Valour, a European asset management firm, has introduced four new cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) on Germany's Börse Frankfurt exchange.
These ETPs—Valour Dogecoin (DOGE) EUR ETP, Valour Aptos (APT) EUR ETP, Valour Sui (SUI) EUR ETP, and Valour Render (RENDER) EUR ETP—offer institutional and retail investors regulated access to Dogecoin, Aptos, Sui, and Render. Dogecoin is a well-known memecoin; Aptos and Sui are native tokens of Layer-1 blockchain projects; and Render is the native token of the Render Network, a decentralized GPU-based rendering platform. The Dogecoin ETP has a 1.9% management fee; fees for the other products are not yet publicly disclosed.
This launch expands Valour's presence in Europe's digital asset investment market, addressing the growing demand for regulated crypto products. CEO Olivier Roussy Newton stated:
“These new listings highlight our commitment to providing innovative and accessible digital asset investment solutions to the European market. By offering secure and transparent exposure to some of the most promising protocols, we continue to drive digital asset adoption.”
Valour has been a leader in connecting crypto and traditional finance. In 2023, the firm launched two innovative physically backed digital asset products: the 1Valour Bitcoin Physical Carbon Neutral ETP in June and the Valour Ethereum Physical Staking ETP in August.
This expansion follows Valour's successful launch of 20 ETPs on Nordic exchanges in December 2024, bringing their total number of ETPs across European exchanges to over 64.
This move reflects the increasing institutional interest in digital assets across Europe. For example, Swedish-regulated crypto asset manager Virtune recently launched five cryptocurrency ETPs on Nasdaq Helsinki—the first such offerings in Finland—providing secure, regulated crypto investment options. Virtune CEO Christopher Kock noted that this launch is a step towards making crypto a mainstream asset class.
