Sora Ventures Launches $1 Billion Bitcoin Treasury Fund in Asia
Sora Ventures has announced the launch of what it says is Asia’s first Bitcoin treasury fund, unveiled this week at Taipei Blockchain Week. The fund is backed by $200 million in commitments from regional investors and aims to purchase $1 billion worth of Bitcoin within six months, according to a company press release. Institutional Push Toward Bitcoin The initiative marks a shift in the geography of institutional Bitcoin investment, which has been largely concentrated in the United States. The Sora fund will pool capital from institutional backers and allocate it toward building and supporting treasury reserves across Asia. Unlike firms that hold Bitcoin directly on their own balance sheets, the fund will serve as a centralised vehicle for coordinated investment. Sora Ventures has played a role in developing regional treasuries over the past two years. In 2024, the firm invested in Japan’s Metaplanet after it allocated ¥1 billion (about $6.6 million) to Bitcoin. In 2025, Sora acquired Hong Kong’s Moon Inc. and Thailand’s DV8 and partnered in acquiring South Korea’s BitPlanet. Each transaction aimed to replicate a treasury model in which corporate reserves are held in Bitcoin. Building a Regional Network Company leaders said the new fund is intended to strengthen connections among Asian treasuries and expand them globally. Jason Fang, managing partner at Sora Ventures, said the effort brings together institutional investors across local, regional and global levels in a way that has not previously happened in Asia. Luke Liu, a partner at the firm, described the commitment as the largest of its kind in the region. The fund, according to its backers, is designed to support both existing treasury firms and new entrants while drawing in additional institutional partners. Asia’s Expanding Role The move comes as Asia seeks to establish a stronger foothold in the market for corporate Bitcoin adoption. While companies such as MicroStrategy in the U.S. have become notable holders of the cryptocurrency, efforts in Asia have remained fragmented. Sora Ventures’ treasury fund represents an attempt to unify these initiatives under a coordinated investment structure. Analysts say the effort underscores a broader shift in Bitcoin adoption, as governments and institutions across Asia explore ways to integrate the asset into reserve strategies. The launch of a dedicated $1 billion fund signals that institutional players in the region are preparing to expand their role in the global Bitcoin market.
