Canary Capital register TRUMP memecoin ETF in Delaware in latest altcoin bet
Canary Capital has registered a Trump Coin ETF in Delaware, a move that signals plans to launch a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracking the memecoin.
The entity, “Canary Trump Coin ETF,” was incorporated on Aug. 13, according to state records.
The registration is typically a precursor to filing an S-1 application with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and a corresponding 19b-4 form by a listing exchange.
If filed, the fund would be the third spot ETF tied to a meme coin, following applications for Dogecoin products from other major firms. Canary Capital has also filed for a PENGU ETF, making it one of the few U.S. asset managers to pursue multiple altcoin-based ETFs.
The firm’s strategy is unusual in a market where most crypto ETF efforts have centered on blue-chip digital assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), with occasional diversification into large-cap layer-1 tokens like Solana (SOL).
By targeting smaller, high-volatility meme coins, the firm is positioning itself in a niche segment often viewed as speculative and outside the mainstream ETF landscape. The firm’s CEO previously stated that the altcoin ETFs are a bet on undervalued digital assets.
The proposed Trump Coin ETF would give institutional investors direct exposure to the Solana-based TRUMP token, potentially injecting additional liquidity into the market and creating a regulated investment channel for what is otherwise a retail-driven asset.
The SEC has previously stated that meme coins are considered commodities, which could simplify the approval process compared to tokens deemed securities.

As both a shareholder of CoreWeave and its sole GPU supplier, Nvidia now faces a dilemma after the sharp decline in CoreWeave's stock price. If it intervenes, each rescue strengthens expectations of a safety net, raises the threshold for future rescues, and risks getting further entangled in this high-leverage game. If it does not intervene, CoreWeave's liquidity crisis will directly cut off demand for GPU purchases, simultaneously devaluing Nvidia's equity investment and severely damaging its market reputation.

"The New Fed News Agency" noted that, unlike in August when price increases were concentrated in certain items, the stronger-than-expected performance of September's core CPI was more broad-based, further reinforcing the case for a December rate hike. The speech by Waller on Friday morning Beijing time is his last public statement before the Fed's blackout period ahead of this month's meeting.
