Bitcoin Updates: Crypto ETPs Signal Market Growth as Leverage Shares Debuts on SIX

Leverage Shares Ltd Introduces Triple-Leveraged Crypto ETPs on SIX Swiss Exchange

Leverage Shares Ltd has taken a leading role in the digital asset sector by unveiling the first-ever triple-leveraged long and short exchange-traded products (ETPs) for Bitcoin and Ethereum on the SIX Swiss Exchange. These innovative financial instruments provide investors with either three times the daily performance or three times the inverse performance of the two largest cryptocurrencies by market value. With this launch, the exchange now boasts a total of 452 crypto ETPs, reflecting a significant expansion in its digital asset offerings.

The debut of these products highlights the increasing appetite for advanced investment vehicles in the cryptocurrency market, especially as institutional-grade platforms aim to serve sophisticated traders navigating high volatility.

Features and Accessibility of the New ETPs

Available in both EUR and USD, the new ETPs offer the liquidity and transparency typically found in traditional stock markets. This allows investors to take precise positions on Bitcoin and Ethereum price movements, as detailed in a press release from SIX. José Poncela, Head of Product at Leverage Shares, noted that these ETPs are tailored for experienced investors who understand leverage and daily rebalancing, aligning with the company's goal of making advanced strategies more accessible through clear and transparent products.

Leverage Shares currently manages assets exceeding $1.5 billion and offers over 180 ETPs worldwide, establishing itself as a prominent provider of leveraged and inverse products across equities, commodities, and now, digital assets.

SIX Swiss Exchange: A Hub for Crypto Innovation

The SIX Swiss Exchange has reported a 19% year-over-year growth in trading turnover for crypto ETPs, reaching CHF 3.83 billion across 203,000 trades. Bitcoin remains the most actively traded crypto ETP, accounting for 31.7% of the volume, followed by Solana at 25%. This trend demonstrates sustained interest in the most liquid digital assets. Danielle Reischuk, Senior ETFs & ETPs Sales Manager at SIX, emphasized the exchange’s ability to efficiently list innovative products within a regulated environment, reinforcing its reputation as a trusted platform for expanding investor options, according to official statements.

Market Conditions and Associated Risks

The launch comes at a time when the broader crypto market is experiencing a downturn. In November 2025, Bitcoin and Ethereum prices dropped by nearly 21% and 26%, respectively, falling below $84,000 and $2,700. Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas commented on the timing, describing it as potentially highly favorable or unfavorable due to the inherent risks of leveraged products in turbulent markets. Critics caution that such instruments can magnify losses during sharp market corrections, a concern heightened by recent major crypto sell-offs, including a $19 billion liquidation event in October 2025, as noted by crypto analysts.

Industry Trends and Future Outlook

Leverage Shares’ move into the crypto ETP space reflects a broader wave of product innovation, with other firms like 21Shares and Grayscale also launching leveraged and alternative coin-focused funds, according to industry observers. The company’s White Label platform allows partners to introduce their own branded ETPs, highlighting a strategic emphasis on scalability. As the digital asset market continues to mature, the integration of leveraged ETPs on regulated exchanges such as SIX may represent a step forward in balancing innovation with investor safeguards.
