Truth Social files for ETF holding BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP and CRO
Truth Social, the media platform affiliated with US President Donald Trump, has submitted a new application to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a spot crypto exchange-traded fund (ETF).
The proposed vehicle, titled the Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF, aims to provide direct exposure to a basket of leading digital assets, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, and Cronos (CRO).
The news had a limited market impact on more established digital assets like BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP. However, it boosted CRO’s value by more than 12% to a monthly high of $0.09202.
Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF
According to the July 8 SEC filing, the ETF portfolio will be structured to hold approximately 70% Bitcoin, 15% Ethereum, 8% Solana, 5% Cronos, and 2% XRP by value.
If approved, the ETF will be listed and traded on NYSE Arca, though the fund’s ticker symbol has not yet been disclosed.
The proposed ETF will operate as a passive investment vehicle, tracking the market prices of its underlying crypto without using leverage, derivatives, or speculative trading strategies. The fund will also participate in staking for assets such as Ethereum, Solana, and Cronos, enabling it to generate staking rewards.
The filing names Crypto.com’s institutional arm, Foris DAX Trust Company, as the custodian responsible for safeguarding the fund’s assets.
Yorkville America Digital Asset Management will act as the ETF’s sponsor, overseeing operations and compliance. CF Benchmarks Ltd., a well-known index provider, will be tasked with calculating and publishing US dollar valuations for the fund’s digital assets.
In addition, the Trust may allow in-kind transactions, where Authorized Participants exchange crypto directly for ETF shares, if the NYSE Arca receives the necessary regulatory approval. However, the timeline for this approval remains uncertain.

This application follows Trump Media’s earlier filing for a separate spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF, which proposes a simpler 75% BTC and 25% ETH allocation.
Both filings arrive as the SEC weighs a streamlined process for listing crypto ETFs, potentially signaling broader institutional adoption soon.
Nate Geraci, president of NovaDiusWealth, opined that the industry might not see any new ETF approval until this framework is implemented. He said:
“Some issuers don’t believe this framework will be fully implemented until early fall. So, no spot crypto ETF approvals until then.”

AI investment enters the "Trough of Disillusionment", the next 18 months will be a life-or-death test!
Goldman Sachs believes that the AI investment cycle is currently in the "trough of disillusionment," but this is not the first time. The core contradiction lies in the fact that the business models of new cloud computing providers are highly dependent on end-user returns from AI spending, while currently "there are basically zero companies that can attribute profits to AI." Social Capital founder Palihapitiya has clearly defined an 18-month key window, during which the market will decide which AI business models are sustainable and which are not.
Anthropic's Core Concern: Revenue Can Be Withdrawn at Any Time, but Computing Power Costs Are Locked in for up to 20 Years
Zheshang Securities believes that Anthropic's revenue is mainly based on usage-based billing, with remaining performance obligations covering only about 5.1 months of annualized revenue, while compute power costs are already locked in with $895.4 billion in irrevocable commitments, some extending as far as 2045. Revenues can be reduced at any time, but costs are non-exitable, creating a highly asymmetric maturity gap between the two—this is the company's real core constraint.
Triple Pressure from the Federal Reserve, Treasury, and Congress; Goldman Sachs: Liquidity Crisis May Occur in 2027
Goldman Sachs warns that the reserve ratio of bank assets has dropped to around 11%, only slightly above the crisis trough of 2019. In the second half of 2027, a deadlock in debt ceiling negotiations will force the Treasury to rebuild the TGA, triggering a "perfect storm" of a sharp drop in reserves and a surge in T-bill supply; combined with stalled money market fund buying, this will create a huge liquidity black hole. The Federal Reserve could be forced into the awkward position of lowering interest rates and launching large-scale bond purchases to rescue the market.
