CoinShares PLC (Nasdaq: CSHR) ("CoinShares" or the "Company"), a leading global asset manager specialising in digital assets, today announced that it has been named to the inaugural Fortune Crypto 100 in the DATs & ETFs category.
The Fortune Crypto 100 is a definitive ranking of the companies and protocols shaping the global digital asset ecosystem, spanning ten categories from asset management and fintech to venture capital, mining and stablecoins. Compiled independently by the editorial team at Fortune Crypto, in the tradition of the Fortune 500, the list was built on a series of rigorous methodologies, informed by a survey of top crypto professionals and supported by financial, technical and on-chain analysis from digital asset intelligence firm Inca Digital.
CoinShares is one of the few European-headquartered firms recognised in a ranking dominated by U.S.-based organisations, reflecting both the scale of the American market and CoinShares's standing as a global asset manager built on a regulated, hybrid model of digital asset finance.
A recognition built on more than a decade of regulated digital asset finance
CoinShares has focused exclusively on digital assets since 2013, building an asset management business that operates inside the regulatory perimeter rather than outside it. That approach, combining the discipline of traditional finance with native digital asset expertise, has positioned the Company across investment management, trading and capital markets, serving corporations, financial institutions and individuals.
The recognition follows a defining period in the Company's development. CoinShares is now publicly listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker CSHR, extending a regulated, transparent operating model into the U.S. public markets and giving investors a listed route into a pure-play digital asset manager. Inclusion in the Fortune Crypto 100 places that model alongside the institutions now defining how digital assets integrate into global capital markets.
CEO commentary
Jean-Marie Mognetti, Co-Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of CoinShares, said:
"We have built this Company on a simple conviction: that digital assets belong inside regulated finance, managed with the same rigour as any other asset class. For more than a decade that was an unfashionable position. This recognition, in a ranking otherwise defined by the largest names in the United States, tells us the position was the right one. Our listing on the Nasdaq and our place on the Fortune Crypto 100 are two markers of the same trajectory: a European-built asset manager competing for a meaningful share of a market that is now firmly part of global finance. We are not finished. We were describing this future in 2013, before we had the words for it, and we intend to keep building it."
