What to know:

- The proposed Cronos-focused ETF would invest in and stake Cronos (CRO) tokens, aiming to generate yield through staking rewards in addition to price exposure.
- If approved, the funds would be launched in partnership with Crypto.com, which would provide custody, liquidity and staking services, and be distributed through its affiliate Foris Capital US LLC.

According to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) submitted Friday, the firm is seeking approval for the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ether ETF, which would offer exposure to the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Yorkville also filed for a second product, the Truth Social Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF, which would invest in and stake CRO$0.07899, the native token of Crypto.com’s Cronos blockchain.
While both ETFs remain subject to SEC approval, the filings mark an significant next step for the politically branded investment firm. If approved, the ETFs would be launched in partnership with Crypto.com, which is expected to serve as the digital asset custodian, liquidity provider, and staking services provider for the new funds.
The Cronos-focused ETF is especially notable for its inclusion of staking rewards, which are typically earned by helping to secure proof-of-stake networks like Cronos. That could position the fund as a yield-generating product in a space still largely dominated by passive spot ETFs.
Both funds would also be distributed through Foris Capital US LLC, the SEC-registered broker-dealer affiliated with Crypto.com.
Truth Social first signaled its crypto ambitions in June 2025, when it filed an S-1 registration statement for a spot bitcoin ETF under the same brand. That was followed by a Blue Chip Digital Asset ETF filing in July 2025, targeting a basket of large-cap altcoins. Neither product has yet launched.
President Trump, a primary owner of Trump Media & Technology Group that in turn owns Truth Social, has struggled politically with his personal business ties to the crypto sector. That relationship is currently among the primary sticking points for advancing the U.S. Senate's Digital Asset Market Clarity Act that would govern the oversight of U.S. crypto markets.

Adam Wainwright Takes The Mound Again Honor Darryl Kile
The post Adam Wainwright Takes The Mound Again Honor Darryl Kile appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

(Photo by Brandon Sloter/Image Of Sport/Getty Images) Getty Images St. Louis Cardinals lifer Adam Wainwright is a pretty easygoing guy, and not unlikely to talk with you about baseball traditions and barbecue, or even share a joke. That personality came out last week during our Zoom call when I mentioned for the first time that I’m a Chicago Cubs fan. He responded to the mention of my fandom, “So far, I don’t think this interview is going very well.” Yet, Wainwright will return to Busch Stadium on September 19 on a more serious note, this time to honor another former Cardinal and friend, the late Darryl Kile. Wainwright will take the mound not as a starting pitcher, but to throw out the game’s ceremonial first pitch. Joining him on the mound will be Kile’s daughter, Sierra, as the two help launch a new program called Playing with Heart. “Darryl’s passing was a reminder that heart disease doesn’t discriminate, even against elite athletes in peak physical shape,” Wainwright said. “This program is about helping people recognize the risks, take action, and hopefully save lives.” Wainwright, who played for the St. Louis Cardinals as a starting pitcher from 2005 to 2023, aims to merge the essence of baseball tradition with a crucial message about heart health. Kile, a beloved pitcher for the Cardinals, tragically passed away in 2002 at the age of 33 as a result of early-onset heart disease. His sudden death shook the baseball world and left a lasting impact on teammates, fans, and especially his family. Now, more than two decades later, Sierra Kile is stepping forward with Wainwright to…
