Subject to final regulatory approval for the grant of the Financial Services Permission (FSP), Token Bay brings niche capabilities to manage both token and equity investments in early-stage crypto start-ups under the FSRA’s Venture Capital Fund Manager (VCFM) framework.

Founded in 2021, Token Bay is a Crypto Venture Capital Fund that has adopted a regulatory-first approach from day one. Token Bay invests in start-ups building next-generation blockchain infrastructure and decentralized applications for Web3. Building on the success of its first fund, Token Bay is now launching its second fund and will continue to back outstanding entrepreneurs building infrastructure solutions for the new token economy.

In addition to Abu Dhabi, Token Bay also has offices in Hong Kong, and is strategically positioned across digital assets hubs in both the Middle East and Asia.

Founder and Managing Partner of Token Bay, Lucy Gazmararian stated, “This marks the first phase of global expansion for Token Bay, and we’re excited to have been granted the IPA in ADGM for venture capital investment in tokens as well as in equity. Blockchain technology has the potential to drive innovation through tokenization, and as blockchain networks continue to evolve, it is important that as venture capitalists we are fully equipped to support talented founders building in Web3 by directly participating in these networks and taking an ownership stake through tokens. We extend our sincerest thanks to the regulator for their forward-thinking approach and open dialogue so that we were able to reach this important milestone and establish Token Bay in one of the world’s leading international financial centers and digital assets hub.”

ADGM’s progressive regulatory framework, English common law legal framework, status as a leading centre for financial innovation and vibrant blockchain and digital assets ecosystem have attracted Token Bay to set up offices in the capital of the UAE.

Digital assets hedge fund with capital of $30 million sets up global headquarters in UAE

Digital assets hedge fund with capital of $30 million sets up global headquarters in UAE


backed by $30 million in capital. Triton Liquid a digital assets hedge fund, with its global headquarters in Abu Dhabi and has received an In-Principal Approval for an FSP, from the Financial Services Regulators (FSRA) of Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM).

As per ADGM press release, the launch will provide a best-in-class, tailored platform for Middle Eastern investors seeking to capitalize on the growth of blockchain technology and cryptocurrency adoption.

Seeded with $30M from Tier 1 VC, FJ Labs, Triton Liquid is backed by New York-based FJ Labs which has previously invested in Alibaba, Stripe, Revolut, Klarna and financial wellness company ABHI.

As the UAE emerges as a globally recognized centre for digital assets innovation and demand for tokens grows, Triton Liquid is poised to provide investors with access to token liquidity, rigorous data-driven digital assets analysis, and robust portfolio diversification.

Founded by MIT and Princeton alumni, Triton Liquid’s methodology combines fundamental venture capital (VC) principles with deep proprietary data analysis to invest in liquid tokens across the entire digital asset landscape. The result is a portfolio that generates venture-like returns with public markets’ liquidity.

Their investment edge is that they have built proprietary dashboards over the past two years that track relevant metrics across 24 digital asset verticals and combine it with ⁠VC-style due diligence with 20+ page deal memos for each project. Unlike traditional venture and equity investment models, where performance projects are based on retrospective quarterly or half-yearly earnings, Triton Liquid tracks live, open-source data, generating real-time insights and forecasts, equipping investors with far greater oversight and transparency.

This strategy was developed by their digital assets-native team that has built crypto products, decentralized exchanges, and digital asset hedge funds prior, where the fund partner has invested across three crypto investment cycles.

As of March 2024, Triton realized a 108% return since inception, after increasing their market exposure from 20% to 100% since November 2023.

Fabrice Grinda, Founder Partner at FJ Labs, comments; “Digital assets is the ultimate network effect business and a perfect complement to our core efforts. We believe that Triton’s proprietary evaluation process will offer venture-style returns in this emerging asset class, and we are delighted to be part of the Triton story in ADGM’s burgeoning digital assets ecosystem.”

Chris Keshian, Founder and CIO of Triton Liquid – and formerly FJ Labs’ Head of Liquid Digital Assets – is the architect of the fund and its liquid token strategy. Based in Abu Dhabi, Chris will be responsible for building and scaling operations in the region and driving the overall growth of the business.

