Galaxy Digital Secures $100 Million for New Hedge Fund

Galaxy Digital has secured $100 million in commitments for a new hedge fund set to launch in the first quarter. According to the announcement, this marks a significant advance in the evolving relationship between traditional finance and digital assets. 

Galaxy New Fund and Key Business Focus

Reports citing familiar sources confirmed that the fund will adopt a diversified investment strategy, allocating 30% to cryptocurrencies and 70% to financial services equities. No doubt, this strategy reflects increasing institutional confidence in crypto as part of a broader, risk-managed portfolio rather than a speculative asset.

It is worth noting that the $100 million commitments come from family offices, high-net-worth individuals, and some selected prominent institutional investors. Galaxy also confirmed its own seed investments in the hedge fund, although specific amounts remain undisclosed. However, the seed commitments reinforce the vehicle’s credibility and align the firm’s interests with those of external investors.

Meanwhile, the launch of this hedge fund coincides with a growing integration of digital assets into mainstream investment strategies. As the fund prepares to launch in the first quarter, market participants will closely watch how the crypto and financial services equities mix performs.

Galaxy Digital Floats All-in-One Platform 

In October, the Nasdaq-listed crypto investment firm launched GalaxyOne. This new platform is designed to combine traditional banking and digital assets. The app allows users to save, trade, and invest easily, marking Galaxy’s first move from serving big institutions to individual users.

GalaxyOne includes a 4% cash account along with secure crypto storage and trading features. It also provides access to over 2,000 U.S. equities, stocks, and exchange-tarded funds (ETFs), all with zero trading commissions. Additionally, GalaxyOne supports fractional share trading. This enables users to invest in high-value stocks without needing large amounts of money.

Users across the United States who meet standard Know-Your-Customer (KYC) checks can buy, hold, and transfer popular cryptocurrencies. This includes Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Paxos Gold (PAXG). The company plans to add more digital tokens in the future.

Expanding From Institutional Strength to Retail Reach

Galaxy Digital has long been known as a leader in institutional finance and digital asset management. With GalaxyOne, the company is now using the same strong infrastructure to reach everyday investors. In a recent statement, Mike Novogratz, CEO and founder of the company, said Galaxy built top-tier infrastructure for major investors and is now bringing it to individuals. 

Galaxy has also underscored its growing presence in the cryptocurrency market. In 2025, the company purchased $306 million worth of Solana in a single day, showing continued confidence in digital assets.
