21Shares launches encapsulated bitcoin product 21BTC on Ethereum

21Shares' parent company, 21.co, has announced the launch of a new encapsulated bitcoin product, 21BTC, on the Ethereum blockchain. The company is partnering with market maker Flow Traders to provide customers with "peace of mind" as they explore decentralized applications and new opportunities in Ethereum. 21BTC is unique in that it securely stores the underlying assets in cold wallets without the use of bridging technology.
