EXCHANGE TRADED CRYPTO – ACCESS TO CRYPTOCURRENCIES THROUGH REGULATED SECURITIES EXCHANGES

 


What are ETCs?

Exchange Traded Products (ETPs) are passively managed securities that can be traded on regulated stock exchanges such as Deutsche Börse XETRA.

A subcategory of ETPs are ETCs, short for Exchange Traded Commodities or Cryptocurrencies.

ETCs represent a commodity such as oil, wood, coffee, or a precious metal such as gold and silver, or cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana.

As with the most well-known sub-category of ETPs, ETFs (short for Exchange Traded Funds), ETCs passively track the price performance of the underlying assets to which they refer. They are debt instruments that represent a direct investment by the issuer in the commodity itself. ETCs must therefore be backed by physical gold, oil, wood or cryptocurrencies. ETC Shares can be purchased on the stock exchange just like ETFs or shares. Shareholders own an interest in the ETCs, but not the underlying commodities themselves. For each issued share, a predefined amount of cryptocurrency is deposited with a specialized and regulated custodian.


What are the benefits of ETCs?

Trade on stock exchanges, just as easy as stocks

ETC Group ETCs have a German ISIN and WKN

Regulated Financial Product

Transparent management and trading fees

No blockchain wallet required

The special feature of exchange-traded cryptocurrencies is already in the name itself: they are exchange-traded financial products with which investors can invest in the performance of cryptocurrencies.

How can I buy ETCs?

Crypto ETPs can be purchased, for example, from online brokers or banks on the respective stock exchange. The purchase then works in a similar way to that of an ETF or a share: the investor first needs a securities account. He can then select and purchase the appropriate product using the International Securities Identification Number, ISIN for short, or the Securities Identification Number (WKN). Boerse Stuttgart has a good guide for investors on its website.


With some securities brokers, in addition to the "simple" purchase, there is also the possibility of setting up crypto savings plans in order to build up long-term assets through regular contributions.


After purchasing a crypto ETP, it is kept securely in the bank depot and is physically deposited with the corresponding crypto currency. This eliminates the need for independent custody in your own wallet, which is often associated with a lot of effort and time for new investors without previous knowledge.


ETC Group products

As a young company, ETC Group launched the world's first central clearing Bitcoin ETP, listed on Deutsche Boerse XETRA, Europe's largest ETF trading exchange. The ETC Group is today Europe's leading provider of innovative cryptocurrency-based securities. At the ETC Group, investors can currently choose from 14 different ETCs with a German ISIN and securities identification number, WKN for short, in order to be able to participate in the price development of Bitcoin and other popular cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, ETC Group's crypto assets are fully secured against issuer default risk thanks to an independent trustee.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
