DARMA Capital

Basics

• From this CoinDesk article (6-6-2019)

"DARMA (Digital Asset Risk Management Advisors) Capital is a CFTC-regulated firm, as well as a member of the National Futures Association, with $100 million in assets under management for its Ether Optimized Long fund, Andrew Keys said in a blog post. The idea behind the ether long fund is it will accumulate more ether as time goes on, thereby generating a return for the fund’s investors. While DARMA is starting with an ether long fund, the firm plans to launch a bitcoin long fund in the coming months, with a third fund based on filecoin sometime next year. Said Keys:

“We believe [those tokens] will be the components of the next-generation internet and essentially there is a new asset class in what I would call crypto commodities. So we’re not interested at the application layer, we’re interested in the protocols that many different applications will use.”"
