Former LedgerPrime employees launch new digital asset hedge fund

Former LedgerPrime personnel have initiated Split Capital, a hedge fund focusing on long-term investments in liquid digital tokens. The venture was initiated by LedgerPrime alumni Zaheer Ebtikar and Michael Churchouse, along with Nai Boonkongkird. Shiliang Tang, the former chief investment officer at LedgerPrime, will advise the fund. Reported first by Fortune, Split Capital presents a unique approach to its investment strategy.

Azuki offers minor changes to similar NFTs after botched collection launch

The Azuki team has been under criticism this week for making up to 20,000 ether, up to $38 million worth, from the launch of a new 10,000 PFP Azuki Elementals collection that looked strikingly similar to the original. The new Elementals set even had various identical artworks with the original, which have since been changed by the team. The team explained that the identical items were due to an “ETH block glitch.”  As for the artworks that looked similar but not identical, Azuki announced yesterday late at night — after a lengthy meeting on its Discord — that it will soon give the option for holders to vote on some changes that may be added to alter their appearance.  The changes proposed, however, will only involve changing the background color and adding some elements — the artwork will mostly remain the same. Some holders were evidently not happy with this news.  “What an absolute joke,” one Twitter user wrote in response to the news. “Put i...
