Fineqia Issues Bitcoin Yield ETP via DeFi; Yield Compounds Investors' BTC Holdings
LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / July 2, 2025 / Fineqia International Inc. (CSE:FNQ)(OTC:FNQQF) (Frankfurt:FNQA), a digital asset and investment business, announces the Fineqia Bitcoin Yield Exchange Traded Product (ETP) (Ticker: YBTC, ISIN: LI1444931821), a listed product that enables investors to garner additional Bitcoin while holding it. YBTC targets an annual yield of 6% via decentralised finance (DeFi) activities on the blockchain.
YBTC automatically converts this yield into Bitcoin (BTC), increasing an investor's BTC holdings without requiring any additional capital. Listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange (Wiener Börse), it is the first regulated, exchange-traded instrument in the world to provide BTC yield from DeFi protocols. The product is available for institutional and retail investors.
"With YBTC, we've transformed Bitcoin from a store of value into a yield-generating digital asset," said Bundeep Singh Rangar, chief executive officer of Fineqia. "It allows investors to earn more Bitcoin while they hold it, combining long-term conviction with compounding returns, all inside a regulated wrapper."
YBTC arrives at a time of increasing investor interest in crypto products. As per CoinShares' Digital Asset Funds Report, Bitcoin ETPs now account for more than $150 billion in global assets under management[i]. Most of these products, however, offer only passive exposure and are devoid of any yield.
YBTC is the first physically backed, fully regulated product to offer meaningful yield on Bitcoin - without capping upside or compromising exposure. While some structured products generate yield through options-based overlays, they typically limit price appreciation, leading to underperformance relative to holding BTC outright.
In contrast, YBTC allows investors to retain full Bitcoin exposure while earning additional BTC through carefully managed DeFi-based yield activities. It offers a rare combination of daily liquidity, transparent pricing, and sustainable yield - all within a listed, compliant investment vehicle.
There is increasing demand for innovative products that go beyond simply corresponding to BTC's price. Nearly nine out of ten institutional investors plan to increase allocations to ETPs and spot crypto assets in 2025, as per an EY Report.[ii]
The ETP is issued by Fineqia AG, the company's Liechtenstein-based subsidiary. It is advised by Psalion Operations Ltd, a blockchain-focused investment firm with deep expertise in DeFi yield. The product offers in-kind investment, allowing Bitcoin holders to transfer their holdings to the ETP without incurring costs.
YBTC joins Fineqia's expanding portfolio of yield-oriented crypto investment vehicles, including the Fineqia FTSE Cardano Enhanced Yield ETN (Ticker: YADA; ISIN: LI1408648106). Together, these offerings reflect the company's vision to deliver secure, transparent, and innovative access to digital assets through regulated market infrastructure.
DeFi refers to income generation activities such as borrowing, lending, trading and liquidity provisioning, conducted on blockchain networks. Transactions are managed via digital contracts stored on a blockchain, called smart contracts, that automatically execute when predetermined conditions are met. They provide greater transparency, efficiency, and accessibility compared with traditional financial systems.
The DeFi sector is growing significantly with the total value locked (TVL) in DeFi protocols surpassing $182 billion in December 2024, according to DeFi Llama.[iii] Market research firm Statista projects global DeFi market revenue could reach $542 billion in 2025, driven by rising adoption and innovation.[iv]

Sweden, the Czech Republic, and Greece Crowned Champions of Harm Reduction in Brussels3.7.2025 07:00:00 EEST | Press release
BRUSSELS, BE / ACCESS Newswire / July 3, 2025 / Brussels transformed into a Champions League pitch for tobacco harm reduction as the World Vapers' Alliance (WVA) honoured Sweden, the Czech Republic, and Greece with the "Champions of Change" trophy for their outstanding progress in cutting smoking rates. The ceremony, staged in front of the European Parliament, shone a spotlight on the countries leading Europe's fight against smoking-while EU officials looked on from the sidelines. WVA Director Michael Landl, presenting the awards, remarked, "The EU is stuck in a cycle of prohibition and continues to overlook the evidence that's saving lives. Instead of embracing proven solutions, Brussels is making it harder for smokers to quit." Sweden led the celebrations, having become the world's first officially smoke-free nation, with just 4.5% of Swedish-born adults smoking-five times lower than the EU average and 16 years ahead of the EU's own goal. The Czech Republic and Greece were also recog
