However, not all the assets being considered will be included in the future to be part of the vast Grayscale family of products. The announcement adds that adding new financial assets is complex and requires review and consideration. Therefore, including these assets in the list does not necessarily mean that they will be converted into actual investment products such as the Grayscale Bitcoin Fund.
The digital asset management firm also notes that some products might not have their own individual funds to give investors exposure to them directly. These assets could be included in the other assets added to the diverse Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund.
