Canary Funds Files for First-Ever MOG ETF

Popular asset manager Canary Funds has submitted a request to an ETF of the meme-based cryptocurrency MOG. This is the first time this token will be made available in traditional financial markets. The filing outlines plans for a trust designed to hold and track the price of MOG Coin.

Canary MOG ETF To Hold Coin Directly

According to the preliminary prospectus, the “Canary MOG ETF” will issue shares of beneficial interest that trade on a registered exchange. This was revealed by respected ETF analyst James Seyffart on X.

Canary Funds has recently gained attention for its XRP ETF filing, which notably has been scheduled for launch on November 13, 2025.

MOG Coin will be retained in the fund, without the fees, and liabilities in order to monitor its performance. The move further shows increased adoption of popular crypto-tokens as investment products that are accessible by mainstream investors.

The sponsor of the trust in the filing is Canary Capital Group LLC. The firm has also launched an HBAR ETF, which coincided with a strong market performance of the token.

CSC Delaware Trust Company will act as trustee. Meanwhile, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services serves as transfer agent. A designated custodian will hold the fund’s MOG assets on behalf of investors once the product is approved by regulators.

The ETF’s pricing benchmark will rely on an index derived from major MOG trading platforms. Its model is the same as the structures used in other spot crypto ETFs like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

The filing also indicates that meme coins have shifted off internet jests and into genuine financial instruments. Recent U.S. Treasury and IRS guidance supporting regulated crypto ETFs further underscores this shift.

MOG Coin, which is known for its cat branding and a viral community, has grown rapidly on social media. An ETF listing would increase awareness about it and attract institutional investors.

ETF Increases Optimism About MOG Coin

An approval means Canary will add this coin to its list of numerous other crypto ETFs. Should it pass, the MOG ETF would be the next step in the broader adoption of community-based digital currencies in more regulated markets.

MOG got renewed optimism in its market data after the announcement of ETF. According to CoinMarketCap, MOG traded at $0.06375, rising by up to 21.62% before dropping to its current price.
