Could you elaborate on the key differences between a crypto exchange Traded Product (ETP) and a 'crypto Exchange Traded Note' (ETN)? As I understand, both are financial instruments that allow investors to trade cryptocurrencies indirectly, but what sets them apart? Does the ETP provide direct ownership of the underlying crypto assets, whereas the ETN might be a debt instrument backed by the issuing bank? Also, how do their risk profiles compare? Are there any tax implications or regulatory differences that investors should be aware of? Clarifying these nuances would be greatly appreciated.

A prime example of a crypto ETN is the XBT Provider Bitcoin Tracker One (COINXBT). This product enables investors to gain exposure to the Bitcoin market while adhering to EU regulatory requirements.

Similarly, 21Shares offers a Bitcoin ETP (ABTC) that functions similarly to an ETN. It tracks the price movements of Bitcoin while operating within the legal framework of European financial markets.

Due to the stringent fund regulations in the European Union, investors often turn to 'crypto ETPs' (Exchange Traded Products), 'crypto ETNs' (Exchange Traded Notes), or 'crypto ETCs' (Exchange Traded Commodities) as alternatives to direct crypto ownership.
