Former employees of crypto trading firm LedgerPrime have launched a new hedge fund focused on liquid tokens.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"3:1-3:112\">You might like: <a href=\"https:\/\/coinengineer.net\/blog\/dogecoin-price-signals-uptrend-doge-analysis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em><strong>Dogecoin Price Signals Uptrend! DOGE Analysis!<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"5:1-5:233\">The fund, called Split Capital, was founded by former LedgerPrime employees Zaheer Ebtikar and Michael Churchouse, along with Nai Boonkongkird. Shiliang Tang, LedgerPrime&#8217;s former chief investment officer, will serve as a consultant.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"7:1-7:277\">&#8220;It&#8217;s been a long time coming, but I&#8217;m excited to announce the official launch of Split Capital, our liquid digital asset fund,&#8221; Ebtikar said in a statement on Friday. &#8220;Split Capital has been a concept in my mind for years, and it&#8217;s a dream to see it finally come to fruition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"9:1-9:199\">Key backers of the new fund include Novi Loren, UTXO Management, and Dan Matuszewski, co-founder of CMS Holdings. Split Capital is not disclosing the size of the fund, citing regulatory restrictions.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"11:1-11:45\">Fortune first reported the news early Friday.<\/p>\n<h2 data-sourcepos=\"13:1-13:18\"><span style=\"font-size: 75%;\">Long-Term View (LedgerPrime)<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"15:1-15:351\">According to Ebtikar, Split Capital&#8217;s investment strategy will involve taking a longer-term view on token investments, rather than selling digital assets as soon as they become liquid, which is a common strategy among many venture capital firms active in crypto. The new fund is aimed at investors who are willing to invest for the long term, he said.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"17:1-17:178\">Ebtikar pointed to a recommendation he and his team made in December 2022 to buy Solana, Lido, and Synapse as an example of the types of token types Split Capital could focus on.<\/p>\n<p data-sourcepos=\"19:1-19:273\">FTX, the defunct crypto exchange, acquired LedgerPrime in 2021. According to his LinkedIn profile, Ebtikar worked as a portfolio manager for a year before leaving in September 2023. Churchouse was also working on the DeFi investment team at Nickel Digital Asset Management.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\">\n<div class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\">\n<p class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\"><em class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\">Also, you can freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
