Valour launches listed products backed by Bitcoin and Ethereum in the United Kingdom

DeFi Technologies’ Valour subsidiary has achieved a significant milestone by obtaining approval to list exchange-traded products on the UK market. This approval marks a major step forward in expanding digital asset investment solutions in Europe.

Regulatory Approval for New Exchange-Traded Products

Valour has received permissions from both the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the London Stock Exchange (LSE) to offer its exchange-traded products to retail investors. This dual approval reflects the rigorous regulatory environment surrounding these financial instruments in developed jurisdictions.

The recognition by UK regulators validates the structure and security of the exchange-traded products developed by the company, allowing a broader audience to access investments directly backed by cryptocurrencies.

Details of Available Exchange-Traded Products

Starting at the end of January 2026, Valour will offer two specific exchange-traded products on the LSE. The first is Valour Bitcoin Physical Staking (ISIN: GB00BRBV3124), which allows investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin with staking features. The second is Valour Ethereum Physical Staking (ISIN: GB00BRBMZ190), offering a similar proposition for Ethereum.

Both exchange-traded products are distinguished by their physical staking model, which potentially generates additional yields for holders while maintaining direct exposure to these assets.

Expanded Access for Retail Investors

This initiative democratizes access to cryptocurrency-backed exchange-traded products within the UK regulatory ecosystem. Retail investors can now access instruments listed on one of the world’s most prestigious exchanges, without needing to operate on traditional cryptocurrency platforms.

The approval marks a shift in institutional perception of digital exchange-traded products, positioning them as legitimate and secure investment vehicles in developed markets.
