ESFL will collaborate with SFC-licensed virtual asset trading platforms ("VATP") to facilitate its clients in directly subscribing to and redeeming these ETFs using Bitcoin and Ether. ESFL is also among the first brokers in Hong Kong to offer margin financing services for these ETFs, providing leverage against positions in virtual asset ("VA") spot ETFs to enhance clients' purchasing power.

In addition to cash, investors can also utilize VA tokens (i.e., Bitcoin and Ether) for subscriptions and redemptions, significantly enhancing market flexibility and liquidity. ESFL will be among the first brokers in Hong Kong to offer such in-kind subscriptions and redemptions services. Clients with securities and VA accounts at the Company, as well as an account with a designated VATP, can easily conduct in-kind subscriptions and redemptions using Bitcoin and Ether.
ESFL is also one of the first brokers in Hong Kong to offer margin financing services for VA spot ETFs, enabling clients to leverage their positions in these ETFs, increasing capital efficiency and flexibility in their investment portfolios, thereby maximizing trading opportunities.
The Eddid Financial Research Team will provide investors with a series of professional research reports on the VA-related products, dissecting global market trends and analyzing various investment tool.
