IDX intros bitcoin, Ethereum trusts

IDX Digital Assets, an asset manager, has introduced trusts for bitcoin and Ethereum to offer risk managed access to cryptocurrency, with the ability to convert to cash, according to a press release.

“The excitement around the rapid development of blockchain technologies, mixed with the realization of accommodative monetary stimulus policies, increasing geo-political tensions, and materializing concerns over inflation growth, all have investors seeking exposure to asset classes such as digital assets, Andrew Swan, co-founder and CEO of IDX, said in the release.

Specifically, investors and advisors are expressing a strong appetite for digital assets exposure, but desire a risk-managed approach that focuses on mitigating the inherent volatility and drawdowns common to the emerging asset class; this is what IDX seeks to provide.”
