For several years, the United States has lagged behind Europe in terms of crypto regulations and trading of listed crypto products. This is stated by Christopher Kock, CEO of Virtune, a Swedish specialist in the facilitation and trading of listed crypto products, in an interview with Kaupr.
Kock says in the interview that ever since 2015 it has been possible to buy an exposure to crypto in Europe facilitated as an ETP (Exchange Traded Products). The ETPs are not exactly identical to the US ETFs, but have many of the same characteristics.
