[lingriiddd]

Nomura’s digital asset arm, Laser Digital, is launching the Bitcoin Diversified Yield Fund (BDYF), a new investment product aimed at institutional investors seeking returns beyond simple Bitcoin price exposure. Unlike traditional long-only Bitcoin funds, BDYF uses diversified, market-neutral strategies to generate yield while maintaining Bitcoin exposure.

The fund will be actively managed, with Kaio providing tokenization and Komainu serving as custodian. It’s exclusively available to institutional and accredited investors. According to CEO Jez Mohideen, the product responds to growing demand for yield-focused crypto funds, particularly in volatile markets, and represents a step forward in the evolution of crypto asset management.

tokenization + komainu custody is smart. regulatory clarity is still key for adoption.
