SORA Ventures announced the launch of Asia’s first Bitcoin Finance Fund during Taipei Blockchain Week.
Bringing backed by $200 million commitments from local partners and investors, the fund aims to acquire $1 billion worth of Bitcoin over the next six months.
BTC Financial Fund
Unlike existing individual financing companies in Asia, such as Japan’s Metaplanet, Hong Kong’s Moon Company, Thailand’s DoV8, and Korea’s Bitplanet, the Solaventure Fund acts as a central pool of organizational capital as it holds Bitcoin directly on its own balance sheet. The company’s main purpose is to encourage the development of new BTC Treasury Ministry around the world, while supporting these existing companies.
In an official press release, Sora Ventures also said the fund will focus on creating “a synergy between the regional and national finance ministry” to strengthen the role of BTC as a reserve asset across the market.
The management team at SORA Ventures is tasked with leading the fund, attracting new institutional investors and collaborators, and strengthening the Bitcoin Treasury network in Asia. This initiative will help connect existing and emerging finance companies, increase the capital available, and foster a more integrated ecosystem for corporate BTC holdings across the region.
Bitcoin Big League Asia
While the largest Bitcoin Treasury and corporate recruitment has historically been US-centric, Asia is now stepping up as a major player in the facility’s Bitcoin market. That aspect was commented on Jason Fang, founder and managing partner of Sora Ventures.
“Asia is one of the most important markets for the development of blockchain technology and Bitcoin. While interest is growing from institutions investing in the Bitcoin Treasury in the US and EU, efforts are relatively fragmented in Asia.
Metaplanet continues to lead Asia’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder, with the recent addition of 1,009 BTC to reach a total of 20,000 BTC. Meanwhile, another Asian player, Taiwan listed Wiselink, became the first company to adopt Bitcoin’s financial strategy.
