At Taipei Blockchain Week, Sora Ventures unveiled a $1 billion Bitcoin fund aimed at boosting its adoption among corporate treasuries in Asia.
Fund Goals and Significance
Founder Jason Fang announced the establishment of a fund to accelerate Bitcoin's introduction in the corporate sector. The fund has already secured $200 million from institutional partners across the region, with plans to acquire $1 billion worth of Bitcoin within six months.
Bitcoin Market in Asia and Its Development
The fund aims to address the fragmented adoption of Bitcoin in Asia, where efforts lag behind those in the U.S. and Europe. Sora Ventures has already invested in several companies engaged in corporate treasury operations, including Japan’s Metaplanet and South Korea’s BitPlanet. Metaplanet holds the title of Asia's largest corporate Bitcoin holder with 20,000 BTC.
Corporate Treasury Trends Worldwide
Sora's announcement reflects broader trends in corporate Bitcoin adoption that are gaining traction in 2025. Research indicates that over 90 public companies globally now hold Bitcoin, underscoring the increasing acceptance of Bitcoin in traditional finance. Corporate strategies aimed at inflation hedging and portfolio diversification contribute to the rising interest in these assets.
The creation of the Bitcoin fund by Sora Ventures in Asia potentially sets a new precedent for further institutional adoption of cryptocurrency in the region.
