CoinShares Launches DIME ETF, Giving U.S. Investors Access to Altcoins
CoinShares has launched the CoinShares Altcoins ETF (DIME), offering U.S. investors access to the altcoin market through their existing brokerage accounts. DIME aims to track the performance of the CoinShares-Compass Altcoins Index and will rebalance quarterly.
DIME provides exposure to approximately 70% of the crypto market currently inaccessible through traditional brokerages. It allocates investments equally across multiple ETPs holding different digital assets, including Solana (SOL), Polkadot (DOT), Cardano (ADA), and others. This diversification helps reduce risk.
DIME will start trading on the Nasdaq today from October 7, 2025. It offers exposure to emerging Layer 1 alternatives, interoperability protocols, and growing platforms. CoinShares' CEO, Jean-Marie Mognetti, sees DIME as a way to bring diversified altcoin exposure directly to American investors.
DIME has a waived management fee of 0.95% on assets under management up to $1 billion until September 30, 2026. The combined company, resulting from Vine Hill Capital Investment Corp.'s partnership with CoinShares, is expected to list publicly on the Nasdaq stock market today in the U.S. in the first half of 2024.
