The PENGU Spot ETF is the first NFT-based crypto ETF application, as Canary Capital aims to merge NFTs and DeFi—will the SEC approve this groundbreaking move

January 2024 marked a pivotal point in the crypto industry: the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a bunch of 

 (ETFs) after a decade of resisting it. Later that year, several Ethereum (ETH) Spot ETFs were also approved. These early successes encouraged investment funds focused on digital assets to seek approvals for other 

 (AVAX) and other high-cap cryptos have ended up on the SEC's desk in recent months.

Until Mar 20, 2025, one thing had never occurred: an 

-based crypto ETF application. Such a move was thought to border on impossibility, given how stringently and at length the SEC evaluated ETF applications even for established fungible cryptos. And yet, the Canary Capital investment manager submitted an application to the SEC for approval of the first NFT-focused crypto ETF product, the PENGU Spot ETF, triggering a mini-revolution in the emerging space at the junction of crypto and traditional finance.

If approved, this ETF will be the first of its kind in the industry, based on a mix of 

. Many observers expect Canary Capital to struggle mightily for SEC endorsement of its revolutionary product. Nevertheless, the SEC now has a track record of approving crypto ETFs — which raises hopes for both the altcoin ETFs mentioned above and the PENGU Spot ETF application.

The PENGU Spot ETF is a proposed exchange-traded fund (ETF) product introduced by the Canary Capital investment management firm, and is currently awaiting approval by the SEC. 

 on Mar 20, 2025, making this the first crypto ETF product with an NFT component that’s vying for the approval of America's primary financial regulator. The ETF has been registered in the US state of Delaware.

The Pengu Spot ETF's portfolio is envisioned as consisting primarily of PENGU tokens that will make up anywhere between 80% and 95% of total assets held, with the rest allocated to Pudgy Penguins NFTs. Small portions of Solana's SOL coins and Ethereum's ETH tokens will also be included in order to facilitate transactions and liquidity support, as PENGU tokens are mainly issued on the Solana blockchain, and Pudgy Penguins NFTs are an Ethereum-based collection. 

Since Canary Capital will hold these assets and periodically rebalance the portfolio, gas fee payments on Solana and Ethereum will apply, with fees paid in SOL and ETH, respectively.

Launched in 2021 on Solana, the Pudgy Penguins NFT collection consists of 8,888 items, each depicting a cute penguin with a distinct combination of five different traits. In December 2024, the project introduced a related fungible cryptocurrency, the Ethereum-based PENGU token. As of Apr 2, 2025, PENGU is a smaller-cap asset, ranked 191st in the crypto market, with a total 

 of $319 million. In contrast, Pudgy Penguins are among the leading projects in the NFT space, ranked second among all NFT collections, with a market cap of $155 million.

Canary Capital's application to the SEC is unique in two ways: it’s the first ETF with an NFT component, and it marks the first time ETF approval has been sought for a relatively smaller-cap cryptocurrency, PENGU, which isn’t even among the top 100 crypto assets by market cap. All of the other crypto ETF applications approved by the SEC (or currently vying for approval) are based on high-cap, leading assets that are typically ranked within the top 30.

As of Apr 2, 2025, the SEC has had the application for the PENGU Spot ETF application for just two weeks. The regulator has up to 240 days to review such applications, although historically, the SEC has pondered over crypto ETF applications for years. Now, however, the string of Bitcoin and Ethereum Spot ETF approvals in 2024 raises hopes that newer submissions may be subject to an already established evaluation framework — and thus greenlighted much faster.

At the moment, the SEC is also considering spot ETF applications for several high-cap cryptocurrencies, including Dogecoin, Solana, Polkadot, 

 (XRP). If the regulator decides to approve the applications in batch mode — all or several at once — Canary Capital will have reason to hope that its ETF is included.

However, there's been skepticism regarding the PENGU Spot ETF application, with some analysts believing that its chances might differ from those of the larger, more established altcoin ETFs. This isn't surprising, as a PENGU Spot ETF would be a distinct product, being the first NFT-focused ETF. In addition, NFTs have more limited liquidity than fungible cryptocurrencies. 

