The seed funding comes as the firm introduced a cryptocurrency index fund, called Bitwise HOLD 10 Private Index Fund.
The new fund will focus on the top 10 crypto assets by market capitalisation. The vehicle will rebalance once every month, capitalising on hard forks and airdrops.
“As cryptocurrencies become more mainstream, a private index fund, like Bitwise, is an incredibly important step to simplifying the complexities in the space and making it more accessible. The Bitwise founders have done an exceptional job bringing world-class crypto experts onto their team to create a long-lasting financial institution,” Rabois said.
