I’ve noticed T212 list far more entries in their search results for Bitcoin. I know this is a grey area for investing, but why aren’t IE listing any options? I don’t want blockchain companies but a physical ETF

@Sjcsystems: I don’t think you can invest in those even with T212.

Retail investors are still prohibited from investing directly into bitcoin products in the UK.

At present, these are reserved to professional clients only.

The FCA is currently undergoing a review of this asset class with the view to open it up to retail investors towards the end of the year.

This is something InvestEngine is looking into on a weekly basis.

When these products are available for retail investors, we will be one of the first platforms to make this available.

FCA has approved crypto ETNs as from 8 October 2025. Any plans on making it available on your platform.  
I’m sure providing a crypto ETN on your platform will bring a strong flow of ISA transfers from Vanguard 🙂