Chris a true digital asset native, has been an active investor and trader in the cryptocurrency space since 2013. In 2014, he co-founded the first fiat gateway onto Ethereum, showcasing his acute understanding of emerging blockchain technologies. Building on this success, Chris further established a long/short cryptocurrency-focused hedge fund in San Francisco in 2016. Today, he is bringing his extensive experience to Abu Dhabi’s thriving digital assets ecosystem

Chris Keshian, Founder and Chief Investment Officer at Triton Liquid says: “The liquid digital assets market has evolved rapidly over the last ten years, and now sits at the cross-section of venture investing and public equity investing. Most projects are early stages but have an actively traded token that represents ownership or value accrual for the company. As such, through applying a venture style research process with a public equity style data due diligence and rebalancing process, we have created a strategy which we believe provides the best exposure to the growth and liquidity of this asset class.”

“The UAE is undoubtedly becoming the global hub for digital assets and the broader DeFi industry,” Chris adds. “The fintech ecosystem in the UAE is more vibrant than ever, and we look forward to playing an active role in its continued evolution. The UAE’s visionary leadership, financial services pedigree and constant drive for fintech innovation make this market a perfect fit for us. Our launch today marks a major milestone for our company and a crucial inflection point in our growth journey, one which we are delighted to share with our partners at ADGM.”

In an interview with Zawya, Keshian stated, “We invest in projects on a category basis. I assess 12 projects that are all competing and trying to do the same thing, then I would decide which of these will win and invest accordingly.” Investments so far include Synthetix – a derivatives liquidity protocol for derivatives trading in decentralized finance – and blockchain platform Solana.

He concludes when asked why he chose UAE, “It will be one of the three jurisdictions along with Hong Kong and Singapore that capture the lion’s share of entrepreneurs and people and funds who want this to see this become a real asset class,” Keshian said.

XVC is an Investment Company based out of Dubai with a focus on early-stage investments in Next-Gen technology projects backed by XDC Network’s founders. XVC Tech has a global investment mandate to invest across Web3 native projects as well as Web2 to Web3 transformation projects

As per the press release published earlier this year, the investment underscores the shared vision and strategic alignment between XVC Tech and Swiftcourt as they join forces to transform the landscape of digital transactions and P2P transactions. SwiftCourt will utilize the XDC Blockchain Network which would enable transactions to be safe, more efficient, transparent, and secure to users worldwide.

With the vision of making second-hand trade as safe as purchases made in stores, Swiftcourt has been gaining recognition in Europe with its long-standing contract platform, and its recent release of a PSD2-compliant P2P payment service for buying and selling used goods to speed up transfer times and cut costs for distributors and end users.

Relying on bank-grade KYC and utilizing escrow accounts to safeguard transactions, Swiftcourt can ensure that neither party falls victim to fraud. With added blockchain capabilities, Swiftcourt will now utilize XDC’s smart contract features to further automate contract fulfillment and release funds to make the solution even more secure.

SwiftCourt has established a presence across Norway, Sweden, Germany, and Finland and has captured the market share of the Nordic region catering to 1.4 Million customers.

XDC Network, an enterprise-grade Layer 1, EVM Compatible Blockchain Network, will serve as the backbone to seal and verify the contract using a Simple Electronic Seal. The contract would be co-signed between two parties on SwiftCourt’s platform using a cryptographic hash and wrapping reference and later can be used to verify the signed contract on the XDC Network with the cryptographic hash.

Johan Lundberg, Founding Partner at XVC Tech, comments “We are thrilled to support Swiftcourt in its mission to revolutionize peer-to-peer transactions, and incorporating blockchain for documentation aligns perfectly with our investment vision of utilizing blockchain technology to ensure transparency and security. This infusion of capital will enable Swiftcourt to offer its solutions in new markets such as Asia while the access to XDC blockchain will bolster its tech stack and introduce cutting-edge smart contract technology.”

“Recent market changes have pinpointed clear market gaps in terms of fintech capabilities aimed at circular economies, and those fit perfectly with Swiftcourt’s vision. This new infusion of capital means that we can take on these challenges, but in turn brings some major changes and a highly ambitious roadmap that will require our full attention. This split of responsibilities allows for that and will hopefully enable us to share some more exciting news, very, very soon.” says Sofia Malmberg, Co-CEO.

After Europe, SwiftCourt is now planning an APAC expansion by offering its digital contract and P2P solutions to growing economies such as India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka.
