Fineqia International Inc. (CSE:FNQ)(OTC:FNQQF) has unveiled the Fineqia Bitcoin Yield Exchange Traded Product (ETP) (Ticker: YBTC, ISIN: LI1444931821), a groundbreaking investment tool that enables investors to grow their Bitcoin holdings through decentralized finance (DeFi) yields. Listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange (Wiener Börse), YBTC targets an annual yield of 6% by leveraging DeFi protocols on the blockchain.
Key Features of YBTC
- Automated Yield Conversion: Converts earnings directly into Bitcoin, increasing investors' BTC holdings without additional capital.
- Regulated Framework: The first exchange-traded product offering BTC yields from DeFi in a compliant structure.
- Dual Audience: Available to both institutional and individual investors.
"YBTC transforms Bitcoin from a store of value into a yield-generating digital asset," said Bundeep Singh Rangar, CEO of Fineqia. "This allows investors to compound their BTC holdings within a regulated environment."
Market Context
- Bitcoin ETPs now manage over $150 billion in global assets (CoinShares Report).
- Traditional crypto ETPs offer passive exposure—YBTC bridges the gap with active yield strategies.
- 89% of institutional investors plan to increase crypto allocations in 2025 (EY Report).
How YBTC Stands Out
- Full BTC Exposure: No capped upside or compromised price participation.
- Transparent Pricing: Daily liquidity and sustainable yields.
- In-Kind Deposits: Existing BTC holders can transfer assets without fees.
The DeFi Advantage
DeFi protocols facilitate revenue-generating activities like:
- Borrowing/lending
- Trading
- Liquidity provisioning
Sector Growth:
- Total Value Locked (TVL): $182B+ (Dec 2024, DeFi Llama).
- Projected DeFi revenue: $542B by 2025 (Statista).
