The AI sector has the most new candidate assets, including a total of 9 projects: Fabric Protocol, Flock, Grass, Kaito, Kite AI, Nous Research, Poseidon, Venice, and Virtuals Protocol.

In the smart contract platform sector, 6 new projects have been added: Celo, Mantle, MegaETH, Monad, Toncoin, and Tron, with Canton Network also included. The utility tools sector has added DoubleZero, Geodnet, Helium, Jito, LayerZero, and Wormhole.

Currently, Grayscale's existing product suite covers mainstream assets such as BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, AVAX, BNB, and ADA. The candidate list does not guarantee that related products will be launched, and Grayscale has stated that it will update the list within 15 days after the end of each quarter.
