贝恩资本周二宣布专门成立一个新的加密团队

贝恩资本(Bain Capital Ventures,简称BCV)周二宣布专门成立一个新的加密团队——贝恩资本加密基金(Bain Capital Crypto,简称BCC),由一支5.6亿美元的基金支持。 随着贝恩资本内部成立专门团队,致力于加密行业的风险投资基金数量本周有所增长。
BCC正在追随a16z的脚步
BCC资金规模达1550亿美元,是BCV规模最大的基金。根据周二晚间与该团队的谈话,BCC在加密生态部署了5.6亿美元资金,重点投资初期阶段的公司。
合伙人Stefan Cohen表示,“BCC已经运作了一年左右。BCV对加密行业并不陌生,投资组合中的公司包括BlockFi、Zero Hash、Risk Harbor和CoinDCX。”
Stefan Cohen自2016年以来一直担任BCV的合伙人,他表示,“贝恩资本认为需要成立一个专注于加密行业的团队,以在新兴的加密行业中增加竞争力。”
a16z成立了专门的加密团队,从某种意义上说,BCV正在追随a16z的脚步。另一方面,BCV不得不与Paradigm和Multicoin等大型加密行业风投公司以及Sequoia和Tiger等传统风投公司竞争。
"一年多以前,我们开始成立一个面向创始人的基金,以从初期帮助创始人成长,"Cohen补充说。"就关键的经济问题提供建议,与链上治理互动,提供流动性和质押。"
该基金的联合负责人亚历克斯·埃文斯(Alex Evans)说,该团队 "为我们提供了这样的结构"。
为此,鉴于加密市场的复杂性,该基金希望更多体现出"疯狂科学家"文化,而不是像传统的硅谷那样。
BCC不是传统的风险投资
Cohen表示,"加密货币风险投资与传统的软件投资不同:创始人和社区有一系列不同的需求,并且我们打算参与协议社区,代码级别的治理决策,并在我们感兴趣的基础设施上孵化项目。"
到目前为止,大型传统风投公司已经放弃在交易所交易的代币。一位女性发言人表示,贝恩还计划支持匿名创始人。投资规模将从100万美元到3000万美元不等。
新基金加入了近几个月融资的其他基金,包括Sequoia、Pantera和交易所FTX。随着不同的加密基金持续宣布成立,
然而,BCC周二宣布成立时并非毫无争议。一张全是男性的合影引发了网友的嘲笑和批评。周二晚间,合伙人Stefan Cohen道歉并承诺将雇佣女性、投资女性主导的项目。
BCC将大规模投资DAO
Cohen和Evans预计将大规模投资DAO。
虽然DAO已经存在多年,但在2021年,由于社区主导的病毒式公益事业(涉及购买一份罕见的美国宪法副本,或通过购买NFT支付维基解密创始人朱利安 · 阿桑奇的法律费用)的推动下,DAO在媒体中出现的比例大幅上升。在开发方面,DAO帮助管理Compound 到Uniswap等DeFi协议。
"随着Web3叙述的发展,出现了很多更具包容性的DAO。有文化底蕴的DAO,可以游玩的DAO,感觉很直观,"Daily Ape的Darren Lau在最近一集The Scoop中指出。"人们只是想找个地方和朋友出去玩,有一个DAO似乎是当下最酷的方式。"
与此同时,DAO的扩张创造了投资机会,引起了像BCC等公司的兴趣。
BCC计划投资为DAO提供治理、支付和启动时间营销等相关工具和服务的公司。
在采访中,Cohen指出Tarun Chitra的Gauntlet是这一领域公司的一个例子,强调了该公司的自动化治理平台。"我们的生活和工作方式将继续演变,并创造一个纯粹的加密货币原生的经济增长飞轮,"Cohen说。
此外,Cohen补充说,“DAO开始像21世纪初B2B软件的样子。

Futu Hong Kong Lists BNB: A Counterattack in the Crypto Exchange Arena Amid Regulatory Pressures

Futu Securities, a long-established brokerage, has launched real-time BNB trading for Hong Kong's compliant professional investors, becoming the first licensed broker in the city to offer an order book trading pair for BNB. This expands its available cryptocurrencies to 21 mainstream coins, including BTC, ETH, and SOL. The move leverages its self-built PantherTrade platform, which complies with Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission standards. This strategic push into cryptocurrency trading comes as Futu faces significant regulatory pressures globally. In mainland China, authorities imposed a substantial fine and mandated a two-year wind-down period for its cross-border business with mainland investors. Concurrently, it faces lawsuits in the U.S. over alleged insider trading and was ordered by Japanese regulators to suspend new account openings for three months due to compliance failures. Amid these challenges in its traditional brokerage operations, Futu is seeking growth through its virtual asset services. It first received Hong Kong SFC approval for crypto trading in July 2024 and has since expanded these services to markets like Singapore and the U.S. In a further development this June, it gained approval to offer virtual asset margin financing in Hong Kong, allowing clients to use traditional securities as collateral for crypto trades. Futu's Q1 2026 results showed strong performance in its Hong Kong brokerage, with a dominant local market share. With mainland client assets declining, its Hong Kong crypto business is gaining strategic importance. This move marks a significant step in traditional brokerages competing directly with crypto exchanges for global capital flows.
