- Grayscale launches the MNRS ETF, offering investors exposure to Bitcoin mining companies.
- The MNRS ETF tracks firms focused on Bitcoin mining, hardware, software, and infrastructure.
- Grayscale expands its product range with Litecoin, Solana ETFs, and 40 new digital assets.
The New York-based crypto investment company Grayscale has recently introduced the Grayscale Bitcoin Miners ETF (MNRS), which will help investors gain exposure to Bitcoin mining firms. The ETF tracks the Indxx Bitcoin Miners Index, which consists of companies that mostly earn their revenues from Bitcoin mining and associated services. These services encompass areas such as hardware, software, and infrastructure.
Opportunities with MNRS ETF
The MNRS ETF provides an opportunity to gain exposure to this sector with the aim of earning profit from the Bitcoin mining industry while not directly investing in cryptocurrencies. With the ETF, investors can effectively get involved in the Bitcoin market without having to handle the actual cryptocurrency assets. Nevertheless, the fund does not buy Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies.
However, MNRS targets firms that engage in mining Bitcoin or provide some form of support. The fund may have indirect exposure to digital assets by investing in companies that deal with cryptocurrency or hold cryptocurrency as an asset. This approach allows investors to be involved in the Bitcoin market without owning the currency.
Grayscale’s Market Position
Grayscale remains to be one of the major players in the cryptocurrency investment market. The company’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) has over $20 billion in assets under management but is behind BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC in the race for the Bitcoin ETF. However, Grayscale’s efforts to expand its product portfolio indicate its role in incorporating crypto investments for regular investors.
Besides, Grayscale has also filed for the approval of Litecoin ETF, which the Securities and Exchange Commission may approve before other altcoin ETFs. Grayscale has also applied to create a Solana ETF to increase the company’s variety of crypto products.

The company has also revealed 40 new digital assets, including artificial intelligence and meme tokens, that could be included in its list of investments. This indicates that Grayscale is continuing with its policy of changing the market dynamics when it comes to cryptocurrencies.
Thus, Grayscale has successfully secured its place in the emerging market of cryptocurrency investment products. New offerings show the company is focused on allowing more people to try crypto investments.
