Sarasota, FL | July 8, 2025 – In a bold move bridging politics, finance, and the fast-evolving crypto world, Trump Media & Technology Group (NASDAQ, NYSE Texas: DJT), parent company of Truth Social, has filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch the Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF (Ticker: B.T.). The ETF aims to offer investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of leading cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin ($BTC), Ethereum ($ETH), Solana ($SOL), Cronos ($CRO), and Ripple ($XRP).

The filing, already trending on X (formerly Twitter), positions Truth Social to capitalize on the growing demand for regulated crypto investment vehicles.

What Is the Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF?

This exchange-traded fund is structured to track the price performance of a select basket of high-value cryptocurrencies. Unlike many single-asset crypto ETFs, this fund provides diversified exposure in one investment vehicle.

Proposed Allocation:

• Bitcoin ($BTC): 70%
• Ethereum ($ETH): 15%
• Solana ($SOL): 8%
• Cronos ($CRO): 5%
• Ripple ($XRP): 2%

Crypto.com has been selected as the fund’s exclusive custodian, staking and liquidity provider, and prime execution agent. The ETF will be sponsored by Yorkville America Digital and, pending SEC approval, listed on NYSE Arca.

Why This ETF Matters

The launch comes as institutional interest in crypto continues to grow, with spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs already managing billions. The Truth Social ETF stands out for several reasons:

• Diversification: Investors gain broad exposure to top-performing assets, reducing risk from individual volatility.
• Heavyweight Bitcoin Bias: A 70% allocation to Bitcoin targets long-term digital gold believers.
• Altcoin Presence: Including Solana, Cronos, and Ripple adds growth potential.
• Trump Branding: The affiliation with Truth Social and its political backing may attract retail attention.

Social media buzz emphasizes the ETF’s unique positioning. As one post put it: “A politically-powered push into crypto—Trump’s Truth Social just went Web3.”

Who’s Behind the ETF?

• Trump Media & Technology Group: Owner of Truth Social and related fintech ventures. This move follows its previously announced $2.5B Bitcoin treasury strategy.
• Crypto.com: Trusted by over 140 million users, providing secure custody and staking services.
• Yorkville America Digital: A U.S.-based digital asset sponsor overseeing fund structure and compliance.

Market Landscape and Challenges

The crypto ETF space is increasingly competitive, with BlackRock, Grayscale, and Fidelity already managing over $131 billion in Bitcoin ETF assets. To stand out, Truth Social’s ETF may need to offer lower fees or strong brand leverage.

SEC approval remains a hurdle. While Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have received green lights, inclusion of altcoins like Solana and Ripple may slow regulatory approval. Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart has warned that altcoin ETFs still face “significant resistance” from regulators.

Investor Benefits and Risks

Potential Advantages:

• Simplified Exposure: No need for wallets or exchanges—buy via a brokerage.
• Transparency and Regulation: SEC oversight and a reputable custodian add credibility.
• Market Growth: Cryptocurrencies like Solana surged over 25% on recent ETF news.

Risks:

• Volatility: Crypto remains highly speculative and price-sensitive.
• Political Branding: Association with Trump Media could attract or repel investors.
• Regulatory Delays: Approval is not guaranteed and may take time.

What’s Next?

The ETF’s launch date is pending SEC approval. Once greenlit, the Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF (B.T.) will begin trading on NYSE Arca. The move underscores Trump Media’s growing ambitions in fintech and digital assets via its Truth.Fi brand.
