Investments
- Acala's aUSD Ecosystem Fund; Jump Crypto is one of the founding funds to grow the Acala stablecoin (23-3-2022)
- Bastion; part of the $9M Series A raise, announced on the same day as its token got launched (21-4-2022).
- Rift Protocol; mentioned as a backer on the Rift website (21-3-2022).
- Solana; part of a $314M raise with a token sale (9-6-2021).
- Terra; part of the $150M Ecosystem investment fund (16-7-2021). When the UST peg broke on the 9th of May 2022, Jump tried defending it, from a thread (16-5-2022):
"They used at least three addresses on Ethereum and spent $682.5M+ in various stablecoins. Basically, they were adding one-side liquidity in USDC since the Curve DAI/USDC/USDT pool was already imbalanced. Jump spent the minted LP tokens on the withdrawal of UST from the pool. Thus, they removed 593M UST from the pool, which should also positively affect the peg. However, even though there was 1.2B liquidity in the pool, UST's price quickly began to decrease.
Interestingly, Jump practically did not transfer UST to Terra for arbitrage until 10 pm on May 9. Then they transferred 588.6M and started swapping 745.6M UST for LUNA only on May 11. Of course, they did arbitrage before this day, but not on a large scale. At the same time, Jump performed Anchor liquidations and received at least 1.6M bLUNA. On May 12, Jump finished native swaps on Terra turning 640M UST into 221M LUNA. Received coins were delegated to 5 validators. They control 36% of the total staked LUNA."
