need to directly manage crypto assets. Distribution amounts will vary based on rewards earned and trust expenses. Grayscale, which enabled staking for these funds in October 2025 and made its first ETHE distribution in January, stated the changes align with IRS tax guidance. As of recent data, ETHE held $1.22 billion in assets with a 2.67% gross staking reward rate, while GSOL held $101.13 million with a 6.10% rate.

Grayscale Files First Spot Worldcoin ETF With SEC Under GWLD Ticker

Grayscale Investments has filed with the SEC to launch a Worldcoin spot ETF (ticker GWLD), aiming to provide U.S. investors regulated access to the token. The filing coincided with WLD trading near its all-time low, though the news triggered an 8% price surge. The application also highlights potential risks, including high token concentration among top wallets and ongoing insider token unlocks through 2028, which could create selling pressure. Additionally, Worldcoin's use of biometric data presents unique regulatory challenges. Grayscale's move expands its crypto ETF lineup ahead of potential competitors, though SEC approval remains uncertain.

Grayscale files for a Worldcoin ETF as WLD jumps 8% – What’s next?

Grayscale has filed an S-1 form with the SEC to launch a Worldcoin (WLD) ETF, planning to list it on Nasdaq under the ticker "GWLD." The fund is structured as a Delaware statutory trust designed to hold WLD tokens, offering indirect price exposure. The announcement coincided with an 8% surge in WLD's price. The filing clarifies the ETF is not a regulated commodity pool, with custody handled by BitGo and administrative roles assigned to BNY Mellon and CSC Delaware Trust Company. Grayscale's other ETFs showed mixed flows recently, with Bitcoin ETF inflows not significantly impacting prices.

Here’s why Strategy’s $216M Bitcoin sale may not be bearish after all

Strategy's recent disclosure of a $216M Bitcoin sale, part of a larger $1.25B plan, did not trigger the severe market downturn some analysts feared. Instead, Bitcoin's price remained stable above $63K. Grayscale Research suggests this move could actually support BTC price stability by restoring confidence in Strategy's financial structure and helping the asset find a more durable bottom. This contrasts with the sharp drop seen in early June after a much smaller BTC sale. The firm's preferred stock (STRC) also rebounded following the announcement. While critics like Peter Schiff point to potential losses, the muted market reaction has led some analysts to view the resilience as a potential sign of a market bottom.

Grayscale's Latest Research: What is Solana's Next Growth Engine?

Grayscale's latest report, "Solana: Crypto's Financial Bazaar," signals a shift in how the market views Solana, moving beyond its high-performance and meme-centric reputation. The report frames Solana as an evolving application platform for large-scale economic activity, akin to a bustling digital marketplace. The analysis highlights that public chain competition has moved past raw throughput (TPS) to focus on genuine economic activity—daily users, transaction volume, and real revenue. Solana's metrics, such as over 1,000 dApps, 100M+ daily transactions, and ~4.3M daily active users, showcase this shift toward application-layer prosperity. The report identifies three key growth drivers: 1. **Jupiter**: Evolving from a DEX aggregator to a core liquidity hub and comprehensive financial platform for Solana's DeFi. 2. **Pump.fun**: Demonstrates Solana's capacity for consumer-scale applications, attracting millions of users and generating significant, sustainable revenue, validating network stability under high load. 3. **Helium & DePIN**: Represents expansion into real-world infrastructure, connecting blockchain to physical resources like wireless networks and positioning services, opening new long-term use cases. Solana Foundation's recent focus aligns with this broader vision, emphasizing AI Agents (for machine-to-machine transactions), payments, stablecoins, and Real-World Assets (RWA) to build a sustainable growth model beyond cyclical trends. While challenges remain—such as value capture for SOL and maintaining ecosystem sustainability beyond hot trends—institutional interest is growing due to Solana's maturing application business models, expanding payment/stablecoin ecosystem, and persistent developer activity. The competition is no longer about speed alone, but about which network can foster the most vibrant and valuable digital economy.

