ETC Group's new #Bitcoin ETP offers CFB-powered Tri-NAV 📈 CF Benchmarks is proud to support the launch of ETC Group's Core Bitcoin ETP (ticker: BTC1)! All the more so because of its genuinely unique NAV structure.  This enables three windows of institutional liquidity, based on our CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate (BRR), and its New York and Asia Pacific (APAC) variants -- all three of which are regulated by the UK's FCA. It's the first time all three BRR variants have been utilized within one product. Most importantly, this is the first BTC ETP that offers institutional investors a transparent Tri-NAV facility. This extends BTC1's primary market liquidity window beyond European trading hours, by utilising the variants of our tried and trusted Bitcoin methodology tailor-made for the US and APAC. All in, BTC1's Tri-NAV provides investors with unmatched flexibility on when they can trade holdings -- a competitive edge for cost-efficiency, risk management, and more. We're pretty chuffed all this is made possible by our flagship benchmark methodology! Find out more about ETC Group Core Bitcoin ETP (BTC1), and our Bitcoin benchmarks by clicking below.

Sygnum expands its presence in Europe and Asia: a new step towards global expansion in the crypto industry Swiss digital asset banking group Sygnum has taken an important step towards strengthening its position in the European market by obtaining a license from Liechtenstein's financial regulator (FMA). This status allows the company to offer regulated cryptocurrency services across the European Economic Area (EEA), which includes areas such as brokerage, digital asset custody and B2B banking. The move is particularly important in the context of the impending implementation of the new MiCA regulatory framework, which harmonizes rules on digital assets across the EU and EEA. MiCA is expected to come into force by 2025 and Sygnum, using its Liechtenstein license, will be able to serve clients in all 30 markets falling under this regulatory framework. In addition to its European operations, Sygnum is also actively developing its services in Asia. The company plans to expand its operations in Hong Kong and strengthen its position through its platform in Singapore. This strategic approach allows Sygnum to strengthen its global presence by building a strong position in both Europe and Asia

💡 SNB Update: Key Insights on Crypto, Constitution, Inflation, and Profitability. ❌ Crypto Caution: SNB President Thomas Jordan remains skeptical about investing in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, citing the need for liquidity and stability in reserves. 📣 Constitutional Campaign: Swiss activists are pushing for a constitutional amendment to compel the SNB to hold Bitcoin alongside gold in its reserves. If successful, a national vote could be triggered, potentially reshaping the SNB's investment strategy and sparking broader discussions on the role of cryptocurrencies in central bank reserves. ⚡ Inflation Warnings: Thomas Jordan warns of potential inflation shocks, highlighting the ongoing global uncertainty and the need for vigilant monetary policy adjustments. Despite Switzerland's strong record on inflation, Jordan cautions that new shocks could occur at any time, necessitating close monitoring and potential policy adjustments. 🪙 Profitability Return: The SNB reports a record-breaking first-quarter profit of 58.8 billion francs, driven by the weakness of the Swiss franc. This upswing could help rebuild the central bank's capital base after two years of canceled payouts due to record losses. SNB Vice President Martin Schlegel emphasizes the priority of capital rebuilding over profit distributions, emphasizing the central bank's mandate to ensure price stability. 🕵️ Stay informed with Imperial Wealth Planning! #IWP #news #finances Source: Reports from the Swiss National Bank and Bloomberg
