The PENGU Spot ETF is the first NFT-based crypto ETF application, as Canary Capital aims to merge NFTs and DeFi—will the SEC approve this groundbreaking move

January 2024 marked a pivotal point in the crypto industry: the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a bunch of 

 (ETFs) after a decade of resisting it. Later that year, several Ethereum (ETH) Spot ETFs were also approved. These early successes encouraged investment funds focused on digital assets to seek approvals for other 

 (AVAX) and other high-cap cryptos have ended up on the SEC's desk in recent months.

Until Mar 20, 2025, one thing had never occurred: an 

-based crypto ETF application. Such a move was thought to border on impossibility, given how stringently and at length the SEC evaluated ETF applications even for established fungible cryptos. And yet, the Canary Capital investment manager submitted an application to the SEC for approval of the first NFT-focused crypto ETF product, the PENGU Spot ETF, triggering a mini-revolution in the emerging space at the junction of crypto and traditional finance.

If approved, this ETF will be the first of its kind in the industry, based on a mix of 

. Many observers expect Canary Capital to struggle mightily for SEC endorsement of its revolutionary product. Nevertheless, the SEC now has a track record of approving crypto ETFs — which raises hopes for both the altcoin ETFs mentioned above and the PENGU Spot ETF application.

The PENGU Spot ETF is a proposed exchange-traded fund (ETF) product introduced by the Canary Capital investment management firm, and is currently awaiting approval by the SEC. 

 on Mar 20, 2025, making this the first crypto ETF product with an NFT component that’s vying for the approval of America's primary financial regulator. The ETF has been registered in the US state of Delaware.

The Pengu Spot ETF's portfolio is envisioned as consisting primarily of PENGU tokens that will make up anywhere between 80% and 95% of total assets held, with the rest allocated to Pudgy Penguins NFTs. Small portions of Solana's SOL coins and Ethereum's ETH tokens will also be included in order to facilitate transactions and liquidity support, as PENGU tokens are mainly issued on the Solana blockchain, and Pudgy Penguins NFTs are an Ethereum-based collection. 

Since Canary Capital will hold these assets and periodically rebalance the portfolio, gas fee payments on Solana and Ethereum will apply, with fees paid in SOL and ETH, respectively.

Launched in 2021 on Solana, the Pudgy Penguins NFT collection consists of 8,888 items, each depicting a cute penguin with a distinct combination of five different traits. In December 2024, the project introduced a related fungible cryptocurrency, the Ethereum-based PENGU token. As of Apr 2, 2025, PENGU is a smaller-cap asset, ranked 191st in the crypto market, with a total 

 of $319 million. In contrast, Pudgy Penguins are among the leading projects in the NFT space, ranked second among all NFT collections, with a market cap of $155 million.

Canary Capital's application to the SEC is unique in two ways: it’s the first ETF with an NFT component, and it marks the first time ETF approval has been sought for a relatively smaller-cap cryptocurrency, PENGU, which isn’t even among the top 100 crypto assets by market cap. All of the other crypto ETF applications approved by the SEC (or currently vying for approval) are based on high-cap, leading assets that are typically ranked within the top 30.

As of Apr 2, 2025, the SEC has had the application for the PENGU Spot ETF application for just two weeks. The regulator has up to 240 days to review such applications, although historically, the SEC has pondered over crypto ETF applications for years. Now, however, the string of Bitcoin and Ethereum Spot ETF approvals in 2024 raises hopes that newer submissions may be subject to an already established evaluation framework — and thus greenlighted much faster.

At the moment, the SEC is also considering spot ETF applications for several high-cap cryptocurrencies, including Dogecoin, Solana, Polkadot, 

 (XRP). If the regulator decides to approve the applications in batch mode — all or several at once — Canary Capital will have reason to hope that its ETF is included.

