AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Grayscale Chainlink Trust ETF (GLNK)

Grayscale Chainlink Trust ETF adds Binance, Gate and HashKey to its CoinDesk index venues

Neutral Impact 2 of 5 other Written later

The trust disclosed that CoinDesk Indices changed the trading platforms used to calculate the Index Price for its Chainlink benchmark, effective January 20, 2026. Binance, Gate and HashKey were added, and Bitfinex was removed after failing the index provider's inclusion conditions in a scheduled monthly review. The change alters which venues feed the price shareholders' holdings are measured against, but the filing does not describe any direct effect on the trust's finances.
