Notably, CoinShares’ total comprehensive income grew from £2.9 million ($3.6 million) in 2023 Q1 to £34.1 million ($42.8 million) in 2021 Q1.

The remaining £0.95 billion ($1.2 billion) is held in the newly acquired funds from Valkyrie and the BLOCK index.
CoinShares CEO Jean-Marie Mognetti lauded the report, noting that it reflected its commitment to growth and excellence.

Per the statement, 2021 Q1 represented CoinShares’ “strongest quarter ever.”
