In a move that could stir both the financial and political spheres, a major player tied to conservative media is making headlines in the crypto investment world. Amid rising institutional interest in digital assets, this filing may mark a significant new chapter.
With U.S. crypto ETFs attracting strong demand, this development is likely to intensify the spotlight on traditional markets’ growing integration with blockchain technology.
Trump Media Targets Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF Listing
Trump Media, the parent company of Truth Social, submitted a Form 19b-4 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 24. The filing aims to list a dual-asset ETF under the ticker B.T. on NYSE Arca, holding 75% Bitcoin and 25% Ethereum.
Structured as a commodity-based trust, the ETF would be sponsored by Yorkville America Digital. Custody of both crypto assets will be handled by Foris DAX Trust Company, an affiliate of Crypto.com.

If approved, this ETF will provide simplified, single-ticker exposure to the largest digital currencies, giving retail and institutional investors easier access through conventional brokerage platforms.
Second ETF Push From Trump Media
The 19b-4 filing follows an S-1 submission from June 16, which details structural and regulatory elements required for the fund’s offering. Both filings are necessary for the ETF to become publicly tradable.
The trust’s strategy remains passive, using CME CF benchmark rates to calculate NAV. The crypto holdings will be stored in cold storage, while Crypto.com will act as execution agent and also provide staking and liquidity services.
Following this submission, the SEC now has up to 240 days to decide, though an initial response is expected within 45 days.
A New Era for Crypto Funds?
This is Trump Media’s second ETF proposal. The earlier one, filed on June 3, focuses solely on Bitcoin and also seeks listing via NYSE Arca. That application is currently under SEC review, with a final decision expected by January 29, 2026.
As digital asset ETFs gain traction in the U.S., the political and financial implications of such filings are becoming increasingly significant.
