Grayscale® Advisors New Investment Opportunity Aims to Capture Staking Rewards

Grayscale® Advisors, LLC (“GSA”), an SEC-registered investment adviser, today announced the launch of Grayscale Dynamic Income Fund (“GDIF” or “the Fund”), the firm’s first actively-managed crypto fund, which seeks to optimize staking income from crypto assets and aims to distribute rewards in USD on a quarterly basis. Grayscale Investments®, the world’s largest crypto asset manager*, is the parent company of GSA.

“The Grayscale team is at the forefront of developments taking place in the crypto ecosystem, and we continue to leverage our expertise to create innovative investment opportunities,” said Grayscale CEO Michael Sonnenshein. “As our first actively managed Fund, GDIF is an important expansion of our product suite and enables investors to participate in multi-asset staking through the convenience and familiarity of a singular investment vehicle.”

Staking is the process by which users participate in the validation of transactions on a crypto network by committing or "staking" a certain quantity of tokens. Users earn token-denominated rewards by participating in the staking process.

To assess protocols for inclusion in the Fund, GSA employs qualitative and quantitative factors, including staking rewards, market capitalization, and liquidity. Grayscale Dynamic Income Fund (GDIF) currently consists of nine crypto assets, including Aptos (APT), Celestia (TIA), Coinbase Staked Ethereum (CBETH), Cosmos (ATOM), Near (NEAR), Osmosis (OSMO), Polkadot (DOT), SEI Network (SEI), and Solana (SOL), as of February 29, 2024.**
