DeFi Technologies (Nasdaq: DEFT) announced that its digital asset ETP subsidiary, Valour, has surpassed US$1 billion in assets under management (AUM) as of July 22, 2025. This represents a 31% increase since May 30, reflecting renewed investor interest in regulated crypto investment vehicles amid a broader digital asset market rebound.
This growth is being driven by Valour’s expanding portfolio of exchange-traded products (ETPs), which includes major Layer 1 blockchains, staking tokens, and emerging cryptocurrencies. These products are listed across multiple European exchanges, and the company now manages over 75 ETPs. Building on this momentum, Valour is accelerating its international expansion through new partnerships in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Collaborations with AsiaNext and SovFi aim to introduce its ETPs to regulated exchanges across Singapore and other Asian markets. Meanwhile, in Africa, a strategic partnership with the Nairobi Securities Exchange is set to open up digital asset investment to a broader investor base. In Turkey, Valour is working with Misyon Bank to offer Bitcoin and Ethereum ETPs through established local banking channels.
Valour’s vertically integrated model is also fueling its profitability. In the first quarter of 2025, the company generated US$12.6 million in revenue—comprising US$10 million from staking and lending and US$2.6 million from management fees. It retains an average yield of 8% on staked assets, allowing it to convert AUM into recurring income while keeping profit margins intact, as the yield is not passed on to ETP holders.

He emphasized the company’s commitment to making regulated crypto investment products more accessible globally.
