Abstract: Abstract This chapter provides an introduction to the role of crypto-asset managers that make direct investments into cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. It begins by providing an overview of key crypto fund terminology as well as the motivations for investors to allocate capital to external crypto managers. As part of this conversation, we discuss difference between retail investors and crypto fund managers. Next, we discuss the importance of developing a crypt fund launch plan and timeline and the six major steps in launching a crypto fund including developing an investment strategy, raising capital from investors and hiring service providers including the law firm and accounting firm. We also discuss considerations related to obtaining required potential individual and crypto fund regulatory registrations as well as post-launch considerations.
