Grayscale will triple its Zcash ETF share count after a 2,800% year

A lower entry price could pull new money into a fund whose underlying asset has already made most of its move.

Why it mattersThe split widens access without changing exposure — a structure increasingly common as crypto ETFs compete for retail liquidity.

Congress stalled on crypto rules. The agencies did not wait.

The Clarity Act fell eleven votes short in the Senate. Within two days, separate SEC and CFTC actions pushed the same market-structure questions forward through regulation rather than legislation.

Why it mattersThe centre of gravity has shifted from Congress to agencies. That changes both the timetable and the institutions that digital-asset firms need to watch next.
