Grayscale Adds Cardano to Its Digital Large Cap Fund

Grayscale Investments added ADA, the native token of the Cardano blockchain, to its Digital Large Cap Fund.

• The digital-asset manager has sold some existing constituents of the fund and used the proceeds to purchase ADA, an announcement Friday said.
• The addition comes as part of Grayscale's quarterly rebalancing of the fund. In April, Grayscale added Chainlink's LINK token.
• Cardano is a proof-of-stake blockchain that aims to surpass the scalability and efficiency of Ethereum.
• ADA has risen more than 600% year to date, and is sitting at $1.36, up 1.81% in the last 24 hours at press time.
• Grayscale is owned by Digital Currency Group, the parent company of CoinDesk.
