New Crypto ETFs in 2026: The Full List of Altcoin Spot ETFs (11 Assets, 30 Funds)

TL;DR. Between 28 October 2025 and 3 June 2026, US exchanges listed 30 spot ETFs holding 11 cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin and Ether. Solana has seven funds in our tracker (Invesco's QSOL and Morgan Stanley's MSOL also trade but aren't in our data yet), XRP five, and Hyperliquid, Dogecoin, Avalanche and Sui three each; Chainlink has two, and Hedera, Litecoin, BNB and Polkadot one apiece. Sponsor fees run from 0.19% (Franklin's SOEZ and XRPZ) to 0.95% (Canary's HBR and LTCC). Roughly half the funds stake their holdings. All of this exists because the SEC approved generic listing standards on 17 September 2025, which turned a multi-year approval fight into a filing. This page lists every fund, by asset, and what to check before buying one.

Why 30 funds appeared in eight months

Until autumn 2025, listing a spot crypto ETF meant the exchange had to file a Rule 19b-4 proposal asking the SEC to change its own rules for that one product. Bitcoin went through that process for more than a decade and needed a court loss to get over the line, as we laid out in the SEC approval history. Ether took most of a year. Nobody expected Dogecoin to get a hearing at all.

On 17 September 2025 the SEC approved generic listing standards for Commodity-Based Trust Shares on Nasdaq, NYSE Arca and Cboe BZX. Under those standards a trust holding a digital asset can list without a bespoke rule change if the asset meets at least one of three tests: it trades on a market that belongs to the Intermarket Surveillance Group; it underlies a futures contract on a CFTC-regulated exchange that has traded for at least six months with a surveillance-sharing agreement in place; or an ETF already listed on a national exchange gives at least 40% exposure to it. Most large tokens cleared at least one of those tests the day the order was signed.

The timing then got an accidental push. The federal government shut down on 1 October 2025 and the SEC's review staff went home. Issuers with finished S-1 registration statements refiled them without the customary delaying amendment, which makes a registration effective automatically after 20 days, then filed a Form 8-A to register the shares for trading. Canary and Bitwise used exactly that route to get HBR, LTCC and BSOL trading on 28 October 2025 while the agency was still dark.

What followed was a queue emptying rather than a wave of new ideas: most of the trusts below had been sitting in draft form since 2024 or early 2025.

The full list: every US spot altcoin ETF

Listing dates are the first day of trading as an ETF. For Grayscale products that were previously OTC trusts (GSOL, GXRP, GDOG, GLNK, GAVA, GSUI) that is the uplisting date, not the trust's founding. Fees are the headline sponsor fee on the issuer's page or SEC filing as of mid-September 2026; several were waived at launch and some waivers are still running. Exchange names are shortened: NYSE means NYSE Arca, Cboe means Cboe BZX.

Five issuers account for 27 of the 30 funds: Grayscale (7), Bitwise (7), 21Shares (6), Canary (5) and VanEck (3). Fidelity and Franklin Templeton each turned up once for Solana, and Franklin once for XRP. BlackRock has no fund on this list. Its only non-Bitcoin, non-Ether product remains the staked Ether trust, and that absence is the single most useful fact about how the big asset managers read altcoin demand.

Two products you'll see mentioned elsewhere are deliberately excluded: 21Shares' leveraged TXXH, TXXS and TXXD are 1940-Act funds using derivatives, and index baskets such as Grayscale's GDLC or Bitwise's BITW hold several coins at once. Neither is a spot single-asset trust, and neither shows up in per-asset flow data.

Solana: seven funds and a fee war

Solana got the most crowded field because it had the clearest path. CME Solana futures launched in March 2025, so SOL passed the six-month futures test on the day the generic standards arrived; the run-up is in our Solana approval status piece, written before the listings began. Bitwise's BSOL opened on 28 October 2025 and took $69.5m on its first day, according to The Block, and had grown to $945.9m of net assets by 15 September 2026 per bsoletf.com.

