Grayscale Investments filed a request on Tuesday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to convert its mixed-crypto fund containing popular tokens bitcoin, ether, Solana, XRP and Avalanche into an exchange-traded fund.

The fund is composed of primarily bitcoin, which makes up nearly 75%, and Ethereum, which comprises about 19%.

Grayscale's converted spot bitcoin ETF began trading in January and has an AUM of about $14 billion, according to The Block Data Dashboard .
