Our partnership with DDA allows investors straightforward access to this breakthrough through a regulated and transparent investment product."

Listing on the SIX Swiss Exchange highlights the increasing acceptance of crypto ETPs in mainstream financial markets. As regulatory bodies worldwide continue to refine digital asset policies, offerings like STAO demonstrate the possibilities for innovation within compliant frameworks. With Bittensor’s emphasis on AI infrastructure, this ETP could attract those interested in the next wave of blockchain technology.
