The fund will be natively tokenized through the institutional-grade tokenization platform KAIO and will be custodied by Komainu, a joint venture custody institution of Nomura, CoinShares, and Ledger. The product is only open to specific qualified investors in qualified jurisdictions such as non-U.S. regions, with a minimum subscription amount of $250,000 or the equivalent in Bitcoin.
