Electric Capital venture fund raised $110 million from university endowments and other nonprofits to invest in cryptocurrencies, Bloomberg reported.
The company has started with investing $35 million in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum and blockchain projects.
However, it seems the focus this time will be directed towards other crypto assets.
“Bitcoin and Ethereum are a minority of the fund. Our thoughts are more toward Defi protocols, apps built on top of this stuff,” said the co-founder of Electric Capital, Avichal Garg.
