Stockholm, August 9th, 2023 – Virtune, a Swedish regulated digital asset manager in Sweden is launching a new innovative staking ETP on Nasdaq Stockholm, the largest stock exchange in the Nordic region. Today, Virtune is announcing the introduction of Virtune Staked Ethereum ETP SEK, providing exposure to Ethereum combined with the benefits of staking.
The ETP which is 100% physically backed and fully collateralized is denominated in SEK for the Swedish audience and is available on Avanza and Nordnet. By including staking, this ETP provides investors with up to 5% in additional annual return on their ETP Ethereum investment.
Ethereum is currently the second largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of about $219 billion and the world’s leading smart contract platform which can revolutionize the way we interact with technology and finance. With its robust ecosystem, Ethereum enables developers to build decentralized applications (dApps) that can reshape industries, eliminate middlemen, and bring greater transparency and efficiency to global systems. By engaging in Ethereum staking, you actively support the blockchain network and promote its decentralized nature.
This product caters to institutional investors as well as retail investors, serving the many people who support Ethereum already to improve and enhance their Ethereum investment even further. Virtune uses non-custodial staking meaning that the assets are being staked directly from cold storage, therefore there is no need to transfer the asset to any third party which is associated with risk.
Key Information about the product:
- 1:1 exposure to Ethereum combined with staking providing up to 5% additional annual return
