“# Polkadot ETP hits Swedish stock market <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

The mainstream financial world has taken notable strides to incorporate various crypto assets. A new exchange-traded product (ETP) for Polkadot (DOT) recently surfaced on a mainstream exchange in Sweden.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Nordic Growth Market now hosts buying and selling for the DOT ETP, officially labeled as the \u201cVALOUR POLKADOT (DOT) SEK,\u201d according to a public statement provided to Cointelegraph. The ETP is a product of Valour, a company that produces digital asset-based ETPs. The product went live on the exchange on Monday. A company called DeFi Technologies is Valour\u2019s parent company. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a particularly exciting time for the Polkadot protocol with the upcoming launch of its parachain functionality, providing increased scalability and finalizing its core build,\u201d Diana Biggs, Valour\u2019s CEO, said, as quoted in the public statement. \u201cOur launch of Valour DOT SEK is a direct response to increased demand from both retail and institutional investors for access to further innovative blockchain protocols via our ETPs.\u201d <\/p>\n

An equities market based<\/a> in Sweden holding regulatory app<\/a>roval in the country, the Nordic Growth Market, also shortened to NGM, serves participants from multiple countries. <\/p>\n

Over the years, mainstream entities have paved more traditional roadways for cryptocurrency exposure, such as the Chicago Mercantile Exchange\u2019s Bitcoin and Ethereum futures, Grayscale\u2019s crypto-based products, and Canadian Bitcoin exchange-traded funds. <\/p>\n

Using traditional stock market measures, participants can buy and sell the DOT ETP, which is backed by the crypto asset DOT. \u201cFor each exchange traded product of Valour that is bought and sold on the stock exchange, Valour purchases or sells the equivalent amount of the underlying digital assets, meaning the products are fully backed at all times,\u201d the statement said of Valour\u2019s ETPs in general<\/a>. <\/p>\n
