FRANKFURT, GERMANY, 06 May 2026 – Deutsche Digital Assets, a leading European crypto asset manager, in collaboration with Safello, the leading cryptocurrency exchange in the Nordics, today announced that the Safello Bittensor Staked TAO ETP (STAO) has been recognised at the XENIX ETF Awards Nordics 2026, held at the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen.
The XENIX ETF Awards Nordics, now in their fourth edition, recognise the best tracker funds, ETFs and ETNs available to Nordic investors across a broad range of asset categories. This year’s ceremony brought together fund managers, index specialists, and investment professionals from across Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.
The Safello Bittensor Staked TAO ETP is a total return exchange-traded product that tracks the Kaiko Safello Staked Bittensor Index (KSSTAO Index). The ETP has a maximum management fee of 1.49% p.a.. In addition to TAO’s price movements, investors in STAO earn the full TAO staking rewards (less service provider fees), which are accumulated daily in the NAV. Rewards earned are reinvested into the ETP, further benefitting investors.
“This award reflects the growing institutional appetite for crypto ETPs that go beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bittensor sits at the intersection of AI and decentralised infrastructure — exactly the kind of exposure sophisticated investors are seeking, and exactly where DDA and Safello are leading.” said Dominik Poiger, Head of Product Management at DDA.
“Receiving this award is a meaningful recognition of the work we have done to bring regulated, accessible exposure to Bittensor to European investors,” said Frank Schuil, founder and CEO at Safello. “From our initial treasury reallocation into TAO a year ago to listing the first staked TAO ETP in Europe, this has been a deliberate journey built on a strong conviction in decentralized AI as the most important emerging asset class in crypto.”
The ETP is 100% physically backed by Bittensor, securely held in cold storage by an institutional-grade custodian. Investors can buy and sell the product during regular trading hours, just like any other listed security.