The fee competition here is sharper than anything in the Bitcoin complex. Franklin's SOEZ charges 0.19% and waived even that on the first $5bn through 31 May 2026. 21Shares' TSOL nominally charges 0.21% but is waiving the entire fee from 28 July 2026 to 27 July 2027, which means a $10,000 position costs nothing in sponsor fees for a year. VanEck ran a zero-fee window on VSOL's first $1bn through 17 February 2026. Grayscale's GSOL, the uplisted trust, charges 0.35% and started staking in October 2025, the month it moved to NYSE Arca.

Every Solana fund on the list stakes or is permitted to, which turns the fee question into a net-yield question. A fund charging 0.35% that stakes 90% of its holdings can out-earn a 0.19% fund that stakes a third of them, depending on the network reward rate that year. Read the staking section of each prospectus before ranking them by fee. Daily creations and redemptions for all seven sit on the Solana ETF flows page.

XRP: five funds, no staking, and the largest balances outside Solana

XRP's road was more legal than technical, as the XRP ETF outlook explains. Once the Ripple litigation ended and CME XRP futures had six months of history, the funds came in a burst: Canary's XRPC on 14 November 2025, Bitwise's XRP on 20 November, Franklin's XRPZ and Grayscale's GXRP together on 24 November, and 21Shares' TOXR on 16 December.

Two of these are already substantial. Bitwise reported $485.4m of net assets in its XRP ETF on 15 September 2026, and Canary reported $320.3m in XRPC on 16 September 2026. Note the ticker trap: Bitwise's fund trades under the symbol XRP, the same as the token, so a quote screen can show either. XRP has no native staking, so none of the five funds earns anything on its holdings; fees, spreads and issuer scale are the whole comparison. Flows are on the XRP ETF flows page.

Hyperliquid and Sui: the 2026 entries that all stake

HYPE didn't exist before late 2024 and had three US ETFs by June 2026: 21Shares' THYP (12 May), Bitwise's BHYP (15 May) and Grayscale's HYPG (3 June, on Nasdaq at 0.29%, the lowest gross fee of the three). All three stake, and how they split the reward with shareholders differs enough to matter; see Hyperliquid ETF explained for the structure and BHYP vs THYP vs HYPG for the head-to-head. The HYPE funds are also the clearest example of the new regime: an asset that would never have survived a 19b-4 review got listed because Hyperliquid traded on an ISG-member market and nothing in the generic standards asks how old a token is.

Dogecoin, Chainlink, Avalanche: three funds, two funds, three funds

Dogecoin. Grayscale's GDOG uplisted to NYSE Arca on 24 November 2025, a date confirmed in the trust's 10-K, and Bitwise's BWOW followed two days later. 21Shares added TDOG on 22 January 2026 at 0.50%. Dogecoin is proof-of-work, so nothing stakes. The money hasn't followed the headlines: Bitwise reported just $654,937 of net assets in BWOW on 15 September 2026. GDOG held about $8.5m in August 2026 issuer data, larger but still tiny. Flows: Dogecoin ETF flows.

Chainlink. Grayscale's GLNK (2 December 2025) and Bitwise's CLNK (14 January 2026) are the only two. Bitwise reported $43.5m in CLNK on 15 September 2026; in August 2026 issuer data GLNK held roughly three times that. Neither fund page describes a staking programme. Flows: Chainlink ETF flows.

Avalanche. VanEck's VAVX came first on 26 January 2026, Grayscale's GAVA uplisted on 12 March, and Bitwise's BAVA listed on 15 April with a programme that stakes about 70% of holdings. GAVA's fee was showing as 0% in issuer data through August 2026, an introductory rate rather than a permanent one, and Grayscale hasn't published the end date where we could find it. Bitwise reported $19.4m in BAVA on 15 September 2026. Flows: Avalanche ETF flows.

The single-fund assets: HBAR, LTC, BNB, DOT

Four assets have exactly one US spot ETF each, which means no fee competition and, in two cases, a fee that shows it.

Canary's HBR (Hedera) and LTCC (Litecoin) both listed on Nasdaq on 28 October 2025 at 0.95%, the highest sponsor fee on this list and more than four times what the cheapest Solana fund charges. Canary reported $55.2m in HBR and $7.0m in LTCC on 16 September 2026. Neither stakes; Litecoin can't, and HBR's page doesn't mention it. Data for both: Hedera ETF flows and Litecoin ETF flows.

