The fund plans to allocate at least 80% of its net assets to the coin and related derivatives.
The TRUMP coin has attracted investors due to its political associations and speculative nature.
The world of finance and cryptocurrency collided this
week as investment managers Rex Shares and Osprey Funds filed paperwork for a
series of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) focused on digital assets, including the
headline-grabbing Trump Coin.
$TRUMP experienced a staggering $20 billion in trading
volume over the past 24 hours, marking a 48% decline. The meme token has soared
more than 500% in the past week.
A Presidential Memecoin
Launched by President Donald Trump just days before
his inauguration, the TRUMP coin has captivated investors with its high
volatility and political overtones.
Its fully diluted valuation hit $80 billion within 24
hours of launch, sparking a frenzy that even congested the Solana network.
Despite the buzz, memecoins like TRUMP and MELANIA (issued by First Lady
Melania Trump) hold no intrinsic value, relying purely on speculative trading.

The REX-Osprey TRUMP ETF would be the first fund to
track the performance of the TRUMP coin, offering institutional investors
exposure to its price movements.
According to filings with the SEC, the ETF plans to
allocate at least 80% of its net assets to the coin and related derivatives.
Although there remains uncertainty about the value of such funds, proponents
argue they provide a structured way to access emerging digital trends.
This wave of filings extends beyond the TRUMP coin. Rex
Shares and Osprey Funds also proposed ETFs for other memecoins, including
Dogecoin and BONK, as well as more established assets like Bitcoin and
Ethereum.
Regulatory and Market Uncertainty
While Trump's administration signals a potential
softening of crypto oversight, questions remain about whether regulators will
approve memecoin ETFs.
The SEC's cautious stance on cryptocurrency under
former Chair Gary Gensler slowed progress for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.
However, with President Trump promising to turn the U.S. into a “crypto
capital,” the regulatory landscape may shift.
Whether memecoins like TRUMP will secure a place in
institutional portfolios depends on regulatory decisions and market dynamics.
For now, the memecoin craze highlights the unpredictable intersection of
politics, finance, and digital assets.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