However, there's been skepticism regarding the PENGU Spot ETF application, with some analysts believing that its chances might differ from those of the larger, more established altcoin ETFs. This isn't surprising, as a PENGU Spot ETF would be a distinct product, being the first NFT-focused ETF. In addition, NFTs have more limited liquidity than fungible cryptocurrencies. 

NFTs may also be harder to valuate objectively. The prices of fungible cryptos are easily sourced from the crypto market, where supply and demand establish their value. In contrast, the limited liquidity and uniqueness of NFTs makes it much harder to price them efficiently.

Moreover, the PENGU token — which will make up most of the proposed ETF — isn't among the most traded assets in the crypto market. Because PENGU has a modest position in the crypto space (along with its origins as a 

), the SEC could view it with more skepticism than it does the leading altcoins.

Naturally, all these factors are just speculation at this point, and we’ll need to wait on the SEC’s initial comments regarding the first NFT-based ETF under their consideration in order to form a more defined view of the product's prospects for approval.

Current impact of the PENGU Spot ETF application on the crypto market

The news of the PENGU Spot ETF application has so far had no appreciable impact on the price of the PENGU token itself. On the day of the application (Mar 20, 2025), the token was trading at around $0.007. Two weeks later, it's still hovering around the same price. 

On the other hand, there's been a modest increase in the average price of Pudgy Penguins NFTs traded on the market: between March 20 and 28, the average price rose by 16% from around $16,450 to $19,120, though it has since retraced slightly to $17,490 as of Apr 2.

Given the modest price effect, investors are likely still cautious about the chances for the PENGU Spot ETF's approval.

However, if it is approved, the broader impact on the crypto market could be far-reaching, as such a step would signify the SEC's openness to both NFT-based ETFs, and ETFs made up of smaller-cap cryptocurrencies, including meme coins. The number of tokenized asset funds that offer NFT-based products would then be likely to increase significantly, facilitating mainstream NFT adoption within traditional financial markets.

An SEC approval of the PENGU Spot ETF may lead to a flurry of further ETF applications based on NFTs in some form. This could even include the first ETFs composed entirely of NFTs. Other crypto asset types — e.g., 

 (RWAs) — may also become candidates for the SEC’s consideration. Furthermore, in the unlikely event that Canary Capital’s PENGU Spot ETF were to be approved ahead of the altcoin spot ETFs currently in the SEC’s pipeline, it would send a very strong signal that those ETF applications are also a sure bet.

The current PENGU Spot ETF application is a pioneering event that may open up opportunities for NFT ETFs and other crypto ETFs based on partial NFT holdings. Although the SEC approved multiple Bitcoin Spot ETFs in early 2024, few people expected an NFT-based ETF to emerge so soon afterward. Probably even fewer expected a meme coin–based ETF to be taken seriously by the SEC. Unique in so many ways, the PENGU ETF flips the entire concept of traditional ETFs on its head.

Canary Capital's attempt to get approval for an NFT-backed ETF is truly a bold undertaking, though observers said the same thing about 

 just a few years ago. Someone needed to become a trailblazer in this area — and Canary Capital has taken up the noble role without hesitation. Now, all eyes are on the SEC as it prepares to weigh in on a product it has never before encountered.

PENGU Spot ETF: A bold move for NFT investing — or just hype?

In this article, we break down what to expect from Liberation Day and how it could shape the outlook for equities, the US economy and crypto markets.

 April 2, 2025 as "Liberation Day" — a moment he claims will restore America's trade fairness through sweeping reciprocal tariffs. With few concrete details confirmed, global markets remain on edge. Investors are bracing for the economic fallout of a potential trade war, and crypto traders are watching closely to assess the impact on digital assets. In this article, we break down what to expect from “Liberation Day” and how it could shape the outlook for equities, the US economy and crypto markets.

Since returning to the White House in January 2025, President Trump has prioritized reshaping US trade policy with a renewed focus on tariffs. His administration has already announced 

 on all steel and aluminum imports. Many of these actions take effect this week, coinciding with his so-called Liberation Day.

