Trusted by The Industry
Trusted by Digital Asset Managers and Allocators
“The allocators we engage with on Violet ask the right questions for our asset class. That reflects the institutional character of the LP base and makes our IR conversations more substantive than what we find through other sourcing channels.”

Digital Asset Fund
“We can apply filters around regulatory registration and custody structure before scheduling any calls. That kind of pre-qualification is not available through other sourcing channels and makes the process workable for a program with institutional requirements.”

“The LPs we meet through Violet are already engaged with the asset class at an institutional level. That shifts the conversation toward manager evaluation rather than first principles, which is where we want to be spending time in our IR process.”

Common Questions
Digital Assets Frequently Asked Questions
What are digital assets in institutional investing?
Digital assets are cryptocurrencies, blockchain-native tokens, and related on-chain instruments held as institutional investments. Institutional strategies span crypto-native long-only, digital asset venture (equity in the underlying companies), market-neutral crypto trading, tokenization of real-world assets, and blockchain infrastructure. Allocators access digital assets through funds, separately managed accounts, and increasingly through registered products.
How is digital asset investing different from traditional alternatives?
Digital asset markets trade 24/7, custody involves specialized digital asset custodians, and regulatory frameworks are still evolving in most jurisdictions. Return and volatility profiles are meaningfully higher than traditional alternatives. However, institutional allocators are now applying the same diligence rigor, operational infrastructure, and portfolio construction discipline to digital assets as they do to other alternatives sleeves.
What returns do digital asset funds target?
Return targets vary widely by sub-strategy. Long-only crypto strategies target directional appreciation, with volatility significantly higher than public equity. Digital asset venture targets venture-like returns (25%+ IRR for top quartile) on the equity of underlying blockchain, custody, and infrastructure companies. Market-neutral crypto strategies target absolute returns in the high single digits to low teens with tightly managed volatility.
Who invests in institutional digital assets?
A growing cohort of institutional allocators including family offices, endowments, foundations, sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, and insurance companies. Family offices have historically led on digital asset allocations, and pension and endowment participation has grown meaningfully. On iConnections, allocator searches for digital asset managers have increased sharply.
What are the main digital asset sub-strategies?
Long-only crypto (directional exposure to bitcoin, ether, and select others), digital asset venture (equity in blockchain-native companies), market-neutral crypto (basis, funding-rate, and cross-venue arbitrage), tokenization of real-world assets (private credit, real estate, treasuries on-chain), and blockchain infrastructure (validators, mining, custody, staking).
How do LPs find digital asset managers on iConnections?
Allocators filter by sub-strategy, fund size, track record, custody arrangements, and regulatory framework. Violet matches allocator investment criteria to digital asset managers, and Global Alts events dedicate programming to institutional digital assets across every event on the calendar.
