Breaking: 21Shares Reduces Fees for Bitcoin Ethereum Core ETP, Lists on Xetra

In a groundbreaking revelation, 21Shares announced a significant reduction in the management fees for its Bitcoin Ethereum Core ETP (ABBA). In addition, the ETP provider listed ABBA on the Xetra exchange, effective March 12, 2025, aiming to make crypto investments more affordable and accessible.

Notably, 21Shares’ ABBA offers investors a cost-effective way to invest in both Bitcoin and Ethereum, with the added security of being fully backed by these two leading cryptocurrencies. Let’s now unveil how the latest development will provide advanced investment opportunities in Bitcoin and Ethereum.

21Shares Lowers ABBA’s Management Fees and Lists on Xetra

According to a press release, 21Shares, one of the world’s largest ETP providers, announced the reduction of management fees for its Bitcoin and Ethereum Core ETP (ABBA) to 0.49%.

Significantly, the fee reduction coincides with the listing of ABBA on the Xetra exchange, which took effect on March 12, 2025. Backed by BTC and ETH, the 21Shares ABBA has become an even more compelling investment option with its reduced management fee of 0.49%. It offers investors a convenient and cost-effective way to tap into both leading cryptocurrencies.

ABBA’s Xetra Listing: 21Shares’ European Expansion

Interestingly, 21Shares is envisioning the expansion of ABBA’s availability. Thus, the ETP provider has listed ABBA on Xetra, Deutsche Börse’s leading trading platform for exchange-traded products, expanding its availability. Commenting on the development, Mandy Chiu, Head of Financial Product Development at 21Shares, stated, “We are committed to continuously improving our product offerings to meet the evolving needs of our growing pool of investors worldwide.”

The listing of ABBA on Xetra is a strategic step in 21Shares’ expansion plans, aiming to enhance liquidity, accessibility, and transparency for European investors. Thus, the development ultimately solidifies the company’s presence in the region. Chiu further stated,

At 21Shares, our mission is to provide investors with the most efficient and innovative crypto investment products. Reducing the fees on ABBA and bringing it to Xetra are important steps in making Bitcoin and Ethereum more accessible through a trusted and regulated investment vehicle.

This move follows the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) decision to postpone the approval of several ETFs, including 21Shares’.

The Future of Exchange-Traded Products

Digital asset investment products have experienced a fourth consecutive week of outflows, totaling $876 million by March 10. This follows a record $2.9 billion outflow the previous week. The four-week total now stands at $4.75 billion, significantly reducing year-to-date inflows to $2.6 billion.

Amid this negative sentiment, 21Shares’ decision to lower its ETP’s management fees has sparked optimism. It provides investors a broader opportunity to invest in both Bitcoin and Ethereum at a lower cost, making it an attractive option in a market where investors are increasingly cost-sensitive.
