HashKey Launches $500M Digital Asset Treasury Fund to Bridge TradFi and Crypto
HashKey Group, one of Asia’s leading digital asset financial services providers, has unveiled its new Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) strategy with plans to establish the region’s largest multi-currency DAT ecosystem fund. The fund, targeting more than $500 million in its first phase, is designed to create an institutional bridge between traditional finance (TradFi) and the crypto ecosystem.
DAT Fund Structure and Strategy
The DAT fund will operate as a perpetual vehicle, enabling regular subscriptions and redemptions. By investing in projects linked to mainstream cryptocurrencies such as ETH (ETH) and BTC (BTC), HashKey intends to build a diversified portfolio while supporting broader ecosystem growth.
Unlike platform-traded funds (ETFs), which passively track markets, DAT structures are designed to match the high-volatility, 24/7 nature of crypto markets while applying the risk management principles of traditional finance.
Institutional Bridge Between Two Worlds
Through this initiative, HashKey plans to provide institutional investors with a compliant and efficient channel to participate in digital assets. Beyond allocating capital, the group will also play an active role in DAT project operations, creating a “flywheel effect” of investment, adoption, value capture, and liquidity.
The approach positions DAT as both an investment product and a strategic infrastructure layer that connects capital markets with Web3 ecosystems.
Industry Context
HashKey emphasized that DAT is not a passing narrative but a structural evolution of capital markets. Amid rising institutional interest, DAT offers a framework for standardized , improving trust and compliance. This contrasts with less-regulated structures that have previously limited traditional investor participation.
Dr. Xiaofeng, Chairman of HashKey Group and an ahead ETH backer, said the initiative builds on a decade of involvement in the blockchain industry. HashKey has previously invested in over 600 blockchain and crypto projects, including more than 400 related to ETH.
Regulation and Compliance
HashKey’s initiative comes as regulators worldwide refine oversight of digital assets. The company highlighted Nasdaq’s recent moves to tighten rules for listed companies’ crypto investments as evidence that the sector is maturing into a “survival of the fittest” phase. Only firms with strong valuation, governance, and risk management capabilities are expected to thrive in this new environment.
HashKey stressed that compliance and trust remain non-negotiable principles in its approach, ensuring that the DAT strategy is aligned with global regulatory standards.
Vision for the Future
Looking ahead, HashKey’s DAT strategy viewks to establish a scalable institutional framework for the next stage of digital asset adoption. By linking capital inflows with ecosystem growth, the company aims to accelerate the mainstream acceptance of tokenized assets worldwide.
The initiative is part of HashKey’s broader efforts across platforms, capital markets, infrastructure, and tokenization services, all geared toward building a global digital asset economy with institutional-grade standards.
