First Equity-ETF focused on blockchain launched on Xetra

A new Invesco Exchange Traded Fund has been tradable on Xetra and Börse Frankfurt since Friday.

The Invesco Elwood Global Blockchain UCITS ETF Acc gives investors for the first time the opportunity to participate in the performance of companies worldwide that participate in the blockchain ecosystem. The reference index includes companies that participate in blockchain related activities such as cryptomining (i.e., the process of creating crypto currencies) as well as blockchain-related financial services, payment systems, technology solutions and other areas. The weighting of the index is measured using a so-called "blockchain category score", which ranges from 1 (potential exposure) to 5 (core exposure).
