To χρηματιστήριο του Γιβραλτάρ προσθέτει το BitcoinETI προς διαπραγμάτευση
Το χρηματιστήριο του Γιβραλτάρ (GSX) πήρε την έγκριση ώστε να γίνει η πρώτη Ευρωπαϊκή χρηματιστηριακή αγορά που θα προσφέρει ένα επενδυτικό προϊόν βασισμένο στην ισοτιμία του Bitcoin με την διαπραγμάτευση του να ξεκινάει μέσα στις επόμενες μέρες ενώ όπως αναφέρει και το Bitcoin.com ακολουθεί και η διαπραγμάτευση του ίδιου επενδυτικού προϊόντος και στο χρηματιστήριο της Φρανκφούρτης Germany’s Deutsche Börse.
Την έναρξη της διαπραγμάτευσης χαιρέτησε ο αρμόδιος υπουργός του Γιβραλτάρ Albert Isola
“We continue to work with the private sector and our Regulator on an appropriate regulatory environment for operators in the digital currency space and the launch of this ETI on our stock exchange demonstrates our ability to be innovative and deliver speed to market.
I am delighted to welcome BitcoinETI to Gibraltar and congratulate GSX and Argentarius on this initiative.”
Διαχειριστής του χρηματιστηριακού προϊόντος είναι ο όμιλος επενδύσεων του Γιβραλτάρ iStructure PCC PLC
Gibraltar Stock Exchange welcomes BitcoinETΙ
The Gibraltar Stock Exchange welcomes BitcoinETI (ticker: BTCETI), an asset-backed Exchange Traded Instrument that is invested exclusively in bitcoin, making it the first European regulated product for the leading digital currency.
The Bitcoin Exchange Traded Instrument (ETI) was approved for admission to listing on GSX on 22-Jul-2015 and will be co-listed on Deutsche Börse this week under the symbol “BTCETI”.
Gibraltar Stock Exchange Partnership Model
“GSX is an EU regulated market which offers efficient and cost effective solutions for innovative companies and financial products. We look forward to supporting the BitcoinETI in its entry to the public markets” said Nick Cowan, Managing Director of the Gibraltar Stock Exchange.
BitcoinETI is issued by iStructure PCC PLC, a Gibraltar based company. The issue is the result of a close partnership between a number of stakeholders in Gibraltar including Argentarius ETI Management Limited (Listing Member of GSX and securitisation specialist), Gibraltar based FinTech specialists Revoltura Limited (an iStructure PCC PLC subsidiary), the Government of Gibraltar, and the Financial Services Commission (Gibraltar’s regulator).
“By listing the ETI on the Gibraltar Stock Exchange, which is an EU regulated market, we are able to bring a high-level of transparency and liquidity to investors. BitcoinETI is available through regulated brokerage firms across Europe and settlements are handled through Clearstream/Euroclear, just like any other securities” says Ransu Salovaara, CEO of Revoltura (Revoltura.com).
Bitcoin
Bitcoin is an electronic, internet-based “cryptocurrency”. Bitcoin transactions are grouped together and verified in a series of “blocks” called a “blockchain”. The bitcoin blockchain is open for anyone to read and, for even extreme practical purposes, impossible to alter.
