Valour Launches Bitcoin Staking ETP on London Stock Exchange
Valour Digital Securities, a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies (DEFT), has listed its Bitcoin staking exchange-traded product (ETP) on the London Stock Exchange, building on a product that first debuted in Germany nearly a year ago.
The 1Valour Bitcoin Physical Staking (1VBS) ETP offers professional and institutional investors exposure to bitcoin with an additional 1.4% annual staking yield. Each share is backed 1:1 by bitcoin stored in cold wallets by Copper, with staking rewards added to the daily net asset value (NAV).
Shares of DeFi Technologies fell 3.12% to $2.63 in early Nasdaq trading. Access to the ETP is currently limited to professional investors, while retail investors will be able to trade crypto exchange-traded notes (ETNs) on platforms like the LSE starting October 8 under FCA rules.
