Grayscale Launches Space and Time Trust for SXT Token Exposure

Grayscale, a leading digital asset-focused investment platform, has introduced the Grayscale Space and Time Trust. This new investment vehicle is designed to offer investors exposure to SXT, the native token of the Space and Time blockchain network. The Space and Time blockchain is engineered to provide verifiable, real-time database processing for smart contracts, artificial intelligence (AI), and decentralized applications. This innovative approach aims to bridge the gap between the decentralization and resilience of traditional blockchain technology and the performance of legacy data platforms, such as data warehouses.

The Space and Time blockchain addresses a critical limitation of traditional blockchains by offering scalable, transparent access to both on-chain and off-chain data. This is particularly important for decentralized finance (DeFi) and AI applications, where verifiable data integrity, provenance, and auditability are essential. By combining the reliability of blockchain networks with the performance of traditional data platforms, Space and Time strives to create a high-performance, decentralized data and compute layer that brings speed and efficiency while preserving transparency and data integrity.

Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary, Head of Product & Research at Grayscale, emphasized the importance of transparency in the next age of computing. "Verifiable data ensures that we can trust the underlying datasets used for AI and smart contract applications," she stated. The Grayscale Space and Time Trust enables investors to access a project that combines blockchain technology with enterprise-grade data architecture, facilitating a wide range of use cases across Web 2.0 and Web 3.0.

The Space and Time Foundation highlighted the convergence of AI and blockchain around the critical need for verifiable data. "Space and Time is built to solve this problem, bringing verifiability, transparency, and auditability to the data and compute that will drive the next generation of intelligent and decentralized applications," the Foundation noted.

The Grayscale Space and Time Trust is now open for daily subscription by eligible individual and institutional accredited investors. The Trust functions similarly to Grayscale’s other single-asset investment trusts, with the exception of any disclosures in the Private Placement Memorandum relating to the Trust. It is solely invested in the SXT token, which underpins the Space and Time protocol. The SXT token plays a critical role in securing the network through staking and facilitating data processing payments.

Investors should be aware that private placement securities are speculative, illiquid, and entail a high level of risk, including the potential loss of the entire investment. The Space and Time protocol, being relatively new, may face technological challenges that could adversely impact the value of SXT and an investment in the Trust. Additionally, the extreme volatility of digital assets could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Trust, potentially leading to significant losses.

Grayscale, founded in 2013, has a decade-long track record and deep expertise as a digital asset-focused investment platform. The company enables investors to access the digital economy through a family of future-forward investment products, offering single asset, diversified, and thematic exposure.
