Grayscale Opens In-Kind ETF Access With Six-Figure Entry Minimums

Grayscale is launching an in-kind exchange program letting eligible investors swap existing tokens directly for shares in 10 investment products, including bitcoin, ether, XRP and solana, instead of selling for cash first. Minimum entry sizes range from roughly $80,300 to $364,800, keeping the offering aimed at institutional and high-net-worth participants. The structure reduces forced selling pressure and deepens institutional access to crypto exposure, a modestly constructive signal for the named assets.
