Investment funds play not even the last role in the blockchain industry. Sometimes they even set the trends for the whole cryptocurrency market.

Jake Ryan who is the General Manager at
Tradecraft Capital.
Please share your thoughts about the future of your fund in the blockchain world?At Tradecraft Capital, we’re taking a “goldilocks” approach to investing in cryptoassets (i.e. not too hot, not too cold, just right). We think the risk profile of trying to venture invest in the very early stages of some of these crypto projects through ICOs is too risky or too hot. Most of the projects completing ICOs don’t have a product yet built let alone any product-market fit. We’ve already heard that more than 46% of ICOs from just 2017 have failed. So, we just don’t see the risk-adjusted return there. We also think the passive approach of investing in the top 10 largest cryptoassets is too cold; there’s just not enough upside for the risk taken. Instead, we’re looking at cryptoassets that would be considered “mid-cap” as they have a network value (market cap) of between $100m - $2b. These are projects that have some traction and some recognized growth, but still have plenty of upside. They are projects that are more than just copies of open-source blockchain projects; they are the next-generation cryptoassets that much of the latest blockchain infrastructure will be built upon. We see this approach as providing the best risk-adjusted returns in the blockchain space.
