Crypto.com Unveils 2025 Roadmap: ETF for Cronos and New Stablecoin on the Horizon

Crypto.com Unveils 2025 Roadmap: ETF Application for Cronos and New Stablecoin Launch Planned

Crypto.com, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, has revealed its 2025 roadmap, which includes plans to file an exchange-traded fund (ETF) application for its native token, Cronos (CRO), and launch a new stablecoin.
