Bitcoin development firm Blockstream is launching three investment funds, two of which will focus on crypto lending. One fund will underwrite Bitcoin-backed loans, while another will allow for crypto borrowing with US dollars as collateral. The company also plans to deploy hedge fund strategies with its third fund. Blockstream has reportedly secured several billion dollars in funding for these funds. The funds will go live in April, with external capital accepted starting in July. Blockstream recently opened a new office in Tokyo as it aims to drive adoption of Bitcoin Layer-2 technology and tokenization of real-world assets in Japan.
