Raising the bar for crypto investments: Heliad AG launches the Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index via Heliad Crypto Partners

Frankfurt am Main, December 17, 2024 – The listed investment company Heliad AG announces a new milestone: the launch of the Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index (ISIN: DE000A4AHX6 / Ticker: HELIBTI) by its subsidiary Heliad Crypto Partners. In cooperation with Deutsche Digital Assets, a leading German issuer of crypto investment products, the index developed by Heliad Crypto Partners has been replicated as an Exchange Traded Product under the name DDA Heliad Dynamic Blockchain ETP (ISIN: DE000A4AHWT9 / Ticker: HELI) and will be tradable on the Stuttgart Stock Exchange. The ETP sets out to provide institutional as well as private investors with easy access to a well-founded and diversified crypto strategy.

Proven principles for digital assets

Heliad Crypto Partners, founded in 2023 with the goal of bringing blockchain-based investment strategies to market, integrates proven and familiar principles of traditional venture capital and stock market analysis with digital assets. With the Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index, this philosophy has been translated into a replicable strategy that is unique and complementary to existing crypto index products available on the market today.

The Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index dynamically selects and allocates the most promising blockchain tokens based on user adoption and relative valuation metrics. This makes it the world’s first index to focus exclusively on the careful analysis of relevant fundamentals while also taking into account fundamentals-based valuation discrepancies. Thanks to this innovative strategy and broad diversification, the Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index stands out from other crypto investment products that are oftentimes limited to an allocation proportional to market capitalization – and thus enables investors to systematically invest in the most promising projects in this innovative industry.

Impressive results and broad market appeal

Backtests of the index show the most promising results with consistent outperformance against the overall market, underlining its future potential. The Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index allows investors to make informed investments in the crypto market – whether experienced traders or newcomers.

“With our index, we integrate a large number of relevant on-chain metrics and allocate programmatically to Blockchains that, already today, feature strong user activity,” explains Christopher Garlich, Managing Director of Heliad Crypto. “With the current tailwind from politics and an increasingly positive investor climate, our index offers a simple and efficient way to access a complex, fundamentals-based strategy with an excellent track-record of outperformance.”

The right time for a revolution in crypto investing

The launch of the Heliad Dynamic Blockchain Index comes at a favourable moment in time, as the adoption and integration of cryptocurrencies continues to advance. This product is at the center of an inflection point where traditional financial instruments and digital assets are moving closer together.

With the launch of the index, Heliad Crypto Partners and Heliad AG are bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital assets. Investors now have an attractive option to benefit from the growth and transformation potential of the innovative crypto and blockchain space.
