Laxman Pai, Opalesque Asia:

Amsys Capital has announced the launch of its first Digital Asset Fund. The actively-managed hedge fund seeks to manage growth within a volatile crypto-currency market.

According to a release from the company, the Amsys Digital Asset Fund's goal is to actively manage exposure and volatility and compound gain within the digital market.

The Houston-based company said that cryptocurrency & blockchain technology are one of the largest breakthroughs in 'money' since ledgers were invented. "We have not had a breakthrough like this for centuries. For example, a large percentage of the population does not currently have bank accounts due to obscure locations and bank fees. Millions of people will now be able to have accounts all over the world very easily."

"Blockchain and crypto assets may revolutionize how we transact business in the future - because it offers new simple ways to accumulate, govern, store, record, track and transfer value and data."

"The Amsys Digital Asset Fund aims to harness the transformational elements of this new monetary and technological invention and provide investors exposure to this new type of asset class." said Shezad Kapadia - CEO of Amsys Capital.
