Pantera Capital - About
Pantera Capital was the first cryptocurrency fund and institutional asset manager focused exclusively on blockchain technology in the US.
Pantera Capital made its first investments when Bitcoin was at $65 /BTC in early 2013, and since then, the fund stays at the top of the most influential and high-rated funds in the industry. Pantera Capital was established by an ex-Tiger Management’s Head of Macro Trading and CFO – Dan Morehead, so a deep knowledge of the industry and a top-notch expertise is embedded in the fund's DNA from the outset.
