Yorkville America Equities is expanding its footprint in the digital asset market with new cryptocurrency ETF filings tied to President Donald Trump’s Truth Social brand. The asset manager recently submitted registration documents to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seeking approval for two new crypto-focused exchange-traded funds.
According to the SEC filing, Yorkville plans to launch the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ether ETF, designed to provide investors with exposure to the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). The proposed fund would give traditional investors access to crypto markets through a regulated investment vehicle, reflecting continued institutional demand for spot crypto ETFs.
In addition, the firm filed for the Truth Social Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF, a product focused on CRO, the native token of Crypto.com’s Cronos blockchain. Unlike most spot crypto ETFs currently on the market, this fund would incorporate staking rewards, allowing investors to potentially earn yield by participating in the proof-of-stake network. This staking component could differentiate the Cronos ETF in a market largely dominated by passive Bitcoin and Ethereum funds.
If approved by the SEC, both ETFs will be launched in partnership with Crypto.com. The platform is expected to act as digital asset custodian, liquidity provider, and staking services provider. Distribution would be handled through Foris Capital US LLC, an SEC-registered broker-dealer affiliated with Crypto.com.
Truth Social first entered the crypto ETF space in June 2025 with a filing for a spot Bitcoin ETF, followed by a Blue Chip Digital Asset ETF proposal targeting major altcoins. Neither product has launched yet. Meanwhile, President Trump’s ties to crypto ventures remain politically sensitive, particularly as lawmakers debate the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, which aims to establish clearer oversight of U.S. cryptocurrency markets.
