Executive Opinion

Jacob Lindberg, CEO of Vinter, said, "A year ago, the industry was in its infancy, but with continued growth in the asset class, combined with interest from institutions, the market is maturing. We named Vinter as such because we founded the company during the crypto winter, but today experience continued and rapid development. We have focused on crypto since the beginning, which has meant that we’re able to build indexes that no one else can. This gives our partner ETP and ETF issuers a competitive advantage. With this round of funding, we can grow even faster."

Zihao Xu, Head of Fintech at Octopus Ventures, said, "We see a huge appetite within crypto for professionalization and integration into the existing institutional ecosystem, and Vinter is creating innovative products to make it easier and safer to execute on investment strategies in crypto assets. Jacob, Marco and HÃ¥kan combine a special set of skills with incredible ambition that will put them at the forefront of institutionalising the crypto ETF sector and help onboard the next trillion dollars."