VanEck's VBNB began trading on Nasdaq on 28 May 2026 at 0.39%, with BNB held in cold storage at Anchorage Digital Bank, per CoinDesk's launch report. The S-1 excludes staking at launch but leaves the sponsor room to add it. 21Shares' TDOT (Polkadot) listed on 6 March 2026 at 0.30% and does stake a portion of its DOT; 21Shares reported $9.5m of assets on 16 September 2026. Flows: BNB ETF flows and Polkadot ETF flows.

Sui arrived earlier and faster: Canary's SUIS listed on 17 February 2026, Grayscale's GSUI on 18 February and 21Shares' TSUI on 24 February. All three stake: TSUI stakes 70% to 90% of holdings and distributes rewards quarterly, and Canary markets SUIS as a staked product. Fees are 0.75% for SUIS, 0.35% for GSUI (per Grayscale's 10-Q; the product page didn't show it at the time of writing) and 0.30% for TSUI.

Sui is unusual for another reason. None of the flow aggregators that cover the other assets track it, so the daily figures on our Sui ETF flows page are computed directly from the three issuers' share counts and NAV. That's also true of the other seven newer assets on this list; only Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, XRP and HYPE have third-party coverage. Canary reported $20.5m in SUIS and 21Shares $16.4m in TSUI on 16 September 2026.

Staking-enabled or not: the split

Whether a fund stakes decides more about its long-term return than the fee does, and the split falls along asset lines rather than issuer lines.

Staking status	Assets	What it means for the holder
Stakes (all or most funds)	SOL, HYPE, SUI, DOT	Rewards accrue to the fund or pay out; the sponsor keeps a cut; some holdings are locked
Mixed	AVAX, BNB	BAVA stakes about 70%; VBNB doesn't yet; check the rest in the prospectus
Cannot stake	XRP, DOGE, LTC, LINK, HBAR	Pure price exposure; the fee is the entire drag

The contrast with 2024 is stark. The SEC forced staking out of the Ether ETFs before approving them, as covered in Ethereum ETF staking explained. By late 2025 it was waving through Solana funds that stake everything. Staking inside a wrapper brings its own mechanics, including unbonding queues that can delay redemptions, which we detailed for HYPE in Hyperliquid staking ETF explained. The same logic applies to every staking fund above.

What to check before buying any of these

Most of these funds are small, and small funds behave differently from IBIT. Four checks, in order:

1. Fee, net of staking. Start with the sponsor fee, then subtract the staking reward the fund passes through. A waiver with an end date (TSOL, SOEZ, VSOL, GAVA) is a real saving for a fixed period and nothing afterwards, so note the date.
2. Spread. On a fund with under $10m in assets the bid-ask spread can exceed a year of sponsor fee. Use a limit order and look at the quote before the fee table.
3. Premium or discount to NAV. Authorised participants keep a large fund near its net asset value; on a tiny one they can be slow. The mechanics are in premium and discount to NAV.
4. Size and survival. A fund that never grows gets closed. BWOW at $0.65m and LTCC at $7.0m are the ones to watch. A closure returns your money but on the issuer's timetable and as a taxable event.

Then look at the money. Daily net flows tell you whether other buyers are arriving, and the Crypto ETF Flow Index compresses the whole market into one 0 to 100 reading. Our ETF selection checklist was written for Bitcoin funds, and every item on it transfers.

What isn't on the list, and why

The absentees are as telling as the entries. Cardano, Stellar and Aptos all had filings, and as far as we could confirm when compiling this table in September 2026, none had a US spot fund trading. There's no BlackRock or Invesco product for any asset here. Fidelity and Franklin showed up for Solana and XRP and nowhere else. The pattern is that the generic standards removed the regulatory barrier and left the commercial one standing: an issuer needs to believe a fund can reach a few hundred million dollars, and outside Solana and XRP, the evidence so far says most of these won't.

That doesn't make the list static. Grayscale, Bitwise, 21Shares and Canary have been adding assets roughly monthly, and 21Shares has a Canton Network fund that we don't yet track. When a new spot fund lists, it shows up on the relevant flows page once the issuer publishes enough data to compute a daily figure, and this article will be updated with the new row.
