T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF received SEC approval on June 12 2026, as the Securities and Exchange Commission signed off on NYSE Arca’s Amendment No. 2 to list and trade the fund’s shares. The clearance follows the original rule‑change filing on November 6 2025 and two subsequent amendments filed on April 21 and May 26 2026. Investors now await the completion of custody, compliance, and technical steps before the ETF becomes tradable.
Regulatory Clearance and Timeline
The SEC’s order, dated June 12 2026, specifically endorses Amendment No. 2 of the rule proposal, thereby opening the path for NYSE Arca to host the T. Rowe Price Active Crypto ETF. The original application entered the record on November 6 2025, with Amendment No. 1 submitted on April 21 2026 and Amendment No. 2 on May 26 2026. The fund operates as a Delaware statutory trust, managed by T. Rowe Price Sponsor LLC and overseen by CSC Delaware Trust Company.
Fund Composition and Active Strategy
The ETF targets a dynamic portfolio of five to fifteen digital assets drawn from a pre‑approved list of fifteen cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, XRP, Cardano, Avalanche, Litecoin, Polkadot, Dogecoin, Hedera, Bitcoin Cash, Chainlink, Stellar, Shiba Inu, and Sui. Under normal market conditions, the portfolio strives to hold between five and fifteen assets, though temporary deviations are permitted to capture short‑term opportunities. Benchmarking against the FTSE Crypto US Listed Index, the fund seeks to outperform through active allocation decisions rather than the static holdings of passive spot ETFs.
