ETF sui Bitcoin, cosa sono e quando saranno disponibili

Il Bitcoin è una criptovaluta decentralizzata, che non dipende da alcuna autorità centrale o intermediario per la sua emissione e il suo trasferimento. Il Bitcoin si basa su una rete peer-to-peer di nodi che validano le transazioni e mantengono una copia della blockchain, il registro pubblico e immutabile di tutte le operazioni in Bitcoin *. Gli ETF (Exchange Traded Funds) sono fondi negoziati in borsa, che replicano l’andamento di un indice, un’attività o un settore. Gli ETF sono prodotti finanziari regolamentati, che offrono agli investitori la possibilità di diversificare il proprio portafoglio e di beneficiare della liquidità e della trasparenza dei mercati tradizionali *. Un ETF sul Bitcoin è un fondo che investe direttamente o indirettamente nella criptovaluta, permettendo agli investitori di partecipare alla sua performance senza doverla possedere fisicamente o gestire un wallet. Un ETF sul Bitcoin può essere costituito da Bitcoin reali, da contratti derivati o da azioni di aziende legate al settore delle criptovalute3. Attualmente, non esistono ETF sul Bitcoin approvati dalle autorità di regolamentazione dei principali mercati, come la SEC negli Stati Uniti o la Consob in Italia. Tuttavia, ci sono alcuni ETF sul Bitcoin disponibili in altre borse, come quella di Toronto o di Stoccolma, che possono essere acquistati da investitori qualificati o tramite broker autorizzati *. Alcuni esempi di ETF sul Bitcoin sono: - Purpose Bitcoin ETF (BTCC): il primo ETF sul Bitcoin approvato in Nord America, lanciato nel febbraio 2021 sulla Borsa di Toronto. Questo ETF investe direttamente in Bitcoin fisici, custoditi da Gemini Trust Company, e addebita una commissione di gestione dello 0,75%. - VanEck Vectors Bitcoin ETN (VBTC): un exchange traded note (ETN) che replica il prezzo del Bitcoin tramite contratti futures. Questo ETN è quotato sulla Borsa di Francoforte dal novembre 2020 e ha una commissione di gestione dello 0,25%. - WisdomTree Bitcoin ETP (BTCW): un exchange traded product (ETP) che investe in Bitcoin fisici, custoditi da Coinbase Custody Trust Company. Questo ETP è quotato sulla Borsa di Zurigo dal dicembre 2019 e ha una commissione di gestione dello 0,95%. Gli ETF (Exchange Traded Funds) sono fondi negoziati in borsa, che replicano l’andamento di un indice, un’attività o un settore. Gli ETF sono prodotti finanziari regolamentati, che offrono agli investitori la possibilità di diversificare il proprio portafoglio e di beneficiare della liquidità e della trasparenza dei mercati tradizionali *. La Security Exchange Commission (SEC) è l’agenzia del governo degli Stati Uniti che vigila e regolamenta il mercato mobiliare americano, con lo scopo di evitare le manipolazioni e proteggere gli investitori2. La SEC è presieduta da Gary Gensler, che è in carica dal 2021 dopo la designazione del presidente Joe Biden *. La SEC ha il potere di approvare o rifiutare la quotazione di ETF sul Bitcoin, che sono fondi che investono direttamente o indirettamente nella criptovaluta, permettendo agli investitori di partecipare alla sua performance senza doverla possedere fisicamente o gestire un wallet *. Finora, la SEC non ha approvato nessun ETF sul Bitcoin, nonostante le numerose richieste presentate da vari emittenti. La SEC ha espresso preoccupazioni riguardo alla volatilità, alla manipolazione e alla sicurezza del mercato del Bitcoin, e ha richiesto maggiori garanzie e standard per la sua regolamentazione 3. Tuttavia, alcuni osservatori ritengono che la SEC possa cambiare il suo atteggiamento sotto la guida di Gensler, che ha una maggiore conoscenza e apertura verso le criptovalute, avendo insegnato un corso sul tema al MIT. Inoltre, la SEC ha recentemente adottato una nuova regola per modernizzare la regolazione degli ETF, stabilendo un quadro chiaro e coerente per la maggior parte degli ETF operanti oggi 1. Alcuni membri della Camera dei Rappresentanti degli Stati Uniti hanno scritto una lettera a Gensler, sollecitandolo ad approvare un ETF sul Bitcoin “immediatamente”, sostenendo che ciò aumenterebbe la concorrenza, l’innovazione e la protezione degli investitori *. Non si sa ancora se e quando la SEC approverà un ETF sul Bitcoin, ma molti investitori e operatori del settore sono in attesa di una decisione che potrebbe avere un impatto significativo sul mercato delle criptovalute. La Consob, l’autorità di vigilanza finanziaria italiana, ha avvertito i risparmiatori che le società del gruppo Binance non sono autorizzate a prestare servizi e attività di investimento in Italia, soprattutto per quanto riguarda i derivati e gli stock token correlati alle criptovalute *. Questa è una misura precauzionale per proteggere gli investitori dai rischi e dalle frodi che possono derivare da un mercato non regolamentato e volatile *. Binance è la più grande piattaforma di scambio di criptovalute al mondo, con un volume di trading mensile di oltre 600 miliardi di dollari3. Tuttavia, la sua struttura aziendale e la sua sede legale sono poco chiare, e la società è stata oggetto di indagini e sanzioni da parte di diverse autorità di regolamentazione in altri paesi, come il Regno Unito, la Germania, il Giappone e gli Stati Uniti *. Per ora, Binance continua a operare in Italia, ma la Consob ha invitato i risparmiatori a usare la massima cautela e diligenza nel fare operazioni su strumenti correlati a criptovalute, e a verificare sempre l’identità e l’autorizzazione della controparte contrattuale *.

