The Canary Staked TRX ETF is set to launch today on the Cboe BZX Exchange, offering U.S. investors a regulated product that combines exposure to TRON's price with on-chain staking rewards. This marks the first such product available to U.S. investors, allowing them to participate in the TRON network's proof-of-stake process without directly managing cryptocurrency wallets or dealing with lock-up periods.
Canary Capital confirmed the launch and provided details on the ETF's structure. The fund intends to stake approximately 90% of its TRON holdings under normal conditions, with staking rewards distributed among staking providers, the sponsor, and the custodian. The total staking fees are capped at 20% of the TRX staking rewards, meaning the Trust will retain 80% of these rewards. Canary Capital Group plans to purchase 10,000 shares at $25 per share as seed capital for the ETF.
Ahead of the launch, TRON's price has seen a modest increase, trading around $0.339 and up more than 1% in the last 24 hours. Analysts suggest the primary significance of this ETF lies in its accessibility for brokerage account holders rather than an immediate price impact on TRON itself. Derivatives markets show mixed sentiment, with TRON futures open interest rising on major exchanges like Binance, OKX, and Bybit, though it saw a slight decrease on Hyperliquid.
