Valour Expands Europe’s Crypto Market With Pi Network and Seven New ETPs

According to a company blog post, the new Pi ETP gives investors regulated, exchange-traded exposure to the Pi Network token through traditional brokerage accounts. The products have a 1.9% management fee and will trade in Swedish kronor. Therefore, mainstream investors across Europe can access it easily.

Valour Pi (PI) ETP performed well on its first day. At opening, the product closed at 33.32 SEK or 1.06% higher than the day before.

The ETP chart indicates that it briefly exceeded 34 SEK before retracing to its current price. This positive change demonstrates that investors are keenly interested in Pi as it becomes available on regulated financial markets.

Valour already has a wide range of crypto ETPs already available with over 85 in Europe. Alongside Pi Network, Valour introduced ETPs for Shiba Inu, Ondo, Cronos, Mantle, VeChain, Ethena, and Celestia, all of which represent different areas of blockchain growth.

Johanna Belitz, Head of Nordics at Valour, said demand for transparent and simple access to digital assets continues to grow. She emphasized that the new products meet investor appetite for diversified coverage across major blockchains and ecosystems.

Commenting on the launch, the Head of Product at Valour, Elaine Buehler, said the Pi Network ETP launch would help the company strike the balance between core infrastructure and emerging trends like modular blockchains and tokenized yields. Nadine Kenzelmann, Managing Director at Valour, added that the company aims to maintain institutional standards while rapidly expanding its lineup.

The expansion cements Valour’s reputation as one of the most aggressive players in Europe’s regulated digital-asset market. The company currently has products listed in Spotlight Stock Market, Borsen Frankfurt, the Swiss Exchange, and Euronext. This Pi ETP launch demonstrates the firm’s intention to list a token with a lot of community interest.

That community and institutional interest is underscored by venture firms as well. For example, Ulu Ventures recently listed Pi Network among its portfolio companies, highlighting confidence in its long-term ecosystem potential.

The parent company of Valour is currently listed on Nasdaq under the DEFT ticker. It has identified itself as an intermediary between the traditional market and decentralized finance ventures. It combines asset management, research, brokerage, and other quantitative strategies.

ETP Debut Reflects Increasing Demand Regulated Community Tokens in Europe

The aim of Pi Network is to expand cryptocurrency accessibility by developing a mobile-first environment based on its native token. The listing on Valour means that European investors can invest in Pi using a regulated structure for the first time. It also illustrates how large asset managers are showing interest in coins that traditional investors would never consider previously.

Following this development, Pi Network has also introduced its v23 roadmap. It will include a KYC, which complies with ERC 3643 standards. Part of the plan is to issue a Linux node to have additional infrastructure.

Recent whale accumulation of Pi  further highlight growing conviction in its long-term value. It is an indication of a long-term trend in European markets where the desire to gain access to regulated crypto investment is increasing amongst investors.
