Grayscale's Crypto Picks for the Quarter: Maple, Geodnet, and Story Shine Bright!

Grayscale Updates Crypto Asset Lists with Exciting Additions

Hang on to your hats, crypto fans! Grayscale, the big shot in asset management, just dropped their latest list of crypto assets they're eyeballing and adding to their lineup. This quarter, they're all about Maple, Geodnet, and Story—yep, those are the names you need to know!

Just on April 10, Grayscale Investments spiced things up by updating their lists. In the DeFi world, they're bringing in Mantra, Maple, Pendle, and Lombard. These are the movers and shakers that Grayscale believes could shake up the financial landscape.

But that's not all! In the AI and Data Oracles arena, Grayscale is betting on Sentient, Prime Intellect, and Space and Time. For those into Smart Contract Platforms, get ready for Babylon, Berachain, Celestia, and Hedera Hashgraph. And if Decentralized Identity and Web3 is your jam, Toncoin, Arbitrum, TRON, and VeChain are on the radar.

Now, let's talk NFTs and the Metaverse. Grayscale's got their eyes on Immutable, Story, and Aixbt. And for Utilities & Services, DeepBook, Eigen Layer, and Geodnet are stepping into the spotlight.

Hold up though, just because an asset's on the list doesn't mean it's a done deal for Grayscale's products. It's all about the ongoing hustle and grind of Grayscale's research team. They're aiming to shake things up every 15 days post-quarter, with the next big reveal set for mid-July 2025.

So how do these projects make the cut? It's all thanks to Grayscale's quarterly deep dives, where they sift through the crypto world to tweak the FTSE/Grayscale Crypto Sectors indexes. It's a wild ride of research and analysis!

From all that digging, they whip up a Top 20 list. This isn't just any list—it's a hot snapshot of projects with serious growth potential for the coming quarter. They look at everything from network growth to future plans, sustainability, token value, supply inflation, and potential risks.

This past quarter, Grayscale's been all about the application layer, not just the infrastructure. They're zeroing in on tokens with real, practical uses of blockchain tech, focusing on three big stories: tokenizing real-world assets, decentralized physical infrastructure, and intellectual property.

And let's circle back to the stars of the show: Maple, Geodnet, and Story Protocol. Grayscale is super pumped about these projects this quarter. Get ready, because these could be the next big things in crypto!
