Grayscale Debuts First U.S. Spot Chainlink (LINK) ETF: Institutional Crypto Adoption Reaches New Heights

Grayscale is set to make history with the launch of the United States' first spot Chainlink ETF on December 2, 2025. This milestone marks a significant shift toward mainstream cryptocurrency ETF adoption, providing both institutional and retail investors direct exposure to the Chainlink network.

The SEC's recent approvals of Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin ETFs established a regulatory framework, enabling Grayscale's chainlink Trust—founded in 2020—to transition into a fully-regulated ETF. Analysts predict this development will trigger a surge of crypto ETF offerings, accelerating competition and innovation across the sector.

Bloomberg Intelligence estimates the ETF's launch could unlock billions in institutional capital, further cementing digital assets as legitimate investment vehicles. "This isn't just a product launch—it's a watershed moment for crypto," noted a Wall Street trader, highlighting Grayscale's pioneering position in the spot Chainlink ETF market.
