Grayscale has updated its internal list of digital assets under review for potential inclusion in future investment products, expanding the inventory to 27 tokens spanning artificial intelligence, decentralized finance (DeFi), consumer, and infrastructure categories. This disclosure highlights assets not currently held in any Grayscale vehicle but flagged as candidates for product development. The list, current as of January 12, 2026, includes seven newly added assets for 2026, such as MegaETH, ARIA Protocol, and Nous Research, alongside 20 previously categorized assets like Polkadot, Jupiter, and Worldcoin. Grayscale manages approximately $35 billion in AUM as of September 30, 2025. The firm emphasizes that inclusion on this consideration list does not guarantee a product launch, as creation requires internal review, custody arrangements, and regulatory approval. The next routine update is anticipated around April 15, 2026.
