WisdomTree's Physical CoinDesk 20 ETP (WCRP) offers exposure to the digital assets listed on the CoinDesk 20, in a similar way to other ETPs that offer exposure to traditional finance's S&P 500 or the NASDAQ.

WCRP is listed on Deutsche Börse Xetra, the Swiss Stock Exchange SIX, and Euronext exchanges in Paris and Amsterdam.

Additionally, WCRP generates a staking yield, allowing investors to benefit from rewards earned by helping secure the underlying blockchain networks.

The CoinDesk 20 Index, launched in January 2024, has quickly become a key benchmark for digital asset investors, with over $14 billion in trading volume in its first year.
