Virtune Crypto Altcoin Index ETP

The product follows a rule-based investment strategy and is rebalanced on a monthly basis. The allocation of each crypto asset is equally weighted, ensuring balanced exposure across all assets. Since the product is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, only crypto assets that are part of the Nasdaq Crypto Index Europe may be included.

The Virtune Crypto Altcoin Index ETP follows an index with a rule-based investment strategy (Virtune Vinter Crypto Altcoin index) that includes up to 10 leading alternative crypto assets based on market capitalization, excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum. Additional criteria are then applied for each crypto asset, such as not being a stablecoin (a crypto asset whose value is always intended to be the same as a fiat currency, typically the US dollar). The product is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, which means we also need to adhere to the crypto assets included in Nasdaq Crypto Index Europe. In summary, this means that crypto assets need to meet the criteria of two indexes to be included in the product.

Investing in Virtune's ETPs offers several distinct advantages for you as an investor:

Simple and Secure: You avoid the complexity of creating and managing a digital wallet, as well as the challenges of selecting a secure crypto exchange for trading. All aspects of security and storage are handled by us.

Tax Efficiency: Investing in our ETPs can be associated with tax benefits. In Sweden it is possible to invest in our ETPs through an Investment Savings Account (ISK) or a Capital Insurance means you do not need to declare individual transactions. Instead of a 30% capital gains tax on direct crypto trading, you pay an annual fixed tax, which can provide significant tax benefits.

Regulated Trading Venue: Our products are traded on Nasdaq Stockholm, a regulated and secure marketplace, adding an additional layer of safety and reliability to your investment.

Physically Backed Products: All our ETPs are 100% physically backed, meaning that actual crypto assets are stored corresponding to the market value of each ETP, ensuring transparency and trust.

Staking Opportunities: Some of our products also offer staking, which is managed by us and provides extra returns without any effort required from you.

Virtune is a Swedish company based in Stockholm, registered as a financial institution with the Financial Supervisory Authority, with an EU-approved base prospectus for the market listing of crypto ETPs. We strive to be the safe choice for your crypto investments.

All of Virtune's ETPs are always 100% physically backed, this means that we store the equivalent value of all outstanding securities in the underlying crypto asset with our custodian in cold-storage (offline). The crypto assets are segregated from Virtune's own balance sheet and the equivalent value of each ETP in the underlying crypto asset is received and stored at our custodian Coinbase before new ETPs are created.

Our products are priced through a so-called coin entitlement to the underlying crypto assets, which means that 1 ETP represents a certain amount of crypto assets. This structure ensures a 1:1 exposure to the underlying crypto asset with the highest possible investor protection and minimized credit risk towards the issuer (Virtune) of the ETPs.

Our products are priced based on a 1:1 correlation with the performance of the underlying crypto asset, minus a management fee and, for our staking ETPs, plus staking rewards. They are priced through what we refer to as 'coin entitlement' to the underlying crypto assets, meaning that one ETP represents a specific quantity of crypto assets stored with our custodian. For our staking ETPs, staking rewards are continuously added, contributing to an increase in the amount of crypto assets per ETP over time. You can track the daily amount of crypto assets per ETP on each product page. Each crypto asset is priced according to regulated and established crypto asset reference rates.

All of Virtune's ETPs are 100% physically backed by the underlying crypto assets (asset-backed securities), which means that we store the equivalent value of all outstanding securities in the underlying crypto asset with our custodian in cold storage (offline). This reduces the credit risk to Virtune as the issuer and is a safer option for investors compared to investing in tracker certificates that provide synthetic exposure and do not hold the underlying crypto assets as collateral. In such cases, you could theoretically lose your entire investment if an issuer of synthetic tracker certificates goes bankrupt. This is not the case with Virtune's products because the crypto assets stored with Virtune's custodian serve as underlying collateral and are segregated from Virtune's own balance sheet, which protects your investment in Virtune's ETPs.
