In the announcement, DigitalX executive director Leigh Travers said that after talking to general investors and market participants, it became clearer that there is a "growing interest in accessing bitcoin from people who have traditionally not considered investment in digital assets".
The company will kick off the fund by providing 215 out of its 431 BTC with an investment value of about US$1.89 million at current prices, with an aim to grow the investment vehicle and funds under management.