Nella giornata di ieri, la società di Giancarlo Devasini, attiva nel settore delle criptovalute – ha annunciato di avere acquistato una quota di minoranza della Juventus. Tether non ha indicato a quanto ammonti l’investimento, ma il CEO Paolo Ardoino ha confermato che la quota ha superato il 5% dei diritti di voto, motivo per cui è stata effettuata regolare comunicazione alla Consob (la disclosure ufficiale è attesa nei prossimi giorni). Operante nel settore delle criptovalute, Tether è una società con sede a El Salvador (dove si è trasferita di recente), guidata da due imprenditori italiani. Il CEO è Paolo Ardoino e tra i fondatori e più rilevanti membri dell’azienda vi è anche Giancarlo Devasini. Tether opera principalmente nel mercato degli stablecoin. Si tratta di criptovalute che hanno il proprio valore ancorato a una valuta classica, come il dollaro. Nel 2024 la società dice di avere fatto registrare utili per 5,2 miliardi di dollari nel primo semestre. Giancarlo Devasini e Paolo Ardoino sono rispettivamente il direttore finanziario e l’amministratore delegato di Tether e possiedono il 47% e il 20% della società, attività che li ha fatti entrare nella classifica Forbes dei miliardari italiani. Ma a quanto ammonta il loro patrimonio? Patrimonio Paolo Ardoino e Giancarlo Devasini – Le cifre del fondatore di Tether Secondo quanto emerge dalla classifica dei miliardari di Forbes, attualmente Giancarlo Devasini, la mente di Tether, vanta un patrimonio di 9,2 miliardi di dollari (cifra che al cambio attuale è pari a poco meno di 8,8 miliardi di euro). Questa cifra lo mette alla posizione numero 306 della graduatoria a livello mondiale e al quinto posto a livello italiano, come di seguito: - Giovanni Ferrero – 41,7 miliardi di dollari - Andrea Pignataro – 26,2 miliardi di dollari - Giorgio Armani – 13,5 miliardi di dollari - Piero Ferrari e famiglia – 10,2 miliardi di dollari - Giancarlo Devasini – 9,2 miliardi di dollari Patrimonio Paolo Ardoino e Giancarlo Devasini – I numeri del CEO Anche il CEO Paolo Ardoino è entrato nella classifica dei miliardari grazie a Tether. L’amministratore delegato della società – intervenuto sul suo profilo X per chiarire alcuni punti dell’investimento – vanta un patrimonio stimato in 3,9 miliardi di dollari (3,7 miliardi di euro circa). A livello di classifica mondiale si posiziona all’886° posto, mentre in Italia è 24° tra i miliardari. Complessivamente, per Devasini e Ardoino parliamo dunque di un patrimonio cumulato pari a 13,1 miliardi di dollari (circa 12,5 miliardi di euro al cambio attuale). Read the full article

