Investment Platform Yieldstreet Adds Crypto Access With Pantera Capital Partnership

Yieldstreet, an online platform offering investors access to alternative investments like real estate and art, has announced its first-ever crypto fund in partnership with noted venture capital firm Pantera Capital.

Investors would gain exclusive access via Yieldstreet to the Pantera Early Stage Token Fund I, which makes direct investments in pre-ICO tokens. Yieldstreet expects to raise approximately $20 million for the fund, a spokesperson told CoinDesk in an email.
Prior investments for the fund have included cross-chain interoperability platform Polkadot and Ethereum Virtual Machine Aurora.
New York-based Yieldstreet plans to launch additional offerings with exposure to the Pantera fund approximately every quarter to allow for repeat investments.
Founded in 2015, Yieldstreet said the platform has seen over $2.9 billion in investments from more than 360,000 investors.
Pantera was founded by Tiger Management alum Dan Morehead in 2003, and the firm had grown to $5.6 billion in assets under management by the end of last year. Its investment portfolio includes payments company Circle, crypto exchange Coinbase and Ripple, issuer of the XRP cryptocurrency.
