U.S. President Donald Trump’s media company is accelerating its crypto play.

The New York Stock Exchange filed for a rule change on Tuesday that would enable it to list the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF, a dual-asset fund proposed just last week by Trump Media and Technology Group.

If approved, the ETF would hold bitcoin and ether {{ETH}} in a 3:1 ratio and be custodied and executed by Crypto.com, which also serves as the fund’s liquidity provider.

The filing, made under the SEC’s 19b-4 process, marks a key procedural step toward public trading but doesn’t guarantee approval.

It comes less than a month after Trump Media said it would raise $2.4 billion to build its own BTC treasury, though there have been no announced purchases so far.

Beyond the Truth Social ETF filings, Trump Media and Yorkville are planning a full suite of politically branded crypto products, including the America First Bitcoin Fund, the America First Blockchain Leaders Fund, and the America First Stablecoin Income Fund.

Only the Truth-branded ETFs have been formally filed with the SEC so far.

How AI is helping retail traders exploit prediction market 'glitches' to make easy money

A fully automated bot quietly captured micro-arbitrage opportunities on short-term crypto prediction markets, netting nearly $150,000

What to know:

  • The bot exploited fleeting moments when “Yes” and “No” contracts briefly summed to less than $1, locking in roughly 1.5%–3% per trade across 8,894 executions.
  • With typical five-minute crypto prediction markets showing only $5,000–$15,000 per side in depth, large desks would struggle to deploy serious capital without erasing the spread.
  • As AI systems increasingly arbitrage prediction markets against options and derivatives pricing, these venues risk becoming reflections of broader crypto markets rather than independent sources of crowd-based probability.
