A Pioneer in Crypto Investing
In 2018, 21Shares made history by launching the world’s first physically-backed crypto ETP. Since then, the company has continued to set benchmarks in the industry, including introducing the world’s first staking ETP and expanding its product range across multiple regulated European exchanges. Today, investors can access its products through platforms like SIX Swiss Exchange, Xetra, Wiener Boerse, and Boerse Stuttgart.

A Commitment to Sustainability
From day one, 21Shares has prioritized climate responsibility. The company actively measures and discloses its carbon footprint across operations, including office usage, business travel, and on-chain transactions. In partnership with myclimate, 21Shares offsets its emissions by funding high-impact climate protection projects around the world.
Having achieved carbon neutrality in 2023, the company continues to support projects aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs)—from providing clean drinking water in Ugandan schools to supporting reforestation initiatives with small-scale farmers.
This dedication to sustainability is deeply embedded in its corporate culture, ensuring that innovation in crypto investing goes hand in hand with a responsibility toward future generations.
