About Bitcoin Capital
Bitcoin Capital AG is a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) based in Zug, Switzerland. The purpose of the company is to issue ETPs listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, on the Börse Stuttgart, on the Vienna Stock Exchange, and expecting on other European exchanges.
Exchanged Traded Products are collateralized, non-interest paying debt securities designed to replicate the performance of the underlying assets. ETPs trade on exchanges similar to stocks meaning their prices can fluctuate intraday. ETPs are structured and operate very similarly to traditional Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). However, contrary to ETFs, ETPs are debt securities issued by a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV).
Yes, Bitcoin Capital AG also sees itself as a platform to support partners in launching their own tailor-made exchange listed crypto ETPs from A to Z.
No. The rules on which crypto assets can be used depend on local regulators and must be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Most, if not all, crypto ETPs available on markets are passive products that track an index or a single underlying. An Actively managed ETP is an innovative product. The asset manager continuously risk manages it and discretionarily trades the underlying, implementing its investment strategy in an effort to generate alpha over the benchmark.
You can trade Bitcoin Capital AG ETPs as simply as trading stock through your own bank account or any brokerage firm with access to SIX Swiss Exchange, Börse Stuttgart, or to Vienna Stock Exchange using an ISIN, Valor, WKN, or ticker.
FiCAS AG is the parent company of Bitcoin Capital AG. Bitcoin Capital is the Issuer of the ETPs and responsible for the obligations of the issue and for reporting financial conditions, material developments and operational activities. FiCAS AG is a specialized crypto investment management boutique.
