Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), the operator of the Truth Social platform, has filed a registration statement with the SEC for two new digital asset exchange-traded funds. This represents the most expansive move yet into crypto-linked investment products by the firm.
According to the official filing on 16 Feb, the proposed funds are the Truth Social Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF and the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ether ETF. The latter is designed to provide exposure to both assets in a single vehicle. This follows an earlier application reported by Sandmark in June 2025 for a blended ETF with a 75% allocation to Bitcoin and 25% to Ether.
Regulatory hurdles and market normalization
The registration statement indicates that shares cannot be offered until the regulator declares it effective. Spot crypto ETFs remain subject to rigorous review under the Investment Company Act and the Securities Act. Crypto.com is expected to serve as the digital asset custodian and staking provider, while Yorkville America Equities will act as investment adviser.
The filing comes amid accelerating institutional adoption. Following the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024, the first year of trading saw record inflows compared with historical commodity launches. TMTG’s filing underscores how politically connected brands are seeking footholds in fee-generating financial products.
This pivot reflects a broader normalization of crypto within financial infrastructure. Research from McKinsey & Company suggests tokenized products are increasingly integrated into mainstream portfolios as regulatory clarity improves. President Donald Trump’s second term has coincided with an environment more receptive to these structured products, marking a departure from his previous stance on digital assets.
