Crypto asset management firm Coinshares has rebranded its Nordic ETP brand XBT Provider to “CoinShares XBT Provider” and is preparing to expand in the second half of 2024.

Back in May 2015, Sweden’s XBT Provider AB announced the authorization of Bitcoin Tracker One, the first Bitcoin-based security available on a regulated exchange.

In October of the same year, it launched Euro-denominated Bitcoin-based security, Bitcoin Tracker EUR, available through Nasdaq Nordic, as reported in Bitcoin Magazine.

Coinshares acquired XBT Provider in 2017.

In a Jan 12 announcement, the company disclosed the move, and its reasons, the prospects to expand in the U.S. market, and projected growth.

Coinshares said it has which also saw the firm complete its acquisition of Valkyrie Funds in the U.S, significantly boosting its global market presence and expanding its operational footprint across the Atlantic.

“This rebrand is the start of an exciting new chapter for our Nordic operations, reflecting our ongoing commitment to this region and our investors,” said Spiteri.

Last week, Coinshares-backed FlowBank has been declared bankrupt by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).
