Platform Democratizes Access to Investment Strategies Traditionally Reserved for Institutions and the Ultra-High-Net-Worth
Crypto-Native Hedge Funds Available Through Partnerships with Fasanara Digital, FalconX and Bastion Trading, with More Launching Soon
MIAMI, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — L1, the operating system for onchain wealth and asset management, today announced that its platform now supports high-alpha strategies managed by crypto-native hedge funds, democratizing access to investment products usually reserved for institutions and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.
“Hedge funds have traditionally catered to those who can afford million-dollar minimums, locking out countless investors,” said Miguel Kudry, L1 CEO and Co-Founder. “By bringing strategies onchain and streamlining onboarding, custody, and operational hurdles, L1 is redefining access to high-alpha strategies, making them more accessible to a wider range of investors and the advisors who serve them.”
Through compliant smart contract vaults, L1 is enabling fund managers to tokenize their strategies, radically shifting how investors interact with and redeem from these sophisticated investment vehicles. This means accredited investors can complete KYC instantly, subscribe to a strategy their RIA recommended within minutes and receive tokenized fund shares directly into their wallet.
The platform also features a clever portfolio construction tool where portfolio sleeves consisting of liquid tokens, yield-generating vaults, and actively managed strategies can make up a broader multi-strategy mandate.
L1 is going live with products from hedge-fund manager Fasanara Digital, institutional crypto prime brokerage FalconX, and proprietary trading firm Bastion Trading, with a growing roster of managers set to follow.
“We’re excited to collaborate with L1 to bring sophisticated hedge fund strategies within reach of financial advisors and a new wave of investors,” said Louis Stewart, Managing Partner and Head of Technology at Fasanara Digital. “Together, we’re shaping a new investor experience that’s accessible, transparent, and impactful.”
By lowering investment minimums and standardizing the allocation workflow across the entire inventory of managers and strategies, L1 enables advisors to create their own multi-strategy model portfolios, effectively giving them access to the same diversification benefits as fund-of-funds, without the expensive infrastructure.
Whereas hedge funds can often be opaque, L1 brings strategies, disbursements, and redemptions onchain, giving investors real-time reporting on their positions and strategy performance. Investors no longer need to wait for a quarterly performance report or investor letter.
Participation in traditional hedge funds can take weeks from introduction to capital deployment. L1’s platform significantly reduces that time through smart contract–based subscription flows and use of Keyring’s zero-knowledge proof technology for onchain identity verification and compliance. This removes the need to share investors’ personal identifiable information with multiple service providers and prevents data leaks.
This primitive benefits funds with expanded distribution, operational efficiency, and access to a broader investor base while investors gain access to an inventory of over-performing fund strategies, the comfort of onboarding and allocating capital seamlessly, and real time tracking and control over their investments.
Technology partners for the launch of onchain hedge fund strategies include Pareto, Keyring, and Bridge.
