In particular, the move to launch two crypto funds is a result of collaboration between CPIC Investment Management and investment firm Waterdrip Capital.
It is worth noting that, on April 3rd, Waterdrip Capital took to Twitter to confirm the news.
In the announcement, Waterdrip Capital cited the Hong Kong government's recent crypto-friendly stance as the primary motivation behind the establishment of these joint crypto funds.
Based on the report, the first of the two funds, Pacific Waterdrip Digital Asset Fund I, will function as a venture capital fund with a focus on early-stage blockchain projects.
Meanwhile, Pacific Waterdrip Digital Asset Fund II is designed to manage proof-of-stake (PoS) digital assets. Both funds will predominantly cater to institutional investors and wealthy private investors.
Waterdrip Capital, a global investment firm founded in 2017, has a track record of actively backing blockchain-related projects and cryptocurrency startups. The company is known for supporting the Chinese cryptocurrency mining sector and investing in innovative projects like a decentralized Web3 network Peaq.
This move by a state-backed firm highlights the evolving stance of the Chinese government on the cryptocurrency industry, offering new opportunities for growth and innovation within the sector.
