“We are proud to announce the creation of two new single-asset cryptocurrency investment funds, available through private placement: Grayscale Bittensor Trust $TAO and Grayscale Sui Trust $SUI. Available for eligible accredited investors.”
In practice, the Grayscale Bittensor Trust is dedicated to the decentralized artificial intelligence project (AI) behind the TAO token. The Grayscale Sui Trust, on the other hand, focuses exclusively on the SUI token of the blockchain-based layer-1 protocol of Sui.
Specifically, the two crypto funds are single-asset funds that exclusively hold the eponymous cryptocurrencies (TAO and SUI) and are accessible to eligible individual and institutional accredited investors.
Grayscale and the two new crypto investment products on TAO and SUI
The two new Grayscale Bittensor Trust and Grayscale Sui Trust are added to the list of no less than 18 other cryptocurrency investment products from Grayscale.
On this subject, Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary, Managing Director and Head of Products and Research at Grayscale, commented:
“We are excited to add Bittensor and Sui to our product suite and believe that Bittensor is at the heart of decentralized AI growth, while Sui is redefining the smart contract blockchain. With the launch of Grayscale Bittensor Trust and Grayscale Sui Trust, we continue to provide investors with familiar products that allow access to cutting-edge tokens in the ongoing evolution of the crypto ecosystem.”
The news of Grayscale’s support for TAO and SUI did not result in significant price spikes for the two crypto.
Indeed, both TAO and SUI seem to follow the general trend of the main cryptos, although with some differences. In fact, while TAO is worth $270 as it was yesterday, SUI has increased in price by +5% in the last 24 hours, reaching a value of $0.64.
