Oh, the audacity of these financial jesters! REX Shares and Osprey Funds, ever the schemers, have filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission for a BNB ETF, complete with staking yields. One might say the asset managers are now chasing the crypto gold rush with the fervor of a man chasing a mirage. 🧠
The filing, a veritable comedy of errors, claims the REX-Osprey BNB + Staking ETF will allocate at least 80% of its capital to BNB, the token of the Binance ecosystem. Or, as the Cayman Islands subsidiary would have it, “exposure” through a legal loophole. 🎩
BNB, when staked on the Binance Chain, is said to yield 1.5% to 3% annually-enough to make a validator blush with pride. 🤝
If approved, this ETF may differ from the Osprey Funds’ BNB Chain Trust, a product for the elite with a $10,000 minimum buy-in. Because nothing says “democracy” like a five-digit entry fee. 💸
The fund intends to stake all its BNB, but only if its adviser can keep illiquid assets under 15%-a regulatory threshold as flimsy as a paper crown. Anchorage Digital Bank, the custodian of choice, now holds the keys to this financial masquerade. 🗝️
This ETF mirrors VanEck’s BNB fund, the first of its kind in the US. A bold move, indeed, to capture staking yields while the SEC yawns. 🧠
ETF action picks up
According to SoSoValue.com, US crypto ETFs are now the talk of the town. Bitcoin ETFs have seen inflows from $3 billion to $6 billion-proof that even the most skeptical investors can’t resist the siren song of crypto. 🎶
During the week of Aug. 15, Bitcoin and Ether ETFs hit a trading volume so high, it’s as if the market itself were performing a stand-up routine. 🎤
As crypto enthusiasts await “altcoin season,” Bitfinex analysts suggest a rally may only happen if more ETFs are approved. Awaiting the SEC’s verdict are Solana, Trump, and Sui-tokens as unpredictable as a Molière play. 🎭
