Grayscale Launches Avalanche Trust to Expand Crypto Investment Options
Grayscale Investments has introduced a new fund focused on Avalanche's native token, AVAX, as announced on August 22.
This fund , named the Grayscale Avalanche Trust, is designed to give investors exposure to Avalanche, a smart contract platform that emphasizes scalability, security, and decentralization.
Avalanche is a layer-1 blockchain known for its efforts in tokenizing real-world assets (RWAs) like real estate and commodities. In a related move, Franklin Templeton expanded its blockchain-based money market fund to the Avalanche network on the same day.
According to Grayscale’s head of product and research, Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary, the trust will enable investors to participate in Avalanche’s growth, especially in RWA tokenization, supported by its strategic partnerships and multi-chain framework. This trust is part of Grayscale’s extensive portfolio of over 20 crypto investment products, which includes non-exchange-traded options available only to qualified investors.
