3iQ adds Anchorage Digital as Sub-Custodian for its Digital Assets ETFs
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
TORONTO, Sept. 21, 2026 /CNW/ -- 3iQ Corp. ("3iQ"), a global pioneer in digital asset investment solutions and issuer of the 3iQ Bitcoin ETF, 3iQ Ether Staking ETF, 3iQ Solana Staking ETF, and 3iQ XRP ETF (collectively, the "Funds"), today announced that, effective September 21, 2026, Anchorage Digital, home to America's first federally regulated digital asset bank, has been added as an additional sub-custodian under the Funds' multi-custody arrangement. Tetra Trust remains the Funds' primary custodian and has played an instrumental role in the integration of Anchorage Digital as part of the Funds' expanded custody framework.
The addition follows the previously announced selection of Anchorage Digital as 3iQ's infrastructure and custody partner for its digital asset investment platform, and is intended to provide the Funds with additional institutional digital asset custody infrastructure, operational flexibility, and security controls appropriate for a publicly listed digital asset investment fund.
There is no change to the Funds' investment objectives, investment strategy, management fee, ticker symbols, or listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange as a result of the addition of Anchorage Digital as an additional sub-custodian. Units of the Funds will continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Nathan McCauley, CEO and Co-Founder of Anchorage Digital, said:
"3iQ helped pioneer regulated digital asset investing, and we're proud to deepen our partnership by serving as a sub-custodian for its ETFs. Publicly listed funds demand institutional-grade security and operational rigor -- that's exactly what Anchorage Digital was built to provide. We look forward to supporting 3iQ as it expands institutional access to digital assets."
Tommaso Mancuso, President and Chief Investment Officer of 3iQ, said: "Adding Anchorage Digital as an additional sub-custodian is an important operational milestone for the 3iQ ETFs. As digital asset investment products continue to mature, custody infrastructure remains central to investor protection, operational resilience, and long-term scalability. Anchorage Digital Bank, N.A. provides the regulated, institutional-grade infrastructure that aligns with the needs of the Funds and their unitholders."
3iQ will file a material change report in respect of the addition of Anchorage Digital as an additional sub-custodian to the Funds, which will be available under the Funds' profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
