Asia's first bitcoin asset fund Stack floats in Singapore

The index fund plans to capture $1.01b (US$750m) assets under management within 2020.

Cryptocurrency index fund provider Stack has launched Asia’s first institutional-grade Bitcoin asset fund in Singapore, according to a news release.

The index fund expects to capture $1.01b (US$750m) assets under management within 2020, and to exceed $2.7b (US$2b) in 2021. Stack’s partners include financial services providers, BitGo, Silvergate Bank, and Coin Metrics.

The launch comes after the demand from institutional investors for access to the digital asset economy increased. The new Bitcoin Index Fund (BTCX100) will give investors a flexible means to get into Bitcoin through a minimum investment of $100,000 at a 2.25% management fee. All Stack funds will offer secure custody with insurance coverage, weekly contributions, redemptions, and reporting.

Stack has also partnered with cryptocurrency audit and tax practice Cohen & Co. for auditing purposes, DRW’s crypto-asset trading firm, Cumberland, and a London-based insurance syndicate.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
