Fineqia Issues World’s First Bitcoin Yield ETP via DeFi; Yield Compounds Investors’ BTC Holdings

Fineqia International Inc. (CSE: FNQ) (OTC: FNQQF) (Frankfurt: FNQA), a digital asset and investment business, announces the Fineqia Bitcoin Yield ETP (Ticker: YBTC, ISIN: LI1444931821), the world’s first listed product that enables investors to garner additional Bitcoin while holding it. YBTC targets annual yield of 6%-7% via decentralised finance (DeFi) activities on the blockchain.

YBTC automatically converts this yield into Bitcoin (BTC), increasing an investor’s BTC holdings without requiring any additional capital. Listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange (Wiener Börse), it is the first time a BTC DeFi yield product has been made available as a regulated, exchange-traded instrument for institutional and retail investors.

“With YBTC, we’ve transformed Bitcoin from a store of value into a yield-generating digital asset,” said Bundeep Singh Rangar, chief executive officer of Fineqia. “It allows investors to earn more Bitcoin while they hold it, combining long-term conviction with compounding returns, all inside a regulated wrapper.”

YBTC arrives at a time of increasing investor interest in crypto products. Bitcoin ETPs now account for more than $150 billion in global assets under management. Most of these products, however, offer only passive exposure and are devoid of any yield.

There is increasing demand for innovative products that go beyond simply corresponding to BTC’s price.  Nearly nine out of ten institutional investors plan to increase allocations to ETPs and spot crypto assets in 2025, as per an EY Report.

The ETP is issued by Fineqia AG, the company’s Liechtenstein-based subsidiary. It is advised by Psalion Yield, a blockchain-focused investment firm with deep expertise in DeFi yield. The product offers in-kind investment, allowing Bitcoin holders to transfer their holdings to the ETP without incurring costs.

The Fineqia Bitcoin yield ETP could mark a shift in how investors engage with crypto, blending traditional market infrastructure with DeFi income strategies. BTC joins Fineqia’s expanding portfolio of yield-oriented crypto investment vehicles, including the Fineqia FTSE Cardano Enhanced Yield ETN (Ticker: YADA; ISIN: LI1408648106). Together, these offerings reflect the company’s vision to deliver secure, transparent, and innovative access to digital assets through regulated market infrastructure.
