All five projects witnessed price increases upon the news. Filecoin (FIL) saw a dramatic 52% increase from $59 on March 16th to $89.7 the next day, according to CoinGecko.
Earlier this year, Grayscale sparked rumors that it would introduce new offerings as it registered a large set of crypto trusts with the Delaware corporate registry.
Some altcoins for which the firm has registered projects but has not yet announced any trusts are:
- Grayscale Aave Trust (AAVE)
- Grayscale Cardano Trust (ADA)
- Grayscale Cosmos Trust (ATOM)
- Grayscale EOS Trust (EOS)
- Grayscale Monero Trust (XMR)
- Grayscale Uniswap Trust (UNI)
- Grayscale Polkadot Trust (DOT)
Grayscale’s current suite of products allows investors exposure to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ethereum Classic (ETC), Horizen (ZEN), Litecoin (LTC), Stellar Lumens (XLM), and Zcash (ZEC).
