Exposure index into its trading platform. The addition is important to DeFi Technologies Inc’s investors. Using the Melanion Bitcoin Exposure index, customers of DeFi Technologies Inc would be able to get exposure to the daily price movements of Bitcoin through a diversified basket of equities that meets traditional investment fund standards. In this way, the index helps to bridge the volatility gap between equities and Bitcoin. The index presents a beta-weighted

basket that provides exposure to Bitcoin and tracks the crypto’s performance in atraditional investment fund format. The index would therefore enable DeFi Technologies Inc to provide Bitcoin exposure to its customers in various wrappers like exchange-traded funds, investment funds, certificates or structured products in a European regulatory compliant format.

The Melanion Bitcoin exposure index is important because it helps to close the gap between Bitcoin and EU regulation. It closely tracks performance of Bitcoin in a diversified basket and eliminates common risks such as hacking or loss. The index has its own advantages compared to the direct investment in Bitcoin. Bitcoin’s major concerns for institutional investors are crime, security, storage, loss, theft, orhack. Therefore, by investing in equities replicating the Bitcoin performance, investors of DeFi Technologies Inc would achieve diversified asset allocation that was not available before.

In April 2021, Melanion Capital, an investment management firm based in Paris, and BITA, a technologically advanced index platform, launched the Melanion Bitcoin Exposure Index.

Russell Starr, CEO of DeFi Technologies, talked about the development and said: “DeFi Technologies’ addition to the Melanion Bitcoin Exposure Index is a tremendous honour. This accomplishment reflects the fact that other innovative companies in the digital asset space are taking notice of our world class exchange traded products. Melanion Capital is a premiere name in the digital asset space and we are happy to help provide yet another avenue for investors to access decentralized technologies through traditional capital markets.”
