Valour Inc., the digital asset wing of DeFi Technologies, is keeping up the momentum. The company just rolled out two fresh ETPs — one for Litecoin (LTC) and another for Curve DAO (CRV) — on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market. With this move, Valour now has over 65 crypto investment products live, inching closer to its big 2025 goal: hitting 100 ETPs.
The new listings are part of a broader plan to simplify crypto investing. Both ETPs are priced in Swedish Krona and come with a 1.9% management fee. And the best part? You don’t need a crypto wallet or worry about private keys — they trade just like regular stocks.
Why Curve and Litecoin?
Curve DAO isn’t just another DeFi token. It’s the backbone of stablecoin trading across DeFi, known for its deep liquidity and minimal slippage. If you’ve used DeFi protocols, chances are you’ve already tapped into Curve without even realizing it. CRV, its native token, plays a big role in governance and rewards. With a market cap close to $940 million, it’s a solid pick for this kind of listing.
Litecoin, on the other hand, is a name most crypto folks recognize. Launched in 2011, it’s often called Bitcoin’s little sibling. It’s fast, it’s cheap, and it’s stuck around longer than most altcoins. With a market cap above $6.6 billion, it’s still relevant, especially for investors who prefer battle-tested assets.
By bringing these two to a regulated trading venue, Valour is giving traditional investors an easy way to get exposure, without diving into crypto exchanges or private wallets.
Johanna Belitz, Head of Nordics at Valour, said these listings cater directly to the region’s evolving investor appetite. “Nordic investors are increasingly seeking regulated and transparent ways to access the digital asset market. The region has a mature and engaged trading community that’s now looking beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum toward altcoins with strong use cases,” she said.
A Glimpse at What’s Coming
Valour isn’t stopping here. It has a packed pipeline of upcoming products — both single-asset and thematic baskets — set to roll out throughout 2025.
A bunch of fresh single-asset ETPs are coming up next on Valour’s radar. Tron (TRX) is on the list, known for powering dApps with speed and scale. Stellar (XLM) is also coming, doubling down on its mission to make cross-border payments feel like local transfers.
Then there’s MANTRA (OM) and Move (MOVE), both of which will be offered in SEK and EUR — a nod to Valour’s expanding investor base across Europe. But it’s not just about individual tokens anymore. Valour is also building themed baskets for investors who want diversified exposure in a single click.
One of them is the Real-World Asset (RWA) & Tokenization Basket, combining tokens that bridge blockchain and the real economy — think Mantra, Ondo, Paxos Gold, Centrifuge, and Polymesh. Then there’s the Digital Gold Basket, which mixes Bitcoin, Paxos Gold (PAXG), and Tether Gold (XAUt) — essentially a modern hedge in one product.
The Institutional Layer-1 Basket is also in the works, pulling together names like Avalanche, Algorand, Hedera, and Polkadot — all focused on scalability and enterprise-grade infrastructure.
For the more adventurous crowd, Valour is preparing leveraged crypto ETPs — kicking things off with 2x exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Not for the faint of heart, but perfect for those looking to dial things up.
And this isn’t just a Sweden story. Valour’s already eyeing new listings in Germany via Börse Frankfurt, and on Euronext as well. Plus, the company has its sights set beyond Europe, with expansion plans stretching across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Wherever the demand for clean, easy crypto access grows, Valour wants to be there.
Elaine Buehler, Head of Products at Valour, said the team is focused on pairing investor demand with fundamentally strong digital assets. “When developing new ETPs, we look closely at assets that combine strong market fundamentals with real-world utility,” Buehler said.
