Purpose Investments Inc. (“Purpose”) is thrilled to announce the TMX Group will begin listing options around Purpose Ether ETF (“the ETF”) today on the Montréal Exchange.

Our goal is to continue to bring cryptocurrency into the mainstream by making Ether more accessible to investors, just as we did with Bitcoin.”
