The crypto world, once a quiet haven of digital whispers, has lately transformed into a ferocious ETF battleground. From Solana to XRP, from HBAR to the ever-charismatic Dogecoin, traditional finance has rushed in, throwing billions into the arms of freshly minted crypto investment products. But one community, oh how patiently they wait, like a dog waiting for its bone, is Cardano. While their competitors have already made it onto U.S. exchanges, the ADA ETF has remained in the shadows, teasing with the promise of its arrival. But could it finally be knocking on the door? Stay tuned, because, as the good old saying goes, “Patience is a virtue” – and so is timing.
In an exclusive tête-à-tête with Thinking Crypto, Frederik Gregaard, the ever-diplomatic CEO of the Cardano Foundation, finally let slip that the much-anticipated ADA product could be closer to reality than anyone dared to imagine. And while the media has been cheerfully dubbing these products “ETFs,” Gregaard wisely points out that most of these applications are technically ETPs. Yes, you heard right-ETPs, which are basically ETFs in disguise. They are fully backed by ADA, yet they can be traded on regulated markets. Oh, the complexities of the crypto alphabet soup! A minor detail, perhaps, but one that distinguishes the grown-ups from the amateurs.
But wait, it gets better. Gregaard confirmed that some of the biggest asset managers in the world have already thrown their hats into the ADA ring, eagerly awaiting approval for ADA listings. “Clarity is coming,” he promised, adding that within a month, once U.S. regulators return from their (presumably very necessary) break, we may finally see the future unfold before us. Could it be the long-awaited moment of triumph for Cardano holders? Time will tell-preferably within the next 30 days.
Europe and Asia Are Already Laughing
As the U.S. lingers in its bureaucratic limbo, Gregaard cheekily reminded the audience that Europe and parts of Asia are already far ahead in the game. There, the ADA ETPs are already as common as a morning coffee. These products offer institutions a chance to dabble in ADA without getting their hands dirty by actually holding the asset. How quaint, how efficient! The demand for these products, Gregaard shared with a smile, is both steady and growing, which only increases the pressure on U.S. regulators to catch up with the rest of the world. After all, nothing says “progress” like playing catch-up, right?
Cardano Summit: Bigger, Better, Bolder
And what’s this? Gregaard turned the spotlight to Cardano’s rapidly expanding ecosystem, gearing up for the flagship Cardano Summit in Berlin. This year’s event promises to be a doozy, expected to attract a crowd of 800 to 900 attendees, including major corporate giants like Volvo Cars, Johnson & Johnson, and Boston Consulting Group. Blockchain, the buzzword du jour, is finding its way into real-world use cases, and Cardano is proud to lead the charge. After all, why speculate when you can revolutionize?
But wait-there’s more. What truly sets Cardano apart, according to Gregaard, is its increasing adoption beyond the realm of speculative crypto nonsense. The Cardano Foundation recently boasted that more than 100 German companies are already using agentic AI solutions built on Cardano’s infrastructure. Yes, you read that right-AI, blockchain, and business all wrapped up in one neat, tidy package. The future is here, and it’s all about getting things done, not just talking about it.
