Additionally, in the previous quarterly report, Grayscale updated its Top 20 crypto asset list with strategic moves. This quarter, Lido DAO (LDO) and Optimism (OP) were removed, while Avalanche (AVAX) and Morpho (MORPHO) were added.

Ondo (ONDO): 19.07%
Lido (LDO): 7.02%
Curve (CRV): 6.92%
Aerodrome Finance (AERO): 6.60%

This update balanced the DeFi Fund with liquidity, protocol growth, and promising projects. The change closely correlates with coin prices and rising interest in DeFi projects.

Smart Contract Fund (GSC) Update

Hedera (HBAR): 5.50%

Grayscale rebalanced the portfolio to optimize the performance of emerging coins and blockchain projects.

AI Fund Update

Grayscale’s AI Fund also added Story (IP) in Q3 2025 (21.53% weight).

As of October 3, 2025, AI Fund portfolio allocation:

Ethereum Price Stuck at Key Support — Is a Breakout Near?

Yigit Taha OZTURK — Wed, 02 Jul 2025 09:00:36 +0000

The crypto market remains in a tight range, with investors closely watching whether this calm will give way to a sharp move. One of the most closely watched assets right now is Ethereum, which continues to consolidate at a key support zone.

ETH Accumulates Around Support Area

According to our previous analysis, ETH remains in a state of consolidation around a major support level. For now, the support holds, and the price action suggests continued accumulation in this area.

If this support zone is broken to the downside, we could see Ethereum retrace towards the $2,300 region. Such a move would reflect increased bearish momentum and a likely pullback scenario for the short term.

Upside Resistance Still at $2,550

On the flip side, the first major resistance level remains at $2,550. A confirmed breakout above this price could bring in stronger buying pressure, potentially leading to a more bullish trend for ETH.

Traders should closely monitor both support and resistance zones, as any break could signal the start of a significant price move.

FET Rises with Buyback Move: Will the Trend Break?

Yigit Taha OZTURK — Thu, 19 Jun 2025 12:00:43 +0000

One of the most notable moves in the crypto market today came from Fetch.ai, which announced a $50 million token buyback program. Following the news, FET gained nearly 6%, drawing strong attention from traders and investors alike.

Rebound from a Strong Support Zone

After the announcement, the price rebounded from the key support range between $0.65 and $0.61, touching the resistance of the downward trendline. While there’s no confirmed breakout yet, a volume-backed move above this trend could open the door toward the $0.75 level.

What Levels to Watch Next?

If FET breaks above the trendline with strong momentum, the next target would likely be $0.75. On the flip side, if the support range is lost, the next major support is at $0.57.

Volume remains the key factor to watch, as it may determine the direction of the next major move.

Solana Nears Decision Point: Will The Trend Break?

Yigit Taha OZTURK — Wed, 18 Jun 2025 11:00:56 +0000

Recent volatility in the crypto market has led to the formation of noticeable technical patterns in several altcoins. At the center of attention is Solana, which is currently forming a minor descending trend on the daily chart—raising questions among traders.

Support Holds For Now, But Risks Remain

According to recent analysis, Solana has bounced multiple times from the critical 142.42$ – 133.82$ support zone. However, the descending trendline remains intact. A daily close below this key support could trigger further declines, potentially sending Solana down to the 125$ level.

A Breakout Could Shift Momentum Upward

If Solana breaks above the descending trendline, it could initiate a rally toward the 170$ mark. Such a move would signal a shift in market sentiment and may present short-term buying opportunities. For now, traders are watching for confirmation on either side.

ZRO Rejected at Resistance Again: Eyes on $2.13 Support

Yigit Taha OZTURK — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 13:00:24 +0000

In recent weeks, ZRO (ZeroLend) managed to break its descending trend on the daily chart. However, the move upward faced rejection from a bearish Fair Value Gap (FVG) zone, leading to the formation of a minor descending trend. The price has now been rejected once again from the resistance of this minor trend.

$2.13 Support Is Key

The most immediate support for ZRO lies at $2.13, which falls inside a bullish FVG zone. This level previously acted as a rebound area and holds critical importance. If ZRO loses this support, the next level to watch will be $1.51, suggesting a possible continuation of the broader downtrend.

If the $2.13 support holds and ZRO manages to break through the descending trend resistance, the next target will be $3.00 — a psychological and technical resistance zone where selling pressure could emerge.

Technical Outlook

For ZRO, the closest support level currently stands at $2.13. If this level fails to hold, the next strong support is located around $1.51. On the upside, the first resistance area is near $2.80. If this resistance is broken, the next bullish target could be $3.00. The direction of the price will largely depend on how buyers react at the $2.13 support level and how the price responds to the descending trendline.