Trump argues that tariffs are a necessary tool to reduce the US trade deficit and force foreign nations to stop what he calls "economic warfare" against the American worker. Treasury secretary Scott Bessent 

 countries with persistent trade surpluses — dubbed the 

 — as primary targets for reciprocal tariffs. These include China, the EU, Canada and Mexico.

However, critics point to the growing risk of a global trade war, with multiple partners already threatening or initiating retaliatory measures. Goldman Sachs recently 

, citing declining business confidence and mounting economic uncertainty. The tariffs, designed to protect US industries, could instead raise prices and weigh on consumer spending.

What to expect from Trump's ‘Liberation Day’ announcement

Trump is expected to reveal his tariff plans in a Rose Garden press conference on April 2. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt 

 that the president would impose tariffs on "any country that has treated the American people unfairly" — though no nation-specific exemptions have been confirmed. Trump has promised these reciprocal tariffs will be 

While final details remain under wraps, proposals have included both country-wide and sector-specific tariffs. These could range from uniform, percentage-based levies to targeted charges on industries like pharmaceuticals, semiconductors and autos. Trump's advisers, including Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro and commerce secretary Howard Lutnick, claim the new tariffs could generate over $600 billion annually — though many economists dispute this figure.

Delayed tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports, 

 in early March, are also set to take effect this week. These include taxes on agricultural products, energy goods and automotive components. Trump has also 

 a 25% tariff on imports from countries that purchase oil or gas from Venezuela.

Given the administration's conflicting signals in recent weeks, there's a wide range of potential outcomes. Whether “Liberation Day” ushers in immediate enforcement, additional delays or future negotiation rounds remains to be seen. For now, uncertainty reigns.

Potential impact on the US economy and global markets

Economists warn that broad-based tariffs could lead to slower US growth, higher consumer prices and widening inequality. Goldman Sachs now 

 Trump's trade policies to reduce annual GDP growth to 1.5% from 2%, while the odds of a recession are being raised from 20% to 35%.

Global equity markets have already shown signs of stress. European and Asian indices dipped ahead of “Liberation Day,” while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 

 in March (respectively). Auto manufacturers, tech firms and retailers could be especially vulnerable if tariffs disrupt global supply chains.

There's also the question of the Federal Reserve's response. With inflation risks rising, policymakers may hold off on anticipated rate cuts, further complicating the economic outlook heading into Q2.

How will ‘Liberation Day’ affect the crypto industry?

Crypto markets have mirrored broader risk sentiment over the past quarter, with investors reducing exposure amid macroeconomic turbulence. As of April 1, the 

 is down 16.9% year-to-date. Bitcoin has fallen 10.48%, Ethereum 44.2% and Solana 33% — despite reaching new highs in January on hopes for pro-crypto policies from the Trump administration.

Investor optimism has since cooled as recession risks, inflation concerns and policy unpredictability drive a risk-off mood. Bitcoin dipped to $81,656 over the weekend, marking its weakest Q1 since 2018. Traders remain cautious ahead of “Liberation Day,” awaiting clarity before opening new positions.

“Liberation Day” could further weigh on crypto prices if market volatility increases and capital rotates out of risk assets. However, some analysts believe any resulting sell-off may offer an opportunity to 

 — especially if Trump follows through on crypto-friendly regulation later this year. For now, though, many eyes are on April 2.

With details still unknown, the crypto market remains in a "wait-and-see" phase. “Liberation Day” could mark a turning point — for better or worse — depending upon the scope and execution of Trump's tariff agenda.

The Fibonacci retracement is a technical tool for traders to find support or resistance levels based on the Fibonacci ratios. There are four primary levels to these ratios. Learn more here.

Fibonacci retracement levels are a popular tool used by traders to identify turning points in cryptocurrency prices. Without this tool, traders might enter into Bitcoin trades without confidence, which can lead to unnecessary losses.