NFTs may also be harder to valuate objectively. The prices of fungible cryptos are easily sourced from the crypto market, where supply and demand establish their value. In contrast, the limited liquidity and uniqueness of NFTs makes it much harder to price them efficiently.

Moreover, the PENGU token — which will make up most of the proposed ETF — isn't among the most traded assets in the crypto market. Because PENGU has a modest position in the crypto space (along with its origins as a 

), the SEC could view it with more skepticism than it does the leading altcoins.

Naturally, all these factors are just speculation at this point, and we’ll need to wait on the SEC’s initial comments regarding the first NFT-based ETF under their consideration in order to form a more defined view of the product's prospects for approval.

Current impact of the PENGU Spot ETF application on the crypto market

The news of the PENGU Spot ETF application has so far had no appreciable impact on the price of the PENGU token itself. On the day of the application (Mar 20, 2025), the token was trading at around $0.007. Two weeks later, it's still hovering around the same price. 

On the other hand, there's been a modest increase in the average price of Pudgy Penguins NFTs traded on the market: between March 20 and 28, the average price rose by 16% from around $16,450 to $19,120, though it has since retraced slightly to $17,490 as of Apr 2.

Given the modest price effect, investors are likely still cautious about the chances for the PENGU Spot ETF's approval.

However, if it is approved, the broader impact on the crypto market could be far-reaching, as such a step would signify the SEC's openness to both NFT-based ETFs, and ETFs made up of smaller-cap cryptocurrencies, including meme coins. The number of tokenized asset funds that offer NFT-based products would then be likely to increase significantly, facilitating mainstream NFT adoption within traditional financial markets.

An SEC approval of the PENGU Spot ETF may lead to a flurry of further ETF applications based on NFTs in some form. This could even include the first ETFs composed entirely of NFTs. Other crypto asset types — e.g., 

 (RWAs) — may also become candidates for the SEC’s consideration. Furthermore, in the unlikely event that Canary Capital’s PENGU Spot ETF were to be approved ahead of the altcoin spot ETFs currently in the SEC’s pipeline, it would send a very strong signal that those ETF applications are also a sure bet.

The current PENGU Spot ETF application is a pioneering event that may open up opportunities for NFT ETFs and other crypto ETFs based on partial NFT holdings. Although the SEC approved multiple Bitcoin Spot ETFs in early 2024, few people expected an NFT-based ETF to emerge so soon afterward. Probably even fewer expected a meme coin–based ETF to be taken seriously by the SEC. Unique in so many ways, the PENGU ETF flips the entire concept of traditional ETFs on its head.

Canary Capital's attempt to get approval for an NFT-backed ETF is truly a bold undertaking, though observers said the same thing about 

 just a few years ago. Someone needed to become a trailblazer in this area — and Canary Capital has taken up the noble role without hesitation. Now, all eyes are on the SEC as it prepares to weigh in on a product it has never before encountered.

PENGU Spot ETF: A bold move for NFT investing — or just hype?

In this article, we break down what to expect from Liberation Day and how it could shape the outlook for equities, the US economy and crypto markets.

 April 2, 2025 as "Liberation Day" — a moment he claims will restore America's trade fairness through sweeping reciprocal tariffs. With few concrete details confirmed, global markets remain on edge. Investors are bracing for the economic fallout of a potential trade war, and crypto traders are watching closely to assess the impact on digital assets. In this article, we break down what to expect from “Liberation Day” and how it could shape the outlook for equities, the US economy and crypto markets.

Since returning to the White House in January 2025, President Trump has prioritized reshaping US trade policy with a renewed focus on tariffs. His administration has already announced 

 on all steel and aluminum imports. Many of these actions take effect this week, coinciding with his so-called Liberation Day.

Trump argues that tariffs are a necessary tool to reduce the US trade deficit and force foreign nations to stop what he calls "economic warfare" against the American worker. Treasury secretary Scott Bessent 

 countries with persistent trade surpluses — dubbed the 

 — as primary targets for reciprocal tariffs. These include China, the EU, Canada and Mexico.

