Valour Inc. Expands Its Exchange-Traded Product (ETP) Line with Two New Listings on the Spotlight Stock Market in Sweden

TORONTO, May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DeFi Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “DeFi Technologies”) (CBOE CA: DEFI) (GR: R9B) (OTC: DEFTF), a financial technology company that focuses on the convergence of traditional capital markets with the world of decentralised finance (“DeFi”), is pleased to announces that its subsidiary Valour Inc. ("Valour"), a leading issuer of exchange-traded products ("ETPs") providing simplified access to digital assets, has launched two new ETPs on the Spotlight Stock Market in Sweden: the Valour Curve DAO (CRV) SEK ETP (ISIN: CH1108679064) and the Valour Litecoin (LTC) SEK ETP (ISIN: CH1108679072).

These new listings expand Valour’s presence in the Nordics and reinforce its mission to offer regulated, easy-to-access digital asset investment products globally.

Valour Curve DAO (CRV) ETP

Curve is a decentralized exchange (“DEX”) tailored for stablecoin and low-slippage trading. The CRV token governs the Curve DAO and plays a central role in DeFi infrastructure through liquidity provisioning, governance, and incentive mechanisms. The CRV ETP provides straightforward exposure to this protocol without the complexities of self-custody. Curve (CRV) currently holds a market capitalization of $940 million, placing it among the top 75 digital assets globally.

Valour Litecoin (LTC) ETP

Litecoin is one of the longest-standing cryptocurrencies and a foundational layer-1 blockchain. Known for its fast settlement times and low transaction costs, it has long been considered the “digital silver” complement to Bitcoin. The LTC ETP offers investors direct access to Litecoin through a secure, exchange-traded structure. Litecoin (LTC) has a market capitalization of $6.6 billion, ranking it among the top 25 digital assets worldwide.

Each product carries a 1.9% management fee and provides seamless access through traditional brokerage accounts.

Johanna Belitz, Head of Nordics at Valour, commented:

"Nordic investors are increasingly seeking regulated and transparent ways to access the digital asset market. The region has a mature and engaged trading community that’s now looking beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum toward altcoins with strong use cases. By launching ETPs on Curve and Litecoin on the Spotlight Stock Market, we’re meeting that demand and expanding access to a broader range of digital assets. These additions reflect our commitment to leading in product innovation and staying responsive to investor needs."

Elaine Buehler, Head of Products, added:

"When developing new ETPs, we look closely at assets that combine strong market fundamentals with real-world utility. Curve and Litecoin both meet those criteria — one driving innovation in decentralized finance, the other proving itself over a decade as a fast and efficient payment network. These ETPs are built to give investors simple, regulated access to these assets through platforms they already trust, aligning with Valour's goal of removing complexity from digital asset investing."

With these new additions, Valour now offers over 65 unique digital asset ETPs—the most comprehensive lineup of its kind globally. This expansion marks continued progress toward Valour’s strategic goal of launching 100 ETPs by the end of 2025, with product rollouts planned not only across existing European exchanges like Spotlight, Börse Frankfurt, and Euronext but also in upcoming jurisdictions across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.

Upcoming Product Releases

Valour continues to advance its mission to provide secure, regulated, and diversified digital asset exposure through traditional financial infrastructure. As part of its strategic roadmap to launch 100 ETPs by the end of 2025, the company is actively developing a range of new offerings, including:

Planned Single-Asset ETPs

Thematic Basket ETPs in Development

Leveraged ETPs

Continued Product Innovation

In addition to these forthcoming launches, Valour is actively progressing on additional products across a wide range of digital assets. This continued innovation underscores Valour’s position as a leader in the European digital asset ETP market and further accelerates its progress toward the 100-ETP milestone by year-end.
