Three major US asset managers—Bitwise, VanEck, and Grayscale—have introduced spot ETFs for Avalanche (AVAX) that include staking features, allowing investors to earn yield on their holdings. Each fund stakes about 70% of its AVAX to generate an annualized yield of around 5.4%, with returns passed directly to investors after fees. This innovation offers investors not just price exposure but also yield, making these funds attractive for institutional investors seeking income from crypto assets. The funds launched sequentially throughout 2026, and competition on fees is expected as assets under management grow.
