Safello Launches First Staked TAO ETP on SIX Swiss Exchange
Safello is making significant strides in the crypto investment landscape by launching its first staked TAO exchange-traded product (ETP) in collaboration with Deutsche Digital Assets (DDA). Set to debut on the SIX Swiss Exchange on November 19 under the ticker STAO, this innovative product will allow investors to gain regulated exposure to Bittensor while earning staking rewards. The ETP is designed to cater to both retail and institutional investors, marking a pivotal moment for Safello as it ventures into the ETP market with a management fee of 1.49%. This move highlights the growing interest in tokenized, yield-generating ETPs linked to blockchain and AI networks.
The Safello Bittensor Staked TAO ETP is physically backed by TAO, securely held in cold storage by a regulated custodian. Investors will benefit from automatic reinvestment of staking rewards, which adds an attractive layer to the investment. The ETP tracks the Kaiko Safello Staked Bittensor Index, providing a comprehensive view of TAO’s staking performance and market activity. This structure is similar to existing physically backed ETPs for Bitcoin and Ethereum, but with a unique focus on the staking returns generated by Bittensor’s AI-linked ecosystem.
Safello’s CEO, Emelie Moritz, emphasized that this listing is a crucial milestone for the company, as it aims to bridge traditional finance with blockchain innovation. The collaboration with DDA not only ensures regulatory compliance but also enhances the product’s credibility in the market. As the demand for secure and regulated exposure to digital assets continues to rise, Safello’s TAO ETP is poised to attract attention from a diverse range of investors seeking to explore the potential of staking-based digital assets in a regulated environment.
