Bitcoin ETFs were the talk of the town during the bear market, with multiple companies applying to issue one only to get turned down by regulators over and over again.
Many Bitcoin investors have been awaiting such an exchange-traded product to be launched in order to give institutions an easy and straightforward method to gain exposure to the asset; hoping it would boost demand and price.
Deutsche Börse
In an announcement today, the first Bitcoin derivative to be processed by the European derivatives exchange: Eurex Clearing is due to launch next week.
Although this will be an “exchange-traded” derivative it is not an ETF (exchange-traded fund) but rather an exchange-traded bearer bond which will be 100% backed by digital Bitcoins held in the custody of the licensed BitGo Trust.
The shares will be issued by the London-based ETC group and they already have a name for it: “BTCE”. Ironically and in an unrelated manner, that is very similar to the name of a now defunct Bitcoin exchange BTC-e (2011-2015).
BTCE vs ETF
The exchange-traded product has already been approved by the German financial regulator ‘BaFin’ and will lower the barrier of entry to BTC for investors who have been stopped because of technical difficulties (private keys, storage, etc.).
The cost of this product will run investors much higher than the typical 0.1%-0.6% ETF annual fee as the expense ratio is at 2%.Bradley Duke, CEO of ETC Group, said, “The crypto sector has been held back by concerns about complexity, accessibility and governance. With BTCE, we are transporting bitcoin into the fold of mainstream, regulated financial markets. Investors get the benefits of trading and owning bitcoin through a regulated security while having the optionality of redeeming bitcoin if they choose”.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?
We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
