A Push for Asian Bitcoin Treasury Adoption
The fund builds on Sora Ventures’ strategy of backing firms in Asia that are experimenting with corporate Bitcoin allocations. In 2023, the firm supported Japanese investment company Metaplanet, which made its first ¥1 billion ($6.5 million) Bitcoin purchase. Since then, Sora has extended support to Hong Kong’s Moon Inc., Thailand’s DV8, and South Korea’s BitPlanet, in a bid to replicate U.S.-style corporate Bitcoin treasury strategies across Asia.
Scaling Beyond the U.S. and Europe
Until now, large-scale Bitcoin treasury activity has been largely concentrated in the U.S., led by MicroStrategy, and in parts of Europe. Sora Ventures’ fund signals a shift in momentum, positioning Asia as the next frontier for institutional Bitcoin adoption.
“This marks the first time Asia has seen a commitment of this magnitude to building a network of Bitcoin treasury firms, with capital allocated toward the region’s first $1 billion treasury fund,”
said Luke Liu, Partner at Sora Ventures.
Growing Corporate Bitcoin Exposure in Asia
Regional companies continue to expand their Bitcoin holdings. Metaplanet recently gained shareholder approval to issue up to 555 million new shares, with proceeds earmarked for further Bitcoin purchases. The company’s total Bitcoin stash now exceeds 20,000 BTC, ranking it as the world’s sixth-largest corporate holder.
Notably, BlockSpaceForce, a crypto-native advisory firm, has launched Asia’s first evergreen hedge fund focused on “blockstocks”, publicly traded companies integrating digital assets into their core business models. Structured under a Singapore-licensed variable capital company (VCC), the fund has already seeded itself with proprietary capital and is targeting more than $100 million in assets under management.
