Valour Launches Zcash ETP on Swedish Stock Market

Valour, a subsidiary of Nasdaq-listed DeFi Technologies, has expanded access to Zcash (ZEC) through a new exchange-traded product (ETP) listed on Sweden's Spotlight Stock Market.

The Valour Zcash (ZEC) SEK ETP began trading on September 29 with an annual management fee of 1.9%, tracking the market performance of ZEC without requiring technical interaction with the decentralized network.

ZEC has experienced significant volatility in recent years, with its price rising from around $16 in 2024 to over $1,000 on September 4, 2026, triggering the liquidation of $34 million in short positions. The token's price peaked at around $1,500 in the weeks leading up to this issuance.

Johan Wattenström, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Technologies, stated that Zcash represents one of the pioneering applications of zero-knowledge cryptography within digital assets.
