Grayscale Investments listed the Chainlink Trust ETF (GLNK) on NYSE Arca on December 2, 2025, offering mainstream access to Chainlink’s LINK tokens.

The listing of Grayscale’s new ETF marks a significant step in mainstreaming Chainlink’s token (LINK) by facilitating institutional capital inflows, thus increasing network involvement.

Grayscale Investments, managing over $35 billion in assets, expands its portfolio by including the Chainlink Trust ETF. This launch underscores Grayscale’s trajectory of pioneering crypto investment vehicles, setting precedence through Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

Institutional exposure to Chainlink’s LINK token is expected to increase liquidity and visibility. The move might spur further utilization of Chainlink’s infrastructure in DeFi and interoperability applications, with possible network effects on other assets.

Institutional interest in decentralized oracles and tokenized economies grows with GLNK ETF’s launch. Grayscale’s reputation and managed assets promise impact, though volatility in LINK price poses investment risk.

Long-term forecasts suggest potential increased adoption of Chainlink’s technology across various sectors. Historical success of Grayscale’s prior trusts may hint at further liquidity and value appreciation for LINK, supporting its growing use in market applications.
