Global impact / market context
If approved, this would give everyday investors a way to earn regular income from Zcash-linked options, possibly drawing more money into crypto funds and pushing other firms to file similar products.

The filing adds to a growing push for crypto-based exchange-traded funds, which let people buy fund shares that track crypto. It also shows Grayscale building income offerings on top of its existing Zcash trust.
