Trump’s media company files for new “Crypto Blue Chip ETF”

Donald Trump is expanding his crypto footprint.

The parent company of Truth Social, Trump Media & Technology Group, announced a new filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission for an ETF that would hold a basket of cryptocurrencies.

Florida-based crypto asset manager Yorkville America Digital, which is the sponsor, filed an S-1 form for the “Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF,” which will be made up of 70% bitcoin, 15% ethereum, 8% solana, 5% cronos, and 2% XRP.

Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group have increased roughly 5%, while cronos saw the largest price swing of the tokens included in the basket, jumping nearly 12% since 6:00 a.m. ET.

The new fund is Trump Media’s third filing for an ETF rooted in digital assets. The social media company filed an S-1 document to launch a spot bitcoin ETF last week, and in June, the company announced plans to launch an ETF for bitcoin and ethereum.

Ripple launches treasury platform to manage cash and cryptocurrencies

Ripple, the firm closely tied to the fifth-largest cryptocurrency, XRP, introduced a new treasury platform for digital asset and traditional cash management for users like financial officers, treasurers, and accountants.

Ripple’s move comes more than three months after it acquired treasury software provider GTreasury for $1 billion, one of several steps to grow the firm’s position in corporate finance.

Combining Ripple’s blockchain rails and GTreasury’s software, the new platform’s goal is to simplify treasury operations. It eliminates settlement delays with payment times of three to five seconds and optimizes yield from working capital 24/7 through tokenized money market funds such as BlackRock’s BUIDL and overnight secure repo markets with RLUSD, according to a Tuesday blog post.

Ripple Treasury also aims to provide “real-time cash positions, automated forecasting, and seamless reporting across traditional cash, digital assets, RLUSD, and XRP holdings,” the blog post stated.

Last year, Ripple filed its national banking license application with the US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, while the firm’s subsidiary Standard Custody & Trust Company applied for a Federal Reserve master account, which would allow Ripple to hold RLUSD reserves directly with the Fed.

XRP has seen $2.4 billion in trading volume in the last 24 hours, increasing 1.8% in the period. The token’s all-time high was set in July 2025 at $3.65. Meanwhile, spot XRP ETFs had nearly $9.2 million worth of inflows on Tuesday, bringing cumulative inflows to $1.4 billion.