Armin Ordodary, FSM Smart, and Lau Global Services

In the era of CFDs and binary options, massive international forex operations arose. With the peak occurring in or around 2015, many of them began operating between 2010 and 2012. Legislators and regulators needed some time to recognize emerging trends and devise effective countermeasures. The beginning of 2014 saw regulators issue warnings about binary options, signaling the end of the FX gold rush. It took three more years for regulators to formally outlaw binary options. A few international forex operations impacted hundreds of thousands of retail investors between 2012 and 2017. One of the groups that created a wave of binary options, forex, and cryptocurrency trading methods is Lau Global Services Corp. Media has requested additional information to establish an EFRI funds recovery campaign.

The FSM Smart Broker Scheme by Armin Ordodary

The FSM Smart operation has been aggressively gaining clients through their Serbian boiler room Upmarket d.o.o., according to information provided to the media by whistleblowers. Benrich Holdings Ltd., a company based in Cyprus, is the only shareholder in this boiler room. Armin Ordodary, a resident of Cyprus, is a director of both companies. Upmarkt is only one of the Lau Global Services Corp operations' several boiler rooms. FinTelegrem has information that indicates FSM Smart and Armin Ordodary are involved in the “Lau Network.”

The “Lau Network” has only a few minor branches, including the Serbian Upmarkt d.o.o. Kiev, Ukraine, has served as something of an epicenter for additional boiler rooms that have already been discovered in other jurisdictions. For instance, call center addresses in Kiev were discovered by the Russian website Forex Analysis. Apart from E&G Bulgaria, Lau Global Services Corp is unquestionably one of the biggest broker enterprises on the planet. Even with so many offshore connections, this operation appears to be run out of Ukraine and the Balkans.

The Global Services Network of Lau

It is clear that there are connections between the operators of FSM Smart and other individuals, such as MTI Markets (www.mtimarkets.com). According to reports, Lau Global Services Corp., the company behind this unlawful broker, also ran the following other broker operations:

TradingMX (www.tradingmx.com)

LGS Corp www.lgs-corp.com

TradingBanks (www.tradingbanks.com)

Trade12 (https://www.trade12.com)

MTI Markets (mtimarkets.com)

Grizzly (www.grizzly-ltd.com)

The following companies have been linked to the Lau Global Services Group by the Media team:

Belize’s Lau Global Services Corp

Serbian Upmarkt d.o.o

Global Fin Services Ltd (UK), Exo Capital Markets Ltd (Marshall Islands), and MTI Investments LLC or MTI Markets Ltd (Marshall Islands)

Malta-based Grizzly Ltd

Cyprus-based R Capital Solutions Ltd

Cyprus-based Benrich Holdings Ltd

SIO Ltd (Cyprus)

Eyar Financial Corp Limited (Vanatu)

Regulators from many jurisdictions issued numerous warnings to the brands and businesses connected to Lau Global Services Corp.

August 2015: MXTrade and Lau Global Services were the targets of an investor alert by the Italian CONSOB.

September 2015: MXTrade and Lau Global Services were the targets of an investor alert from Cyprus agency CySec.

April 2016: The Belgian Financial Services Authority (FSMA) cautioned investors.

November 2016: The Australian regulator ASIC issued a warning to investors about MXTrade.

November 2016: The New Zealand regulator FMA issued a warning to investors about EXO Capital Markets Ltd. trading as Trade12.

November 2017: The Guernsey regulator issued a warning to investors about Exo Capital Markets Ltd. trading as Trade12.