While the Fibonacci retracement tool is commonly used in the traditional stock or forex market, you’ll be surprised to know that it works wonderfully for cryptocurrency markets too. 

In this guide, we’ll decipher the technicalities of this tool. In the end, you’ll learn how you can use it to find critical levels on a trading chart.

Fibonacci retracements are hidden levels of the horizontal lines of 

 where Bitcoin prices may potentially reverse. The main levels are 23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8% and 78.6%. 

The Fibonacci retracement is derived from 

, which occurs in nature and mathematics, introduced by an Italian mathematician. They are used in finance by traders when analyzing a price chart to determine potential turning points.  

The Fibonacci retracement is expressed as a percentage and is applied to a previous trend. The retracement indicates how much of the previous trend is likely to be corrected before a resumption of the older trend. The Fibonacci retracement tool converts the percentage into Bitcoin’s price, identifying where the market may pivot and change trends. 

These key Fibonacci ratios seem like random figures, but they are not. They are deeply rooted in an organic number sequence discovered by humans over 700 years ago. 

Fibonacci retracement percentages were created from the Fibonacci number sequence. Leonardo de Pisa discovered and shared this number sequence in his book, 

The Fibonacci number sequence looks like this:

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610 …

The next number in the sequence is always the sum of the previous two numbers. The Fibonacci number sequence comes alive when you look at the ratio between adjacent numbers in the sequence.

For example, 21 divided by 34 equals .6176. Notice how the ratio of two adjacent numbers moves closer to .618 as the number sequence extends to the right. The .618 ratio translates to a percentage of 61.8%, which is one of the key levels.

We can apply this methodology again, dividing by every other number in the sequence.

In the second example, 21 divided by 55 equals .3818. A ratio of every two numbers in the sequence drives toward .382, or 38.2%, the second key level.

If we apply this methodology a third time, dividing by every third number in the sequence, we find 21 divided by 89 equals .2360. As this number sequence moves to the right, the ratio moves toward .236, or 23.6%. This is the third Fibonacci retracement number.

The fourth and final level is 78.6%, or .786 — which is the square root of .618, our first key level. 

To apply the tool correctly, we first need a completed trend. The Fibonacci retracement tool will measure the length of the trend, then divide out the four key levels.

In the example above, let’s assume the uptrend started at $250 and topped out at $350, for a gain of $100.

The four ratios of 23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8%, and 78.6% are applied to the size of the trend, which is $100.

This first retracement level at 23.6% will correct $23.60 from the price high ($100 uptrend x 23.6% = $23.60). $350 minus $23.60 = $326.40. 

The second retracement level at 38.2% will correct $38.20 from the $350 high ($100 uptrend x 38.2% = $38.20).

The calculations are similar for the third and fourth levels, using 61.8% and 78.6% as the multipliers.

After these calculations have been made, we have four price zones where a correction of the downtrend may stop and reverse back into an uptrend. In the example above, the price temporarily stops at the 38.2% level before falling further to the 61.8% level. Prices eventually stabilize and rally back up to the 38.2% zone.

Fortunately, modern charting packages will compute these calculations automatically and paint the horizontal price zones on the chart. Therefore, all you need to do is learn how to use the Fibonacci retracement tool.

Drawing Fibonacci retracement levels is simple with the help of the tools.

At this point, the Fibonacci retracement levels will appear on the chart. Traders will focus on these levels to identify reversal points within the subsequent correction.

Using the Fibonacci Retracement Tool to Trade Crypto

The Fibonacci retracement tool is fairly simple to use and can be effective when trading crypto.

First, find a completed trend. The tool can be applied to both uptrends and downtrends. The tool can also be applied to all chart time frames.

 Second, draw the Fibonacci retracement lines in the direction of the completed trend. For a completed uptrend, that means drawing the Fibonacci retracement from left to right in an upward direction. For a completed downtrend, draw the pattern from left to right, stopping at the end of the downtrend.

Third, wait for the price to reverse near the four key levels. Focus on these key levels in order to anticipate a price reversal.

