Crypto’s New Playground? 🥳

by

Oh, the sheer audacity! It appears someone is attempting to civilize the wild, untamed frontier of cryptocurrency. 21shares, those valiant champions of order, are now gracing the Nasdaq Stockholm with their presence. One shudders to think what the natives will make of it all. But, naturally, it’s all about “broadening investor reach” and “strengthening trusted market infrastructure.” How very… commendable.

21shares Brings Order to Stockholm (and Nordic Investors)

It seems a rather large number of rather serious people – those “institutional investors,” you know, the ones with actual money – have developed a curious fascination with these digital baubles. 21shares, being ever so accommodating, has decided to list six more of its “products” on the Nasdaq Stockholm. Because, truly, is there anything quite as thrilling as more options? 🙄

Alistair Byas Perry, a gentleman with a title longer than most sentences, declared:

“We continue to see strong demand from Nordic investors seeking diversified, cost-efficient access to digital assets through regulated exchanges.”

He further elaborated (one assumes with a perfectly straight face) that this expansion provides a “broader toolkit” and allows investors to “tailor their digital asset exposure.” One can practically smell the spreadsheets. Frankly, the notion of tailoring one’s crypto exposure seems rather like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic, but who am I to judge?

With this generous offering, 21shares now boasts a staggering 16 ETPs on Nasdaq Stockholm. Imagine, 16! All “100% physically backed and fully collateralized,” naturally. Because one wouldn’t want to leave anything to chance, would one? It’s all so reassuringly… dull.

The latest additions – the 21shares Aave ETP (AAVE), the 21shares Crypto Basket Index ETP (HODL-a rather unsophisticated name, don’t you think?), 21shares Cardano ETP (AADA), 21shares Chainlink ETP (LINK), 21shares Polkadot ETP (ADOT), and 21shares Crypto Basket 10 Core ETP (HODLX) – join the already impressive ranks of the 21shares Bitcoin ETP (ABTC), 21shares Ethereum Staking ETP (AETH), 21shares Solana ETP (ASOL), and 21shares Bitcoin Core ETP (CBTC). A veritable cornucopia of cryptographic delights! 🥂

Across the Continent, 21shares’ influence extends to SIX Swiss Exchange, Euronext Paris, Euronext Amsterdam, Deutsche Börse Xetra, and the London Stock Exchange. With a cool $8 billion under management-a sum one can only dream of-the firm continues to expand its reach. Some pessimists predict chaos when the average investor gets involved, but proponents insist it’s all perfectly safe and transparent. One sincerely hopes they’re right.
