Fee Details and Subscription Information

Victory Securities has just issued a guide detailing some charges associated with the ETF. In transactions in the primary market, the investor is charged 0.5% to 1% on Ethereum and Bitcoin, with a minimum charge of $850. Furthermore, the guide outlines the cash redemption fee in the primary market, which will range between 0.1% and 0.15% of the transaction value, with a set minimum fee of $500.

The commission applied for trades conducted by phone or email shall be 0.215% per trade, and the minimum charge shall be $8.

Increased Accessibility and Institutional Adoption

The move of Victory Securities is a massive breakthrough in the adoption of cryptocurrencies within the mainstream of traditional financial services in Hong Kong. 

Through the creation of a regulated and structured investment vehicle for Bitcoin and Ethereum, the firm is enabling wider access to these digital assets by local and international investors. This could likely result in greater institutional adoption and interest in the cryptocurrency market.

Background on Hong Kong’s Cryptocurrency ETFs

As earlier reported, the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission had given the official green light for spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. This makes Hong Kong the first jurisdiction to offer a spot Ethereum ETF. As a result, several major financial institutions received approvals, demonstrating a rising embrace and appreciation of cryptocurrency products in the region’s financial arena.

The approvals were granted to several leading financial institutions, indicating a growing acceptance and recognition of cryptocurrency products in the region’s financial landscape.

With these ETFs, investors can now directly invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum through a regulated exchange, thus creating a more structured and safer way of investing in cryptocurrencies. Even though these developments have created a buzz, there are still limitations for mainland Chinese investors, as they are currently not permitted to participate, and the cryptocurrency ban in China is still in force.
