The XDC Network has rapidly emerged as a key infrastructure layer for trade finance and cross-border payments. Its integration with financial messaging standards such as SWIFT and ISO 20022 makes it a compelling choice for institutional adoption. Backed by strategic partnerships with industry players like Deutsche Telekom, SBI Japan, and Archax, the XDC ecosystem is bridging the gap between traditional finance and decentralised networks.
"XDC stands at the intersection of blockchain innovation and real-world utility," said Mandy Chiu, Head of Financial Product Development at 21Shares. "As global finance begins to embrace tokenised assets, we're proud to offer investors a regulated way to gain exposure to this critical infrastructure."
"XDC Network is a fast, compliant settlement layer for global payments and tokenized real-world assets - and this ETP brings that vision to life," said Ritesh Kakkad, Co-Founder of XDC Network. "This ETP launch represents a significant milestone in XDC Network's journey toward mainstream institutional adoption," said Ziv Keinan, Head of Markets and Partnerships at XDC Network. "By partnering with 21Shares to bring regulated exposure to European investors, we're enabling traditional financial institutions to participate in the future of payment and trade finance infrastructure. This product validates XDC's position as the blockchain of choice for real-world asset tokenization and cross-border payment solutions."
The 21Shares XDC Network ETP (ISIN: CH1464217285) is denominated in USD (Euronext Amsterdam) and EUR (Euronext Paris), with a management fee of 2.50%. It is fully collateralised by the underlying asset and held in institutional-grade cold storage.
