According to the source, a Grayscale ETF tracking XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA) is expected to list on a U.S. exchange after an SEC pause, but traders should only act once an SEC-approved 19b-4 for the listing venue and an effective S-1 appear on EDGAR. Source: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; SEC EDGAR. Key trading checkpoints are the SEC approval order on the exchange’s 19b-4 docket, the issuer’s S-1 effectiveness on EDGAR, and an exchange listing notice with ticker and first-trade date, as these filings govern launch timing and feasibility.

Until those filings are public, an ETF cannot legally launch in the U.S., so headline-driven positions should be deferred in favor of monitoring the official dockets.

According to @santimentfeed, Litecoin outpaced other altcoins as wallets holding 1,000+ LTC accumulated 181,000 additional LTC in the last 24 hours, based on Santiment on-chain data (source: @santimentfeed). @santimentfeed attributed the activity to bullish catalysts, including Grayscale’s Litecoin ETF filing and MEI Pharma, now Lite Strategy, securing $100 million in LTC for its treasury (source: @santimentfeed). For traders, this whale cohort inflow highlights near-term relative strength in LTC versus the broader altcoin market, per the accumulation and performance noted by @santimentfeed (source: @santimentfeed).

According to @StockMKTNewz, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has initiated a review of its staff's approval for Grayscale's Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) to be converted into an Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). This action places a stay on the conversion, creating regulatory uncertainty for the fund's holdings, which include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA), as stated in a letter dated July 1. This specific regulatory hurdle contrasts with broader legislative efforts in Congress, such as the FIT21, STABLE, and CLARITY Acts, which aim to establish a clear federal framework for digital assets. The outcome of the SEC's review could directly impact the market sentiment and trading of the assets within the $755 million GDLC fund.

According to FarsideUK, U.S. spot Ethereum (ETH) ETFs experienced their largest single-day net outflow in June, totaling $11.3 million on Friday. This institutional pullback was primarily driven by a $19.7 million outflow from BlackRock’s ETHA ETF, its first negative flow of the month. In contrast, Grayscale’s ETHE and VanEck’s ETHV products attracted combined inflows of $8.4 million, partially offsetting the losses. The outflows coincided with a significant price dip where ETH briefly fell to $2,372.85 amid a volume spike nearly five times the daily average. However, the price quickly rebounded, establishing a strong technical support zone between $2,420 and $2,430, which has been validated by multiple low-volume tests suggesting accumulation. Key resistance for traders is now identified at the $2,480–$2,500 level.

According to @rovercrc, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially approved the conversion of Grayscale’s Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) into a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF). This new ETF provides investors with exposure to a basket of major cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP (XRP), and Cardano (ADA), as detailed in the filing. The fund, which holds nearly $755 million in assets under management, is heavily weighted towards Bitcoin, which constitutes about 80% of its holdings. The source notes that this approval allows investors to access the largest digital assets through a single, regulated product. Following this decision, the market will be watching for the SEC's verdict on the conversion of Bitwise's 10 Crypto Index Fund (BITW) into an ETF. Despite the positive regulatory news, market data shows the fund's key altcoin components have experienced recent downturns, with SOLUSDT down 7.3%, ADAUSDT down 7.5%, and XRPUSDT down 5.4% in the last 24 hours.

According to Dave (@ItsDave_ADA), there is a growing inquiry into whether Coinbase will support Cardano Native Assets, especially given its role as the designated custodian for the Grayscale Cardano ETF. This potential support could significantly impact Cardano trading volumes and liquidity if implemented, providing traders with more options for asset management and trading strategies.