Individuals Found in the Network

The individuals listed in the FSM Smart network include Mathew Bradley, Ali Mahmoudi, and Armin Ordodary, a resident of Cyprus who is purportedly a former Windsor Brokers employee. Born in January of 1991, Armin Ordodary has registered multiple forex trading domains during the years of 2013 and 2014. In addition, he serves as the director of Bythos Yachts Management OÜ in Estonia.

The well-established ties that Armin Ordodary

We are unable to determine at this time if Armin Ordodary was a lieutenant in Cyprus or one of the network’s leaders. In actuality, we have managed to determine his affiliation with businesses, endeavors, and undertakings within the brokering landscape. He has ties to both the Nepcore project and SIAO Ltd, a provider of services. Additionally, we are aware that he oversees the Upmarkt boiler room in Serbia, which provided services to FSM Smart. He offered marketing services for the Lau Network’s operations through Nepcore.

One of the groups that created a wave of illicit binary options, and cryptocurrency trading methods is Corp. Media has requested additional information to establish an EFRI funds recovery campaign.

The FSM Smart by Armin Ordodary

The fraudulent FSM Smart (www.fsmsmart.com) has been aggressively gaining clients through their Serbian boiler room Upmarket d.o.o., according to information provided to the media by whistleblowers. Benrich Holdings Ltd., a company based in Cyprus, is the only shareholder in this boiler room. Armin Ordodary, a resident of Cyprus, is a director of both companies.

Apart from E&G Bulgaria, Lau Global Services Corp is unquestionably one of the biggest illicit broker enterprises on the planet. Even with so many offshore connections, this operation appears to be run out of Ukraine and the Balkans.

However, let’s begin with FSM Smart and work our way up to the larger picture. Early in 2018, the illicit FSM Smart made its debut. Investor cautionary note regarding the current FSM Smart (www.fsmsmart.com) :

August 2018: In the summer of 2018, the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) of New Zealand issued a warning on FSM Smart.

In November 2018, the Canadian watchdog in Manitoba (MSC) issued an investor warning against FSM Smart, while the financial market regulatory organisation in Switzerland, 

FINMA issued a warning against the company. FSM Smart’s contact address is reportedly Hertensteinstrasse 51, 6004 Luzern in Switzerland.

It is clear that there are connections between the operators of the FSM Smart and other con artists, such as MTI Markets (www.mtimarkets.com). According to reports, Corp., the company behind this unlawful broker, also ran the following other illicit:

Most of the businesses don’t have a website or aren’t active on social media. Armin Ordodary, a resident of Cyprus, appears to be involved. The last several months have seen the disappearance of all the websites and social media accounts he is directly related to going offline. Only to bring up his SIAO Ltd.

Understanding the Forex Market in Italy.

The foreign exchange market, commonly known as forex or FX, is the world’s largest financial market, with a daily trading volume exceeding $6 trillion. Forex trading involves the exchange of currencies, allowing participants to profit from fluctuating exchange rates. In Italy, as in many other countries, the forex market has gained significant traction among investors, traders, and even small businesses looking to hedge currency risk.

What Does Forex Mean?

Forex, short for foreign exchange, refers to the global marketplace for buying and selling currencies. Unlike stock markets, forex trading operates 24/7, thanks to its decentralized nature. Participants include banks, corporations, governments, institutional investors, and individual traders.

Currencies are traded in pairs, such as EUR/USD (Euro/US Dollar) or GBP/JPY (British Pound/Japanese Yen). The price of a currency pair reflects how much one currency is worth in relation to the other. For example, if the EUR/USD is trading at 1.10, it means 1 Euro is equal to 1.10 US Dollars.

Why is Forex Trading Popular in Italy?

Italy has a thriving community of forex traders due to several factors:

Accessibility: With online trading platforms, anyone with an internet connection can participate in the forex market.

High Liquidity: The forex market’s massive size ensures high liquidity, meaning traders can enter and exit positions easily.

Leverage: Forex brokers in Italy often offer leverage, allowing traders to control large positions with relatively small capital.
