Truth Social Funds, an affiliate of Trump Media & Technology Group, has filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch two cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These proposed funds aim to track the performance of Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and Cronos (CRO) while incorporating staking-based income strategies. This initiative comes at a time when US-listed Bitcoin ETFs have experienced notable net outflows in recent weeks.
On February 13, 2026, Truth Social Funds announced the submission of a registration statement for the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ether ETF and the Truth Social Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF. The registration is still pending approval, and the launch of these funds will depend on the SEC’s review process.
The filings have been positioned as part of a broader digital-asset investment strategy aligned with the Truth Social brand. The adviser for both proposed funds is Yorkville America Equities, LLC, which aims to blend price exposure with income-generating features.
Partnership with Crypto.com Enhances Fund Offerings
Truth Social Funds plans to collaborate with Crypto.com to develop these ETFs. This partnership is expected to provide essential services such as digital-asset custody, liquidity support, and staking services, contingent upon regulatory approval. Investors will be able to access the ETFs through Foris Capital US LLC, the broker-dealer affiliated with Crypto.com.
The product design places significant emphasis on staking. The Bitcoin and Ether fund will aim for returns tied to the combined performance of BTC and ETH, while also seeking rewards from Ethereum staking. The Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF is designed to track the performance of the Cronos token in conjunction with staking rewards.
Truth Social Funds has announced an anticipated management fee of 0.95% for each ETF. This fee structure is competitive within the current landscape of cryptocurrency investments.
Challenges in the Current Crypto ETF Market
While Truth Social Funds pursues SEC approval, the broader market for US Spot Bitcoin ETFs has faced challenges in attracting consistent inflows. According to data from SoSoValue, there have been four consecutive weeks of net outflows, including approximately $360 million withdrawn in the most recent week reported.
Trump Media’s push into the ETF market has gained momentum over the past year, marked by strategic partnerships and previous filings. In 2025, the company announced its intention to introduce “Made in America” investment products that include digital assets, leveraging Crypto.com’s brokerage infrastructure for distribution.
Earlier reports also highlighted previously filed Truth Social-branded crypto ETFs that have yet to launch, raising questions about the company’s overall strategy in the evolving cryptocurrency landscape.
