Valour, a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies, has launched the Valour Dogecoin (DOGE) Exchange-Traded Product (ETP) on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market. This new ETP allows retail and institutional investors to gain exposure to Dogecoin (DOGE), the world’s largest memecoin, without directly owning DOGE.
The launch of the Valour Dogecoin (DOGE) ETP expands Valour’s digital asset products, offering investors exposure to the world’s largest memecoin by market cap in a secure and regulated manner. DeFi Technologies, the parent company of Valour Inc., announced the introduction of the Valour Dogecoin (DOGE) ETP on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market.
The launch marks the first Dogecoin ETP available in the Nordics, providing retail and institutional investors an opportunity to gain exposure to DOGE without directly owning the cryptocurrency. Valour, a leading issuer of exchange-traded products (ETPs) and a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies, now offers investors a simple and secure way to gain exposure to Dogecoin, which currently holds a market cap of $59.53 billion and is the 7th largest digital asset globally.
Dogecoin (DOGE) surged in popularity and value after Donald Trump’s election victory and the president-elect’s announcement of the Department of Government Efficiency, nicknamed DOGE. According to Trump, DOGE will pave the way for his administration to “dismantle Government Bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditure, and restructure Federal Agencies – Essential to the “Save America” Movement.” Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will co-lead the newly created department.
Johanna Belitz, Head of Nordics at Valour, commented on the motivation behind the launch of the ETP: “In light of the recent U.S. presidential election results and the subsequent surge in demand for Dogecoin, the launch of the Valour Dogecoin ETP on the Spotlight Stock Market aligns with our mission to provide investors with timely access to high-demand digital assets.
The growing popularity of Dogecoin, bolstered by influential figures like Elon Musk, highlights our commitment to delivering innovative and diversified investment opportunities.”
Dogecoin, the OG memecoin, is a peer-to-peer, open-source cryptocurrency introduced in 2013 as a comedic alternative to Bitcoin.
Despite its joking beginnings, DOGE transitioned into the most popular and widely utilized digital currency with strong community backing and market presence. DOGE employs the Scrypt algorithm to enable fast and low-cost transactions and boasts several unique features. Dogecoin’s utility stems from its inflationary design with no maximum supply and its support for steady coin issuance, all of which make it ideal for microtransactions and daily use.
The memecoin is widely used to tip content creators, donate to charitable causes, participate in crowdfunding initiatives, and make payments to merchants like SpaceX and the Dallas Mavericks. DOGE’s success is driven by its active and loyal community and the support of Elon Musk. The memecoin surged in value following Trump’s victory, gaining over 145% in the past month.
