Trump’s Truth Social Files Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF with the SEC

WASHINGTON, D. C. - President Donald Trump’s Truth Social shocked many by filing an application with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to create a Bitcoin and Ethereum Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). This move indicates the company’s determination to take a piece of the ever-growing digital asset investment market.

As per the papers presented to the SEC, the ETF is planned to enable both types of investors, that is, institutional and retail, to have controlled access towards Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), but not in a way that they will directly own such cryptocurrencies. The fund will be under the management of Truth Capital, which is a recently established investment wing by Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), the mother company of Truth Social.

A Bold Move Into Digital Finance

The proposed ETF is designed to monitor changes in prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum using a custodial model that depends on some leading U. S.-regulated crypto companies. Some experts believe this move signifies one of the initial efforts made by a politically affiliated entity to enter into federal regulation level within the digital asset sector.

In their statement, executives at Truth Social referred to the filing of the ETF as “a historical milestone towards economic liberty and technological advancement.” The company’s spokesperson added that this ETF is meant to offer Americans a secure, transparent, and lawful means through which they can access the top two cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalization.

Approval of the Truth Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF would see it become one among many other similar digital asset funds, which are looking for SEC approval after the triumph experienced by Bitcoin spot ETFs in the recent past. It has been projected by analysts that with its entry, Truth Social could enhance even more widespread adoption and drive traditional investors towards crypto-based products.

Trump’s Evolving Stance on Crypto

This move signifies a change in position regarding cryptocurrencies by Donald Trump. Throughout his term as president, Trump voiced doubt concerning Bitcoin, which he referred to as a “menace against the U. S. dollar.” Nevertheless, since his exit from office, he has openly supported blockchain technology and called for innovation in digital finance.

To his supporters, the filing of this ETF is seen as part of his “America First” economic policy with focus on digital independence and growth driven by blockchain technology.

What Comes Next

It is anticipated that the SEC will go through the application over the next few weeks before making a decision, probably towards the end of 2026, as suggested by analysts. In case it gets approved, the Truth ETF may witness massive inflows coming from retail investors, conservative funds, and those institutions that are curious about cryptocurrencies.

By doing so, there emerges a new era where politics intertwine with crypto finance, thereby positioning Truth Social not only as a social platform but also as an emerging entity within the American financial innovation landscape.
