The trading debut for the new fund, under the symbol “DEFG,” comes as Grayscale’s largest fund, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), is under distress, with its shares trading a record 47% discount to the value of the underlying cryptocurrency. Grayscale has said it’s operating business as usual, but speculation about the fund’s future has arisen among traders and on Twitter in recent weeks amid swirling questions about the finances of Grayscale’s parent company, Digital Currency Group, after a halt in crypto lending operations at another subsidiary, Genesis Global Capital. (CoinDesk is also a subsidiary of Digital Currency Group.)
