Epoch Partners Ltd. to Launch World’s First Retail Public Offering of a Digital Assets
With the world embracing the use of cryptos and several major financial institutions exploring various ways through which they can adopt the use of blockchain technology into their preexisting technology. Epoch Partners Limited (Headquartered in the Cayman Islands) has made an announcement, that it will be launching the world’s first retail public offering of digital assets and cryptocurrency related fund, Epoch Digital Assets
Epoch Digital Assets
Epoch Partners Limited has made it known that it will be capitalizing on its wealth of experience in hedge fund management as well as targeting its massive workforce towards the success of this project. The company plan on investing in funds and other investment vehicles with exposure to a variety of cryptocurrency, initial coin offering (ICO), and other digital assets. The company has also made it known that its trading ideology will be centered on seeking aggressive returns while reducing volatility.
There are several major investment houses exploring the use case of cryptocurrency, however with Epoch Digital Assets being the first public offering of its kind. The success or failure of the innovation will likely have a significant impact on Epoch Partners Limited’s future.
Pertaining to this project, a spokesperson from Epoch Partners Limited, James Skinner has this to say:
“Japan has been a leader in the cryptocurrency and digital asset space. They were the first market to create a proper regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies, and as such can be seen as the world pioneer in this area. We were very keen to undertake the world’s first public offering of a cryptocurrency fund in Japan and look forward to great things ahead. The asset class is still young, but the movement to more institutional players like Goldman Sachs and Nomura entering the space shows the great potential of this area. In the future, digital assets are likely to become an integrated part of investment portfolios, similar to equities and fixed income products today, albeit on a smaller scale.”
Risk Involved
Even though this is a welcomed development and the positive impact of this on the world’s cryptocurrency community is huge, this move still at a great risk to Epoch Partners Limited. This is simply because the digital asset industry has been identified to be quite volatile, so the risk of everything going south is still imminent.
