Grayscale’s significant role in the cryptocurrency market is well-known. The company, recognized for providing opportunities to individuals and institutions wanting to invest in cryptocurrencies through its past initiatives, has taken another important step. Known for its substantial influence in both Bitcoin and Ethereum, Grayscale has announced two new cryptocurrency investment funds, drawing significant attention.
Grayscale’s Announcement
Before ETFs gained strength, Grayscale’s cryptocurrency investment funds were noteworthy. GBTC was the most prominent example, and its transformation into an ETF brought significant price challenges. Despite this, Grayscale’s unique approach helped reduce investors‘ hesitancy towards cryptocurrencies to some extent.
A significant development occurred recently, revealing that Grayscale has launched investment funds for SUI, which made headlines in 2023’s airdrop frenzy, and TAO, a project known for its price in the artificial intelligence sector. Following this development, attention turned to the prices of SUI and TAO.
TAO and SUI Prices
First, looking at the price of the AI-centric project Bittensor (TAO), it has increased by 5% today, reaching $266.24. This price level also reflects a 15% decrease over the past 7 days.
Meanwhile, TAO’s market cap has surpassed $1.9 billion following the price increase, ranking it 39th in market cap. However, TAO’s trading volume has decreased despite the price rise. In the last 24 hours, the trading volume dropped by 41.39%, amounting to $75 million.
On the other hand, SUI’s price has increased in the last hour and 24 hours. The price rose by 3.5% and 12.88%, respectively, reaching $0.6453. However, the price change over the past 7 days represents a 10% decrease.
SUI’s market cap increased to $1.675 billion, while its trading volume was only $192 million, reflecting decreased investor interest.
It remains to be seen how Grayscale’s decision will impact these two cryptocurrency projects and what feedback it will receive from investors.