Grayscale: After Halving, BTC is Nearing the Bottom of This Cycle

Grayscale Research suggests Bitcoin's recent decline below $60,000, a >50% drop from its October peak, represents a cyclical correction within a long-term uptrend rather than a trend reversal. Key factors behind the pullback include a shift in market expectations toward Federal Reserve rate hikes under new Chair Kevin Warsh, uncertainty around the CLARITY Act's Senate passage, pressure on leveraged entities like Strategy, and concerns over quantum computing risks. The path out of the current bear market hinges on upcoming catalysts. An optimistic scenario, where the CLARITY Act passes, leverage is contained, and the Fed refrains from hiking, could mean Bitcoin is nearing its cycle bottom. A pessimistic scenario, featuring legislative failure, further deleveraging, and Fed rate hikes, could lead to additional moderate downside. Grayscale does not expect a historically deep ~80% drawdown due to a more measured prior bull run and stickier institutional demand. Despite short-term headwinds, Grayscale remains highly optimistic about crypto's long-term structural prospects, driven by institutional adoption of public blockchains, unsustainable government debt, declining trust in intermediaries, and AI's potential demand for alternative systems. The report concludes that while the exact cycle low depends on near-term catalysts, current valuations present an attractive entry point for long-term investors betting on the decade-ahead growth of digital assets.

‘Sale of…’ – Inside Grayscale’s plan to erase Strategy’s $14B unrealized loss

Grayscale's Head of Research, Zach Pandl, suggests that MicroStrategy (Strategy) could sell at least $3 billion worth of its Bitcoin holdings to cover its near-term cash obligations. This move, while reducing its BTC reserves, is presented as a way to restore market confidence by improving liquidity and reducing refinancing risk, as opposed to raising dividends on its preferred shares. This discussion arises amid significant challenges for the company: its stock (MSTR) has fallen sharply, it holds an approximately $14 billion unrealized loss on its massive Bitcoin treasury (847,363 BTC valued at $50.9 billion), and a key valuation metric—the MicroStrategy Price-to-BTC Reserve Ratio—has declined, indicating waning investor confidence in its Bitcoin-focused strategy.

Grayscale cuts fees ahead of MSOL launch – Will institutions drive Solana’s next rally?

Grayscale has reduced the fee for its Spot Solana (SOL) ETF from 0.35% to 0.19%, positioning it among the lowest-cost Solana ETFs. This move is seen as a competitive response to Morgan Stanley's planned launch of a Solana ETF (MSOL) with an even lower 0.14% fee. While the broader crypto market is weak, with over $100 billion flowing out recently, institutional interest in Solana appears to be growing strategically. This interest is underpinned by Solana's on-chain strength, including a record Real-World Asset (RWA) ecosystem value surpassing $3.10 billion. Additional institutional support comes from listings like the Solana ETF on the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange. Analysts suggest these converging signals—ETF competition, sustained on-chain activity, and institutional positioning—could set the stage for a stronger institutional cycle for SOL in Q3, potentially diverging from broader market weakness.

Grayscale: These 15 Profitable Crypto Protocols Are Severely Undervalued

Grayscale Research identifies 15 top-revenue crypto protocols trading at significant valuation discounts, with many at single-digit or even 1x revenue multiples. Protocols like Pump.fun, PancakeSwap, and Meteora have market capitalizations roughly equal to their annual revenue. The report argues these financially-focused protocols (DEXs, lending, staking) are fundamentally undervalued and could benefit from the potential passage of the CLARITY Act, expected as soon as next month. This legislation aims to clarify digital asset regulation, potentially reducing institutional barriers and driving on-chain activity. The analysis breaks down the protocols into three groups: the "1x Club" (market cap ≈ revenue), mid-tier protocols with 3-9x multiples (e.g., Aave, Lido, Jupiter), and high-multiple protocols like Hyperliquid (15x) and Uniswap (37x), where valuation reflects future potential rather than current cash flows. Grayscale applies a traditional DCF model to Aave, suggesting a one-year price target of ~$175, representing ~130% upside from current levels. The report notes a risk-off macro environment since the Iran conflict has further compressed valuations, creating a potential entry window. The conclusion highlights that while the valuation data presents an intriguing opportunity, the investment thesis is contingent on the CLARITY Act's passage and subsequent institutional capital flows. Investors are cautioned to consider Grayscale's inherent conflict of interest as a crypto asset manager with products tied to these assets.
