On April 5th, ArkStream hosted its second GP/LP private dinner in Hong Kong, bringing together leading investors and innovators from the worlds of Web2 and Web3 to discuss the future of financial technology. The event featured key participants from multiple sectors, including venture capitalists and family offices, as well as representatives from established Web2 financial entities like Gaorong, YF, and Ant Group.The dinner was also marked by the participation of notable general partners (GPs) from the crypto and blockchain communities, such as MH Ventures, Nomad Capital, and Stepinofficial. These interactions underscored the growing interest and investments flowing from traditional finance (Web2) into decentralized platforms (Web3).

The focus of the evening was on the mainstreaming of Web3 financial services and how traditional financial institutions are positioning themselves within this emerging paradigm. Conversations centered around the integration of blockchain technologies with existing financial infrastructures and the innovative potential of cryptocurrencies to create new investment frameworks.

During the pre-dinner speech, Ye Su, founding partner of ArkStream Capital, highlighted the transformation of the cryptocurrency landscape following the approval of the bitcoin ETF. “Cryptocurrency has now definitively become a mainstream part of asset portfolios,” stated Ye Su. Since 2017, ArkStream Capital has been committed to aiding family offices and institutional investors with managing their investments, including early investments in industry unicorns.

Ye Su outlined the strategic focus of ArkStream Capital’s second fund, which centers on infrastructure innovations and the Bitcoin ecosystem. “These areas will be the core investment tracks for our second fund,” he declared, expressing optimism about entering the first of many prolonged bull markets.

ArkStream’s initiative in hosting such an event reflects its commitment to leading the charge in bridging the gap between conventional financial systems and the innovative possibilities offered by Web3. The outcomes of these gatherings are expected to influence future investment trends and the strategic direction of both Web2 and Web3 entities.
