Cryptology Asset Group (ISIN: MT0001770107; Ticker: CAP:GR), a leading European investment firm specializing in blockchain and cryptocurrency ventures, announced plans to invest $100 million over the next 24 months into crypto-focused venture capital funds. Founded by Christian Angermayer and Mike Novogratz, the company adopts an entrepreneurial approach to curating its fund portfolio.
Strategic Focus on Emerging Talent
Cryptology will prioritize newly established funds and emerging managers globally, including seed funds and general partnership (GP) stakes.
Christian Angermayer, Cryptology’s founder, stated:
"The crypto revolution is just beginning. Our strategy targets rising talent, investing in funds that hold equity in blockchain/crypto companies or direct crypto assets and tokens—all with a global lens."
Unparalleled Growth Metrics
Cryptology’s CEO Patrick Lowry highlighted the asset class’s potential:
"Cryptocurrencies represent the ultimate investment frontier. Our NAV surged from €27 million to €450 million (as of June 2021) in under three years, delivering a 300% annualized IRR. We aim to sustain this momentum for decades."
The firm’s fund strategy includes active collaboration with portfolio funds, offering access to Cryptology’s network and co-investment opportunities in innovative blockchain projects.
Unique Market Position
As one of the few publicly traded crypto investment firms (listed on German exchanges under CAP:GR), Cryptology provides retail and institutional investors exposure to typically private assets. For example, its holdings include Block.one (developer of EOSIO software) and its Bullish exchange.