Fourth, enter the trade in the direction of the original trend. A retracement of an uptrend means prices will correct lower. Then, time an entry into a bullish trade near one of the four key Fibonacci retracement levels. Some traders will blindly enter into the position at the retracement level. Other traders will wait for the price to react and break higher before entering long.

Once a good trading opportunity has been identified, traders will want to place a stop loss just below the swing low of a long trade, or just above the swing high of a short setup. Set up a strong risk-to-reward ratio by placing a target at least twice the distance to the stop loss.

The Fibonacci retracement tool is most powerful when used in tandem with other

. For example, the Fibonacci level can send a buy or sell signal, but it may or may not reverse. It’s always best to confirm with indicators like 

Fibonacci Retracement Example for Bitcoin

There are many examples of Bitcoin reversing prices near a Fibonacci retracement level. The market is fractal, so you can find these examples within all chart time frames.

After finding a low on November 26, 2020 (1), Bitcoin rallied about 23% to complete a trend on the 1-hour chart (2). When applying the tool from point 1 to point 2, these price zones are created on the chart.

In the chart above, Bitcoin begins a consolidation which immediately sees it correct to the 23.6% retracement level (yellow highlight), before rallying back up to meet the old high. The next corrective dip brings Bitcoin down to the 38.2% retracement level on three different occasions (blue highlights).

Bitcoin eventually breaks below the 38.2% retracement level and finds the next level of support near the 61.8% retracement level. Its price then bounces between the 61.8% and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement levels a couple of times (orange highlights).

After finding support at the 61.8% retracement level, Bitcoin resumes its uptrend, breaking above the 38.2% and 23.6% levels. Notice that once the 23.6% level has been broken, Bitcoin trades sideways on top of it (green highlight) before stretching to new all-time highs.

When Bitcoin prices break above the Fibonacci retracement level directly ahead, it can signal that the market is ready to turn higher. A trader will look to go long on a break above the next Fibonacci level with a stop loss just below the recent swing low. Look to target at least twice the distance to your stop loss. 

Bitcoin started a new uptrend in September 2020 (1). This uptrend stalled and turned lower in April 2021 (2). Bitcoin’s price began going through a correction (3).

Bitcoin’s price found support at the 38.2% retracement level on two separate occasions (4). Frequently, you will see prices bounce between two Fibonacci retracement levels. In the chart above, Bitcoin has bounced between the 38.2% and 23.6% levels (points 4 and 5) as the bulls and bears battle. This example shows why Fibonacci retracement levels — both upward and downward — are important with respect to the market.

Confirming Fibonacci With Other Technical Indicators

Fibonacci retracement is an effective tool by itself. However, there are other tools that traders typically incorporate in order to strengthen their signals.

The Fibonacci extension tool is a natural complement to retracements. The tool can help determine how far the current trend may travel.

 and trend lines are useful with Fibonacci levels. If Bitcoin is approaching a retracement level, look for a candlestick pattern, such as the 

, to confirm a resumption of the new bull trend.

Lastly, Elliott Wave Theory uses Fibonacci retracements quite a lot. Elliott Wave is an analytical method that studies the geometry of the market. 

Fibonacci retracements are an effective tool, but they can be easily misunderstood.

First of all, if a trader draws them incorrectly, it can lead to the display of improper levels on the charts.

Secondly, smaller crypto markets may not have as much trading volume as a large 

 like Bitcoin. As a result, the Fibonacci retracement signals from a smaller market are not as reliable.

Finally, with four different levels to choose from, it is possible that the trader may focus on the wrong level, and, as a result, either miss a winning trade or take on a losing one.

The Fibonacci retracement tool is one of the most powerful in a trader’s toolbox. It can help you identify hidden levels of support and resistance so that you can time your trades better. However, the tool is not foolproof. This tool is less effective on cryptocurrencies with a smaller 

. In addition, it can be difficult to discern which level is the best one to use.