However, critics point to the growing risk of a global trade war, with multiple partners already threatening or initiating retaliatory measures. Goldman Sachs recently 

, citing declining business confidence and mounting economic uncertainty. The tariffs, designed to protect US industries, could instead raise prices and weigh on consumer spending.

What to expect from Trump's ‘Liberation Day’ announcement

Trump is expected to reveal his tariff plans in a Rose Garden press conference on April 2. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt 

 that the president would impose tariffs on "any country that has treated the American people unfairly" — though no nation-specific exemptions have been confirmed. Trump has promised these reciprocal tariffs will be 

While final details remain under wraps, proposals have included both country-wide and sector-specific tariffs. These could range from uniform, percentage-based levies to targeted charges on industries like pharmaceuticals, semiconductors and autos. Trump's advisers, including Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro and commerce secretary Howard Lutnick, claim the new tariffs could generate over $600 billion annually — though many economists dispute this figure.

Delayed tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports, 

 in early March, are also set to take effect this week. These include taxes on agricultural products, energy goods and automotive components. Trump has also 

 a 25% tariff on imports from countries that purchase oil or gas from Venezuela.

Given the administration's conflicting signals in recent weeks, there's a wide range of potential outcomes. Whether “Liberation Day” ushers in immediate enforcement, additional delays or future negotiation rounds remains to be seen. For now, uncertainty reigns.

Potential impact on the US economy and global markets

Economists warn that broad-based tariffs could lead to slower US growth, higher consumer prices and widening inequality. Goldman Sachs now 

 Trump's trade policies to reduce annual GDP growth to 1.5% from 2%, while the odds of a recession are being raised from 20% to 35%.

Global equity markets have already shown signs of stress. European and Asian indices dipped ahead of “Liberation Day,” while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 

 in March (respectively). Auto manufacturers, tech firms and retailers could be especially vulnerable if tariffs disrupt global supply chains.

There's also the question of the Federal Reserve's response. With inflation risks rising, policymakers may hold off on anticipated rate cuts, further complicating the economic outlook heading into Q2.

How will ‘Liberation Day’ affect the crypto industry?

Crypto markets have mirrored broader risk sentiment over the past quarter, with investors reducing exposure amid macroeconomic turbulence. As of April 1, the 

 is down 16.9% year-to-date. Bitcoin has fallen 10.48%, Ethereum 44.2% and Solana 33% — despite reaching new highs in January on hopes for pro-crypto policies from the Trump administration.

Investor optimism has since cooled as recession risks, inflation concerns and policy unpredictability drive a risk-off mood. Bitcoin dipped to $81,656 over the weekend, marking its weakest Q1 since 2018. Traders remain cautious ahead of “Liberation Day,” awaiting clarity before opening new positions.

“Liberation Day” could further weigh on crypto prices if market volatility increases and capital rotates out of risk assets. However, some analysts believe any resulting sell-off may offer an opportunity to 

 — especially if Trump follows through on crypto-friendly regulation later this year. For now, though, many eyes are on April 2.

With details still unknown, the crypto market remains in a "wait-and-see" phase. “Liberation Day” could mark a turning point — for better or worse — depending upon the scope and execution of Trump's tariff agenda.

The S&P 500 rose 0.38% as investors awaited new tariffs amid weak factory data and declining job openings. Gold eased to $3,113 after hitting a record high, driven by profit-taking ahead of Trump's tariff announcement, but remains strong due to safe-haven demand and economic uncertainties.

 and ignore the cheers for all-time highs? The global financial markets are undergoing a transformative macro boom, driven by bullish stock market rallies, historic surges in gold prices and heightened volatility across asset classes. As geopolitical tensions, inflationary pressures and monetary policy shifts reshape the investment landscape, traders are being presented with unparalleled opportunities to diversify and capitalize on cross-market dynamics. 

From gold’s ascent past $3,000 per ounce to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 

 reaching new highs, this interconnected environment is offering crypto traders the chance to leverage strategic fund rotation across gold, forex, stocks and cryptocurrencies. 

