Multi-coin crypto ETF approved: BTC, ETH, XRP and Solana
The SEC approved the T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF: one regulated fund with exposure to Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana and more. A new step in the institutionalization of crypto.
Another milestone has been reached in the institutionalization of crypto. According to a decision of 12 June 2026, the US SEC approved NYSE Arca's proposal to list the T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF — a fund that gives investors exposure to multiple major cryptocurrencies at once.
One ETF, multiple coins
Where the first generation of crypto ETFs focused on single coins (first Bitcoin, later Ethereum), this fund goes further. The ETF offers exposure to leading cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana and even Shiba Inu. The fund typically holds between 5 and 15 qualified digital assets, although that number may change over time.
Moreover, it is an actively managed fund: a management team adjusts the composition based on market conditions, instead of simply tracking an index.
Why this matters
For large investors, an ETF is often the easiest way to get into crypto: it comes in a familiar, regulated wrapper, without you having to manage wallets or private keys yourself. A fund that bundles multiple coins lowers the threshold even further and provides instant diversification.
The approval fits a broader trend: crypto ETFs enter 2026 with regulatory tailwinds, and issuers are preparing for a busy year with many new products.
What does this mean for you?
More ETFs means more institutional demand, and that can support the entire market over time. Prefer to own crypto yourself instead of via a fund? Then compare safe, regulated platforms here and read our beginner's guide.
