Trading on Regulated Exchanges

Buying and selling our ETCs on exchange takes place through your brokerage account in the same way you would buy or sell conventional shares or ETFs. No need to manage any crypto-wallet, simply search for our product codes on your broker platform, ask your bank, or get in touch with us for more information.

High Regulation Standards

Authorised Participants (APs) provide liquidity on exchange and use the creation/redemption mechanism with the Issuer. These APs are regulated financial institutions within the EU and EEA, and through their appointment the Issuer ensures that all cryptocurrency that you invest in through the ETCs comes from regulated sources.

Secure Cold-Storage

At all times, the Issuer holds cryptocurrency in secure institutional-grade, cold-storage custody to 100% back the issued ETCs. The independent Administrator was appointed by the Issuer to monitor and sign-off on each transaction. This ensures that no mistakes can happen, and no funds can be misappropirated.
