About Solana
Solana is a high-performance blockchain platform designed to offer fast and scalable decentralized application operations and cryptocurrency transactions. By using a unique consensus mechanism known as Proof of History (PoH) along with Proof of Stake (PoS), Solana can handle thousands of transactions per second with low transaction costs, which is a significant improvement over older blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum. This combination of technologies not only allows for instant transaction verification but also a significant increase in network throughput without compromising security or decentralization.

Christopher Kock, CEO of Virtune: 
“After an intense and successful 10-month journey since our initial listing, during which we launched 7 crypto ETPs before today on Nasdaq Stockholm and Boerse Stuttgart, we have dedicated ourselves to developing these innovative ETPs that many have eagerly anticipated. We are thrilled to unveil these ETPs, long-awaited by the Nordic market, where we can distribute staking rewards to investors through our physically backed structure. By staking Solana and Polygon directly from cold storage at our custodian, Coinbase, we are able to share the staking rewards with the ETPs and its investors. This launch marks a significant milestone in expanding our crypto ETP offering in response to the growing demand from the Nordic investor community. Investors now have the convenience of effortlessly managing these investments through their traditional brokerage accounts.

Virtune Staked Solana ETP and Virtune Staked Polygon ETP offer investors an easy, transparent and secure way to gain exposure to staked Solana and staked Polygon respectively through a regulated structure listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, reinforced by the support of industry-leading service providers.”

These ETPs cater to institutional investors as well as retail investors, serving the growing demand from investors in the Nordics that have been waiting for a seamless way to gain exposure to Solana and Staked combined with the benefits of staking.
