Valour Launches Zcash ETP on Spotlight Stock Market
Investors can now gain exposure to Zcash through a regulated exchange-traded product, as Valour Inc. adds the ZEC-linked instrument to its platform. Trading of the new vehicle, which bypasses the technical hurdles of direct wallet management, commenced on September 29 on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market.
The product, listed under ISIN CH1108681763, allows market participants to track the price performance of Zcash using standard brokerage accounts. By offering this access, Valour aims to simplify entry into the privacy-focused network, which utilizes zero-knowledge proof technology—specifically zk-SNARKs—to validate transactions while obscuring sensitive data.
Johan Wattenström, CEO of parent company DeFi Technologies, noted that the launch addresses growing demand for privacy-preserving blockchain infrastructure. The ETP carries a 1.9% management fee and expands Valour’s existing catalog of over 100 digital asset products. Jacob Lindberg, Chief Revenue Officer at Valour, added that the firm witnessed rising interest from Nordic retail and professional investors seeking a familiar, regulated path to ZEC without the need to store underlying assets directly.
