Simplify seeks approval from the SEC for a Web 3.0 ETF
Simplify Asset Management is seeking approval from the United States SEC for approval of a Web 3.0 exchange-traded fund or ETF, the first of its kind. The firm had filed for the ETF on Wednesday, which aims to focus on Web 3.0, a decentralized version of the World Wide Web.
Simplify focused on Web 3.0
The Web 3.0 ETF will be the first of its kind and is named "The Simplify Volt Web3 ETF" as per the filing on Wednesday. The ticker of the ETF will be 'WIII' and aims to track all the Web 3.0 firms that benefit from the technology.As per the filing, the fee and expenses that investors will have to pay include 'Management Fees' (0.95) and might also include other expenses.
"The adviser and sub-adviser seek to achieve the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. and foreign Web3 companies," said Simplify's filing.
ETF won't invest in BTC directly
The Simplify Web 3.0 ETF won't invest any part of its funds into Bitcoin directly but would invest around 10% of its total asset in the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), a unit of Digital Currency Group.The management of the Simplify Volt Web3 ETF will be the responsibility of Simplify Asset Management CEO and co-founder Paul Kim and Chief Investment Officer and co-founder David Berns. If and when the ETF is approved, it will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or NYSE, like the ProShares Bitcoin Futures ETF.
The Web 3.0 and metaverse craze doesn't seem to stop as recently ProShares also filed for a metaverse ETF with the SEC, which will track the Solactive Metaverse Theme Index. This ETF will be called ProShares Metaverse Theme ETF.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
