9 February 2026 | SAINT HELIER, Jersey | CoinShares International Limited ("CoinShares" or "the Group") (Nasdaq Stockholm: CS; US OTCQX: CNSRF), a global leading asset management company and European leader specialising in digital assets with over $8 billion in assets under management, today announced that its Bitcoin ETP (BITC), Ethereum ETP (ETHE), and Solana ETP (SLNC) are now listed on Borsa Italiana, part of ETFplus professional segment, following the exchange's approval of crypto ETP listings on 6 February 2026. The products are available to professional and qualified investors in Italy.
The listing marks a significant endorsement by Borsa Italiana and reflects the progressive stance of Italy's financial regulator, Consob, towards regulated digital asset investment products. Italy represents one of Europe's largest wealth management markets, with substantial institutional capital seeking compliant access to digital assets through familiar investment structures.
This development follows a series of regulatory milestones being reached across Europe in relation to exchange traded digital asset products, including the United Kingdom's lifting of its retail crypto ETN restrictions in October 2025, France's easing of retail crypto marketing rules in December 2025, and the adoption of CoinShares products by major European financial institutions. The Italian listing demonstrates continued momentum in Europe's systematic opening to regulated crypto ETP distribution.
Matteo Stivanello, Associate Director for the Italian Market at CoinShares, stated: "We are seeing strong appetite from institutional investors in Italy for digital asset exposure through regulated, familiar wrappers like ETPs, and this goes beyond just Bitcoin, investors are now perceiving Ethereum and Solana as complementary digital assets in their portfolios. The approval by Borsa Italiana validates the demand we have observed and provides professional investors with the institutional-grade access they require. CoinShares' decade of experience and robust infrastructure positions us well to serve this market."
Jean-Marie Mognetti, CEO and Co-Founder of CoinShares, commented: "The Italian listing is further evidence that Europe is progressively unlocking access to digital asset investment products. Country by country, regulator by regulator, the infrastructure for institutional crypto allocation is being built. CoinShares has been preparing for this moment since we launched the world's first Bitcoin ETP in 2015, and we are well positioned to serve investors across every European market as they open."
