Zerocap Unveils Australia’s First Crypto Structured Product Tied to CoinDesk 20 Index

HONG KONG – Zerocap, a leading Australian digital asset market maker, has partnered with CoinDesk Indices to introduce Australia’s first structured crypto investment product linked to the CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20). Announced at Consensus Hong Kong, this marks a significant development for institutional crypto investment in the region.

The new product brings options-based structured strategies, commonly seen in traditional finance, into the crypto space. Designed for institutional investors and sophisticated traders, it offers diversified exposure to top digital assets beyond just bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH). The structure incorporates risk management tools, downside protection, and yield enhancement, catering to investors seeking more scalable and tailored cryptocurrency exposure.

The launch reflects the growing appetite for institutional-grade crypto products, particularly after the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. last year. The CoinDesk 20 Index, which has gained 456% over five years, provides a broader market representation, expanding beyond the traditional 70/30 BTC-ETH portfolio mix.

“Our partnership with CoinDesk Indices brings sophisticated investment tools to the crypto space, enabling investors to manage risk and optimize returns with structured exposure,” said Mark Hiriart, Head of Sales at Zerocap.

Alan Campbell, President of CoinDesk Indices, noted that the CD20 Index is designed to meet the rising demand for diversified digital asset investments. He described Zerocap’s move to introduce structured products based on the index as a key innovation for global investors.

With this latest offering, Zerocap continues to bridge the gap between institutional finance and digital assets, setting a new benchmark for structured crypto investment solutions in Australia and beyond.
