The company said that “As a leading crypto-focused asset manager, introducing investors to a diverse array of investible digital assets is an important part of our mission.” 

Accordingly, we’re excited to share this list of assets under consideration for inclusion for future Grayscale investment products, along with an up-to-date list of assets that are already part of our product family. Both lists are grouped according to our Grayscale Crypto Sectors framework, which we have designed to help set a standard for organizing the crypto asset class.

Grayscale says it will continue to aim to update its list at least as frequently as 15 days after quarter-end as the crypto ecosystem expands and the Grayscale team reviews or reevaluates additional assets. 

Grayscale categorized its list of potential tokens into five key areas: currencies, smart contract platforms, financials, culture, and utilities. 

The majority of the new assets under consideration were tokens tied to smart contract platforms, with the company selecting a variety of networks, including alternative layer-1 blockchains like Avalanche and Solana.

In the Culture section, Greyscale included two assets that are already included in its products, Basic Attention Token and Decentraland, and then listed Dogecoin and Immutable, as assets it is considering.

It has been a busy week for Dogecoin, the top memecoin by market cap, has surged over 10% in the last 24 hours, part of a broader memecoin recovery. An 11-year-old memecoin, Dogecoin is one of the best-performing major digital assets this month and Doge is driving the crypto conversation thanks to this year’s memecoin phenomenon. Woof.

Social media speculation has also contributed to DOGE’s recent rise. Elon Musk, long associated with DOGE, has re-entered the conversation.

Musk has suggested a “Department of Government Efficiency,” which he has humorously linked to the DOGE acronym. This connection, along with Musk’s history of promoting DOGE on X (formerly Twitter), has sparked hope among traders for further price gains. As the market begins to expect that Trump will win the election, this is driving the market forward. And that’s one reason why Grayscale will be interested in adding DOGE to its investment products.
