Asset manager Hashdex announced the Crypto Index US ETF now lists XRP, SOL and XLM after the SEC adopted generic listing standards for eligible cryptocurrencies. The ETF is listed on Nasdaq under the ticker NCIQ and holds the five constituents on a one-to-one basis with on‑exchange custody and surveillance mechanisms in place.
How did the SEC’s generic listing rule change accelerate approvals?
The SEC’s generic listing framework, approved in September, sets objective eligibility criteria for ETFs tied to commodities or futures. To qualify, a cryptocurrency must be classed as a commodity or have futures contracts on regulated exchanges and participate in financial surveillance systems such as the intermarket surveillance group standards.
Under the new process, exchanges can list eligible crypto ETFs using a standardized generic notice, which reduces review time versus individualized 19b filings. Regulators and industry analysts expect this to prompt a surge in ETF filings, improving market access for investors and narrowing the gap between traditional finance and digital assets.
The Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, approved Sept. 17, was the first multi-asset crypto ETF; Hashdex’s NCIQ is the second, each reflecting the SEC’s shift toward commodity classification for many tokens. SEC Chair Paul Atkins has advocated policy changes including an “innovation exemption” and clearer market structure rules to support digital finance innovation.

The ETF holds Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL) and Stellar (XLM) on a 1:1 basis, listed on Nasdaq under ticker NCIQ.
A cryptocurrency qualifies if it is treated as a commodity or has regulated futures contracts, and if trading is covered by recognized intermarket surveillance and custody arrangements that meet exchange standards.
Industry participants and market analysts expect increased filing activity due to the generic listing rules, though approval still requires exchanges and ETFs to meet surveillance and custody criteria.
The expansion of Hashdex’s Crypto Index US ETF under the SEC’s generic listing framework marks a significant step for multi-asset crypto ETFs in the U.S. The approval of NCIQ, alongside Grayscale’s large‑cap fund, signals a regulatory pivot toward commodity treatment and standardized listings. Investors should monitor ETF filings and market surveillance disclosures as more multi-asset products seek Nasdaq listings in the months ahead.
