According to a recent statement, the Grayscale Dynamic Income Fund is only available to clients with more than $1.1 million assets under management or a net worth of more than $2.2 million.
The fund intends to convert staking rewards into United States dollars weekly, with distributions planned quarterly for investors. Additionally, Grayscale claims that careful analysis will be conducted to select the proof-of-stake (PoS) tokens included in the fund’s portfolio. “Grayscale manages the complexity of staking and unstaking multiple tokens as each token has its own individual timelines and requirements to be staked and unstaked.”
The main priority of the fund is to maximize staking income from the assets, with capital growth as a secondary focus, according to Grayscale.
Crypto staking involves locking up crypto tokens to earn interest or rewards, which in turn ensures the secure and efficient operation of the blockchain network.
Grayscale has named three PoS tokens that will be held in the fund: Osmosis (OSMO) has a 24% share, Solana (SOL) has 20%, and Polkadot (DOT) has 14%, while 43% is categorized under other tokens.
OSMO currently offers a staking reward rate of 11.09%, SOL offers 7.42%, and DOT is at 11.9%, according to data from Staking Rewards.
However, only SOL ranks among the top 10 PoS tokens by market capitalization, as per CoinMarketCap data.The crypto holdings are subject to change at Grayscale’s discretion. Source: Grayscale
