BTCE
Bitwise Physical Bitcoin ETP
One of the oldest and most heavily traded crypto ETPs in Europe, physically backed by Bitcoin held in cold storage. The 2% annual fee sits at the high end of the category and the price of Bitcoin moves with extreme volatility.
Note: this product is an ETP, not a UCITS ETF. The UCITS framework requires diversification, so a product tracking a single crypto asset cannot be an ETF. It is a debt security collateralised by the crypto assets themselves, without the protection UCITS provides. Volatility is very high.
