Cryptocurrency asset management company Grayscale unveiled the launch of the Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund, which is now open to qualified investors.
The fund’s strategy is based on three primary types of decentralized AI assets, such as protocols creating decentralized AI services like chatbots and image-generation tools, and solutions dealing with the issues of centralized AI, such as verifying authenticity against bots, deep fakes and misinformation. In addition, it features protocols creating AI infrastructure, encompassing decentralized marketplaces for data storage, GPU computation, 3D rendering, as well as streaming services.
The fund stands among the first securities to be exclusively invested in and derive value from the price of native tokens of decentralized AI protocols. It offers investors access through security, eliminating the challenges related to directly buying, storing, and safeguarding digital currencies.
Shares are created to mirror the values of the Fund Components, determined by their respective Digital Asset Reference Rates and Weightings, minus fees and expenses. The Fund Components include digital assets chosen according to the Fund Methodology implemented by the Manager, and the Fund undergoes periodic rebalancing to maintain its strategy.
