Frequently asked questions
How does Pangea Blockchain Fund source proprietary deal flow?
Pangea sources from its position inside Lugano's blockchain ecosystem, which includes proximity to foundations, protocol developers, and regulators in Switzerland's Crypto Valley. The fund also leverages networks in North American and European enterprise software circles where blockchain infrastructure companies emerge from academic labs and corporate R&D spinouts. No captive pipeline from a wealth origin or parent institution has been disclosed.
Does Pangea Blockchain Fund invest in tokens or only equity?
Pangea's disclosed posture is equity-focused, backing infrastructure companies rather than purchasing liquid tokens. The fund's confirmed positions — CySec and Securrency — are both equity investments in regulatory and security infrastructure firms serving digital-asset enterprises. The firm has not publicly disclosed any direct token treasury or liquid-crypto trading activity.
What investment stages does Pangea Blockchain Fund typically target?
The fund concentrates on Seed and Series A rounds, entering at the point where enterprise blockchain startups have a working product and early commercial traction with institutional clients. Pangea targets companies building custody, tokenization, and identity-layer infrastructure rather than consumer-facing Web3 applications.
Is Pangea Blockchain Fund structured as a traditional venture fund or something else?
Pangea operates as a closed-end private equity fund structure, domiciled in Switzerland and targeting a $200 million fund size. It follows standard venture capital terms for equity investments in early-stage companies, with a thematic restriction to enterprise blockchain rather than open-ended crypto exposure. No publicly listed vehicle or evergreen structure has been indicated by the firm.
