Key Highlights

  • 21Shares launched the STRC ETN on the London Stock Exchange, giving investors Bitcoin exposure plus monthly income.
  • The product is linked to “Stretch,” a Strategy Inc. asset backed by large Bitcoin reserves, about 815,061 BTC in holding. 
  • 21Shares already holds about 42% of the UK crypto ETN market.

21Shares, a company that manages investments, has launched a new investment product called the 21Shares Strategy Yield ETN (ticker symbol: STRC) on the London Stock Exchange today.

This financial product lets investors benefit from Bitcoin’s price changes and earn income at the same time. It’s traded like a regular stock on standard brokerage accounts, so you don’t need to actually own Bitcoin to invest in it.

How the product works

The ETN is priced in British pounds (GBP) and has no management fees, so investors won’t be charged for holding it. The company notes that this fund stands out because it doesn’t simply track Bitcoin’s price.

Instead, it’s tied to an investment called “Stretch,” created by Strategy Inc. This investment’s value is based on Strategy’s practice of keeping a significant portion of its funds in Bitcoin.

This system uses Bitcoin to provide regular payments to investors. This creates a way to earn additional income on top of potential gains from Bitcoin’s price increase – essentially, investors can earn while they wait for Bitcoin to potentially grow in value.

Monthly income with adjustable rates

You’ll receive payments from this product each month, and the amount can fluctuate. Since its launch, these payments have been made reliably. The payment rate is checked monthly and is tied to short-term interest rates, ensuring it reflects current market conditions. The system is also designed to keep the payment amount near a starting value of $100.

Strategy is the world’s biggest company when it comes to holding Bitcoin. By the end of April 2026, they owned 815,061 Bitcoins, which makes up around 3.88% of all Bitcoins in existence.

Expanding presence in the UK

21Shares initially launched its exchange-traded note (ETN) in Amsterdam before making it available in the UK, expanding its reach in the British market. The company is already a significant player on the London Stock Exchange, controlling around 42% of the crypto ETN market with daily trading volumes of £7.3 million as of late April 2026.

The company announced that the new product will broaden its services in the area by focusing on generating income for customers, instead of just tracking price changes.

Duncan Moir, President of 21Shares, explains that this launch offers UK investors a new way to grow their money. He says they’ve created an investment product that’s both easy to use and has the potential for high returns, all within a standard exchange-traded format.

He explained that the product is designed to help U.K. investors earn consistent income from their investments.