In this article, we’ll explore these drivers and provide actionable insights into navigating this unprecedented macroeconomic wave.

The current macro boom isn’t a random phenomenon. Rather, it’s the result of interconnected global events reshaping the financial landscape. From surging gold prices to bullish equity markets, developments are being driven by a mix of geopolitical tensions, monetary policy shifts and economic recovery efforts. Understanding these drivers is essential for traders aiming to position themselves strategically in the face of upcoming macroeconomic catalysts and heightened volatility.

Gold has reached historic highs, surpassing $3,000 per ounce for the first time in history. This unprecedented milestone is underpinned by several key factors.

These factors collectively underscore why gold remains an indispensable asset during periods of economic and geopolitical uncertainty.

Equity markets also experienced a robust rally in 2024, with indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 posting strong gains. This bullish momentum reflects renewed optimism in global markets, despite lingering uncertainties.

While the above factors have supported equity markets so far, experts caution that volatility remains a key risk, due to potential corrections driven by geopolitical shocks and/or shifts in monetary policy.

Beneath the surface of this macro boom lies significant economic uncertainty that continues to shape market dynamics.

While these uncertainties pose challenges for policymakers and businesses alike, they also create opportunities for traders to capitalize on price movements across asset classes.For traders willing to navigate these complexities strategically, this environment offers significant opportunities for gains while underscoring the importance of diversification and risk management across markets.

Gold vs. crypto: complement or competition?

Is there a world in which both physical gold and “digital gold” can coexist and thrive? 

Gold and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are often pitted against each other due to their roles as alternative assets. In actuality, they serve distinct purposes in portfolios. 

With its centuries-long history, gold is widely regarded as the ultimate safe haven during economic uncertainty. Its stability and low correlation with equities make it an effective hedge against inflation, geopolitical turmoil and systemic market shocks. For example, gold prices surged by over 25% during the 2008 financial crisis and recently climbed past $3,000 per ounce amid global economic concerns in 2025.

While traditional gold remains a reliable hedge, traders who want the same stability with more flexibility can turn to 

). These assets are pegged to the price of physical gold and backed by real reserves, allowing holders to gain exposure to gold’s value while transacting on-chain. With the ability to trade 24/7, fractionalize ownership and move seamlessly across wallets and exchanges, gold-backed tokens are becoming a popular option for crypto-native investors looking to diversify without leaving the blockchain ecosystem.

On the other hand, Bitcoin emerged after the Great Financial Crisis as a decentralized digital asset designed to bypass traditional financial systems. While often dubbed 

 (due to its fixed supply of 21 million coins and potential as an inflation hedge), Bitcoin’s inherently high volatility makes it more attractive to risk-tolerant traders seeking explosive speculative growth. Despite these differences, both assets have seen increased institutional adoption, with 

 recently enabling easier access for investors.

Rather than competing directly, gold and Bitcoin can indeed complement each other within a diversified portfolio. Gold provides stability during crises, acting as a defensive asset that cushions portfolios against drawdowns. Bitcoin offers growth potential fueled by technological innovation and adoption cycles, making it suitable for traders seeking higher returns.

Interestingly, recent market trends suggest convergence between the two: Bitcoin’s resilience alongside gold during periods of volatility indicates that both may now fulfill similar roles as hedges against macroeconomic risks. However, their divergence in risk profiles underscores the importance of balancing these assets (based on individual investment goals and 

This divergence results from the contrast between gold’s predictable regulatory framework and Bitcoin’s susceptibility to liquidity shifts and regulatory changes. Together, the two assets offer unique strengths that cater to different needs in today’s interconnected financial landscape.

Before diving into the intricacies of stocks and crypto, it’s essential first to consider the landmark announcement represented by spot crypto ETFs.

The increasing correlation between the stock and crypto markets is becoming undeniable, particularly for seasoned crypto traders observing the rise of spot crypto 

 (ETFs) within traditional finance (TradFi). This regulatory milestone provides institutions with a structured avenue to gain exposure to digital assets, and signals a significant step toward mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrencies as legitimate financial instruments.

