A Trump-linked asset manager has filed paperwork for additional **Truth Social-branded crypto ETFs**, expanding a politically branded push into digital-asset investment products.

### What happened

- CoinDesk reported that **Yorkville America Equities** filed with the **U.S. SEC** for two new funds:

- **Truth Social Bitcoin and Ether ETF** (exposure to BTC and ETH)

- **Truth Social Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF**, which would hold and **stake CRO** (Cronos) to generate rewards

- The filings indicate a partnership with **Crypto.com** for custody, liquidity, and staking services, with distribution through its broker-dealer affiliate.

### Why it matters

The Cronos proposal is notable because it explicitly incorporates **staking rewards**, a design choice likely to attract regulatory scrutiny in the U.S. where the line between yield-bearing products and securities offerings remains contested.

These filings also intersect with broader political debates about conflicts of interest and the shape of U.S. crypto market-structure legislation.

### What to watch next

- SEC feedback on the proposed ETF structures, especially around staking and yield.

- Whether the funds proceed in parallel with earlier Truth Social-branded ETF proposals that have not launched.

- How ETF product design evolves if policymakers tighten rules on crypto rewards.
