Breaking into Crypto: Japanese Game Developer Launches Fund

The world of cryptocurrency is expanding, and everyday people are taking notice. With the rise of Passive Income opportunities, individuals are looking for ways to earn online. Japanese game developer Gumi is making waves in the industry with the launch of a Bitcoin and altcoin fund, valued at 3 billion yen (approximately $18.3 million). This venture is a significant step towards bridging the gap between Japan’s corporate sector and the crypto market.

Gumi’s growing crypto business is centered around XRP, with the company nearly doubling its crypto holdings over the past year. The new fund, operated by SBI Crypto Fund, will invest primarily in Bitcoin and major altcoins, utilizing strategies such as staking, portfolio rebalancing, and hedging. This move is part of Gumi’s efforts to build an operational track record ahead of a possible future lifting of Japan’s ban on crypto exchange-traded funds.
