Despite a 59% decline, CoinShares introduces a staking ETP for TON
- CoinShares launched a physically-backed Toncoin ETP (CTON) on SIX Swiss Exchange, offering 2% annual staking yields and zero management fees for European investors. - The product targets TON's blockchain ecosystem despite its 59% year-to-date market cap decline to $6B, leveraging Telegram's 900M+ user base and 100,000 TPS capacity. - CoinShares' expansion follows its SPAC merger and aligns with industry trends as FalconX, 21Shares, and others pursue transatlantic crypto ETP growth through M&A strategies.

The Toncoin ETP from CoinShares also signals a broader regulatory movement to bring crypto assets into mainstream finance. CoinShares, which is regulated in Jersey, France, and the United States, presents CTON as a compliant investment option for both professional and individual investors seeking access to Telegram’s blockchain network. At the same time, Telegram has broadened its financial services, with its Wallet in Telegram app now supporting tokenized stocks and ETFs.
