LSE Lists Valour’s Bitcoin Staking ETP as Firm Moves Beyond Mainland Europe

Valour Expands Bitcoin Staking ETP to London Investors

DeFi Technologies’ subsidiary Valour has listed its 1Valour Bitcoin Physical Staking (1VBS) ETP on the London Stock Exchange, providing professional and institutional investors exposure to bitcoin with an additional 1.4% annual staking yield.

The ETP, which launched on Germany’s Xetra in November 2024, is fully backed 1:1 by bitcoin held in cold storage by Copper. Staking rewards are incorporated into the daily net asset value (NAV), along with entitlements and indicative prices.

Under U.K. rules, the London-listed ETP is restricted to professional investors, while retail participants can access crypto ETNs from October 8. DeFi Technologies shares fell 3.12% to $2.63 in early Nasdaq trading.
