Crypto giant GSR launches its first ETF to give investors an easy way to bet on the big 3 tokens
GSR is entering the asset management space with a new Nasdaq-listed ETF that actively manages a basket of bitcoin, ether and solana while offering investors a chance to earn staking yields.
What to know:
- GSR has launched its first crypto exchange-traded fund, the GSR Crypto Core3 ETF (ticker BESO), on Nasdaq, offering exposure to bitcoin, ether and solana.
- The actively managed fund charges a 1% fee, rebalances weekly based on research-driven signals and can earn staking rewards on eligible assets.
- The ETF marks GSR’s expansion from trading and market making into asset management as demand grows for regulated, brokerage-based access to diversified crypto products.
The launch comes as crypto ETFs have gained traction with both retail and institutional investors seeking easier access to digital assets through traditional brokerage accounts. While most U.S.-listed crypto ETFs to date have focused on single assets, particularly bitcoin, some have moved to basket funds, similar to Core3, which bundles multiple tokens into a single product and adjusts allocations on a weekly basis.
GSR said the fund aims to reflect two main themes in crypto markets: bitcoin’s role as a macro asset and the growth of blockchain platforms such as Ethereum and Solana, which support applications like stablecoins and tokenized assets.
