Boris Hardi, Managing Partner of BITREAL Capital says: “Since summer of last year, questions of family offices and high net worth individuals as to how or in which virtual currencies, coins and tokens can be sensibly invested in or how to take part in the blockchain technology market potential without the high volatility and risk of total loss were raised. Our answer is the BREBCO 1 fund, which is now officially registered in Germany by the BaFin.”
