Grayscale Launches Avalanche Staking ETF with Initial Fee Waiver

News Flash 2026-03-13 21:02

Grayscale has introduced the Avalanche Staking ETF (GAVA), an exchange-traded product not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. This means GAVA is not subject to the same regulations as 40 Act registered ETFs and mutual funds, posing a high degree of risk and volatility. The fund is not suitable for investors who cannot afford to lose their entire investment, as it does not represent a direct investment in AVAX. GAVA offers a 0% gross expense ratio for the first three months or until it reaches $1 billion in assets, after which a 0.35% fee will apply. The fund involves staking AVAX, which requires locking up the asset, making it illiquid and subject to risks such as security breaches and network downtime. Staking rewards are earned by the fund, not directly by investors. Foreside Fund Services, LLC serves as the marketing agent for GAVA.
