Hey Nimbus community,
This week 21Shares AG, aka the world’s largest issuer of cryptocurrency ETPs, announced the listing of the first crypto ETP for the Cosmos blockchain in CHF, EUR, and USD on SIX Swiss Exchange. The product is geared toward investors who look to “capitalize on the growth trajectory of interoperable, decentralized blockchains that are empowering the early stages of the metaverse.” Sounds promising, isn’t it?
Another great news was that Bloomberg and Grayscale Investments announced the launch of the Bloomberg Grayscale Future of Finance Index, tracking the rapidly evolving digital economy – specifically the confluence of technology, finance, and digital assets. The index includes companies that сould significantly contribute to the growth of the digital economy and its overall revenue within the next two years.
Elsewhere Google has partnered with Coinbase Global and BitPay, to store crypto assets in digital cards, while still having users pay in traditional currencies. On top of that, the IT giant has hired former PayPal Holdings Inc. executive Arnold Goldberg to run its payments division and set a new course for the business after it scrapped a push into banking. This move should be considered part of a broader strategy to team up with a wider range of financial services, including cryptocurrencies.
In the NFT universe, Coinbase and Mastercard partnered to make it as easy as possible to buy an NFT and make sure it’s the best consumer experience. The company also disclosed its plans to find ways to bring this opportunity to the broader ecosystem through Mastercard’s scale and global network.
