The 21Shares Bitcoin Core ETP (CBTC) is the first financial product in the suite. The launch of others is expected to follow shortly as the financial company promises follow-up products designed specifically for the bear market.

Hany Rashawn, co-founder and CEO of 21Shares, noted that the launch of the suite was majorly influenced by demand from investors for this sort of product in order to properly navigate the crypto winter.
