A recent SEC filing outlines a proposed cryptocurrency exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracking an S&P index, with bitcoin, ethereum, and XRP as the leading assets. This development highlights potential for concentrated exposure to top digital assets in U.S. markets. Regulators are currently evaluating structures for index-based crypto funds.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has received a filing for a new crypto ETF that would follow an S&P index focused on digital assets. According to the proposal, bitcoin (BTC), ethereum (ETH), and XRP stand out as the primary components, offering investors targeted access to these leading cryptocurrencies.
This ETF aims to provide heavily concentrated exposure through established U.S. financial products, potentially simplifying entry into the crypto space for traditional investors. The filing underscores ongoing discussions among regulators about approving index-based funds for cryptocurrencies, which could standardize and legitimize digital asset investments.
As the SEC weighs these options, the proposal reflects growing interest in structured crypto products amid evolving market dynamics. The filing was published on January 26, 2026.
