South Korea’s Samsung Asset Management will attempt to launch the fund sometime within the first half of 2022 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

It’s the first time an Asia-based ETF of its kind that includes crypto will be listed in the region. The vehicle is expected to track a basket of major blockchain tech companies.

The move follows the asset manager’s acquisition of US ETF provider Amplify Holding Company in late March, in which it took a 20% stake via a special purpose vehicle. The investment arm is Amplify’s exclusive ETF partner in Asia.

Samsung’s ETF is expected to closely resemble Amplify’s Block ETF-albeit under its brand which invests 80% of its net assets into equity securities of blockchain-based companies. The Block ETF’s top holdings include Coinbase, Microstrategy, Nvidia, SBI Holdings, and Galaxy Digital.
