Fidelity launched its crypto-focused institutional custody and trading platform Fidelity Digital Assets in 2018. The firm offers two exchange-traded crypto funds dedicated to the metaverse and digital payments, respectively.

The Fidelity Ethereum Index Fund is only available to accredited investors and will track the performance of the Fidelity Ethereum Index PR benchmark through passive, direct ownership of ether, a source familiar with the fund told CoinDesk. The new Ethereum fund is the second launched by Fidelity Digital Assets’ digital asset management business, following the 2020 launch of theWise Origin Bitcoin Index Fund I.

“As the marketplace for digital assets grows, Fidelity recognizes the need for a diverse set of products and solutions that help customers gain exposure in a manner that aligns with their distinct financial objectives and risk tolerance. We have continued to see client demand for exposure to digital assets beyond bitcoin,” a Fidelity spokesperson told CoinDesk in an email.

Last month,news brokethat Fidelity was considering offering crypto trading to its retail brokerage clients.

We Bleed Blue (Framed Original Painting)
"We Bleed Blue" was born on December 12, 1978 because Chicago Cubs fans are born not made. Like Ray Kinsella from the film "Field of Dreams", I'd left baseball in my past. But Wrigley Field and Cubbie Blue left a lasting impression in my heart, regardless of the mess between a father and son. Some of that mess was cleaned when I did a painting for my dad that was featured on SportsCenter's Top Plays - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VziuD5RKIs That magical moment of healing led to this painting. As such, locked inside, just behind the heart, an NFC chip will take viewers directly to the clip on Youtube if they hold their phone up to the painting. In the bottom right corner by my signature is a link back to the NFT on the blockchain. The collector will have to contact me via email to set up delivery of the framed original painting on canvas.

Things are not always as they seem. Living in poverty is like serving a sentence in a prison with invisible bars. The keys are in plain sight, yet impossible to reach.
