Laser Digital launches NEAR Adoption Fund for Institutional Investors
Laser Digital, a subsidiary of Nomura, has introduced a new investment fund aimed at boosting institutional adoption of NEAR. This fund offers long-term exposure to NEAR, the native token of the AI-focused blockchain, NEAR Protocol.
Following the success of its bitcoin adoption fund in September 2023, Laser Digital is now expanding its offerings. The NEAR Adoption Fund will be supported by TruStake, a staking solution by TruFin. This allows investors to participate in blockchain consensus and earn rewards.
Laser Digital CEO Jez Mohideen stated, “This fund provides a seamless way for investors to engage with digital assets, combining AI and blockchain themes, with added value through staking.”
The fund targets institutional investors in select regions, excluding the U.S. it aims to support NEAR Protocol’s growth, which focuses on decentralized AI, Chain Abstraction, and sharded blockchain technology.
NEAR Protocol is at the forefront of AI and web3 developments. Its key features, endorsed by the Ethereum Foundation, make it a promising investment. The fund will be available in customary formats and through wealth management platforms after registration.
