[English Translation] A hedge fund secretly began investing in Bitcoin

Even just skimming articles like this makes me think, “We’re still so far from done…,” which gives me hope.

Let’s read the translation right away.

Hedge funds quietly begin investing in Bitcoin

Bitcoin’s price has grown by up to 180% this year. Meanwhile, hedge funds have on average generated only about 3.5% returns. Most hedge fund managers have avoided Bitcoin. However, a small number of funds that have dealt with Bitcoin are delivering results that outpace their rivals.

Hedge funds’ average return this year: 3.5%

A hedge fund is an investment fund that serves eligible or institutional investors as clients. Compared with mutual funds, regulation of hedge funds is looser, because they are not bound by the strict rules intended to protect investors. Some funds are not even registered with financial regulators or required to submit public reports.

Investments in hedge funds are restricted only by each fund’s own authority. They invest in everything—land, real estate, currencies, and more—in order to maximize returns to investors while keeping risk in check.
