In this context, GDLC offers exposure to more than 90% of the cryptocurrency market capitalization through a single fund.
Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg said: “Today's listing marks a historic milestone for the entire crypto ETP world. The Grayscale CoinDesk Crypto 5 ETF has been meeting the growing demand from investors for exposure to crypto in various ways for nearly a decade, and investors are increasingly turning to a variety of ETP packages for their crypto exposures. GDLC is a specially designed innovation created to meet this demand, providing simple and transparent access to the most liquid and largest crypto assets.” This is not a recommendation.
