While Bitcoin and Ethereum account for over 90% of Grayscale’s total digital assets under management, the company is adding DeFi assets as well.

In a recent press release, Grayscale mentioned its interest in 23 digital assets including Aave, Chainlink, Polkadot, Cardano, and EOS for new investment products.

“We’re eager to expand our product offerings to better serve our investors. The digital currency universe is constantly evolving and we seek to identify bold, interesting, and innovative opportunities that satisfy our investors’ demand for differentiated exposure to this burgeoning asset class,” Grayscale CEO, Michael Sonnenshein said.
