The decision lets Grayscale Investments convert its Digital Large Cap Fund (ticker GDLC) into an ETF, giving US investors regulated access to multiple digital tokens in one product. The fund allocates more than 70% to Bitcoin and around 17% to Ether, with the balance spread across XRP, Solana and Cardano, according to a fact sheet. Grayscale’s Chief Communications Officer Andrea Williams confirmed the development.