Notably, the rising popularity of Bitcoin Spot ETFs and 

 exemplifies this progress, as they effectively bridge the gap between traditional and 

 (DeFi). The substantial inflows of funds into these ETFs underscore the deepening relationship between the stock and crypto markets, offering both valuable insights and opportunities for traders who must now navigate this increasingly intertwined landscape.

What’s the link between crypto and stocks?

The correlation between stocks and cryptocurrencies has grown significantly, and is primarily driven by shared investor sentiment and overlapping market dynamics. Large-cap coins like Bitcoin often move in tandem with traditional markets during risk-on periods as traders seek high-yield opportunities across diversified asset classes. This connection is particularly pronounced in the tech sector, where Bitcoin’s performance aligns with tech-heavy indices like the Nasdaq-100, reflecting BTC’s adoption by tech-savvy investors.

Additionally, stock market events such as positive earnings reports from companies like Tesla or Amazon can bolster confidence across both equities and crypto markets as traders take on a more risk-on approach. Similarly, macroeconomic data releases, such as Federal Reserve rate decisions or unemployment figures, can also trigger volatility in stocks and crypto alike, creating lucrative opportunities for traders to capitalize on price fluctuations across the two interconnected markets.

3 reasons why rotating capital between markets is an essential cross-market strategy for crypto traders

1. Tap into global liquidity across asset classes

With the introduction of spot crypto ETFs, stock market indices trading at close to all-time highs and a renewed interest in gold as a portfolio hedge, there’s never been greater liquidity across various financial markets. As such, rotating capital between markets is a valid cross-market strategy for crypto traders seeking to maximize returns and mitigate risks in today’s interconnected financial landscape. The ability to shift one’s funds dynamically across asset classes such as cryptocurrencies, gold, forex and stock indices allows traders to capitalize on varying market conditions and economic cycles. 

2. Align with market cycles to maximize returns

From adopting an aggressive risk-on approach by positioning one’s portfolio in tech stocks and crypto, to rotating toward defensive assets like consumer defensive stocks and gold during times of volatility, the possibilities are endless for those who are well-versed with market cycles and the way they tend to affect asset prices.

For instance, during periods of heightened inflation or geopolitical uncertainty, allocating capital to gold can act as a hedge against currency devaluation, while bullish trends in equity markets provide opportunities for growth-focused investments in indices like the S&P 500 or Nasdaq-100.

3. Seize volatility-driven opportunities across markets

Similarly, forex markets offer liquidity and volatility-driven opportunities when major currencies react to macroeconomic events, such as interest rate decisions or trade policy shifts. For crypto traders, this strategy is particularly valuable, as it enables them to leverage their expertise in volatile environments while diversifying exposure to traditional assets that may exhibit lower correlation to digital currencies.

 as they offer seamless multi-asset trading capabilities, zero-fee indices trading and advanced tools for efficient fund rotation. By adopting a cross-market strategy, traders can optimize their portfolios, reduce reliance on single-market performance and enhance resilience against unpredictable economic shocks.

The Bybit Gold&FX zero-fee indices trading advantage

 offers numerous benefits to allow for frictionless trading as you’re rotating your funds across various markets. This includes the following advantages:

When coupled with MT5 integration, Bybit's zero-fee indices enable traders to efficiently move funds across diverse forex, gold and stock indices without incurring excessive trading fees. Combined with high leverage and robust liquidity, this ultimately enables rapid portfolio adjustments based on market conditions. The platform's comprehensive tools and copy trading features further streamline this process, minimizing friction and maximizing flexibility for traders seeking to capitalize on opportunities across various asset classes.

The current macro boom presents lucrative opportunities for crypto traders willing to diversify into traditional markets, such as gold and stock indices, while leveraging cutting-edge trading platforms like Bybit for seamless fund-rotation across asset classes. 

Whether investing in gold as a safe haven during economic uncertainty or capitalizing on stock market volatility fueled by earnings growth and dovish monetary policies, cross-market strategies empower crypto traders to position themselves strategically for success amidst the current unprecedented macro boom — an essential tactic for thriving in today’s interconnected financial ecosystem.
