Digital Currency Group (DCG) has announced the launch of Yuma Asset Management, a new investment arm established through its subsidiary Yuma, which is focused on scaling the decentralized AI network Bittensor (TAO).
The move, confirmed on Thursday, marks a significant expansion of DCG’s presence in AI-driven blockchain infrastructure.
According to the announcement, Yuma Asset Management will begin operations with an initial $10 million anchor investment from DCG, positioning it to lead institutional capital into the emerging market of decentralized intelligence networks. The firm’s mandate centers on funding subnet tokens within the Bittensor ecosystem, allowing investors to gain structured exposure to the network’s rapidly growing subnet economy.
Yuma’s asset management division will launch with two flagship strategies: the Yuma Subnet Composite Fund, designed to provide market-cap-weighted exposure across all active subnets, and the Yuma Large Cap Subnet Fund, which will focus on the most established subnet projects within the Bittensor ecosystem. Both funds aim to give professional investors diversified access to subnet performance without requiring direct participation in network validation.
The initiative builds on Yuma’s broader mission of supporting Bittensor’s scalability and strengthening decentralized AI infrastructure. By channeling institutional capital into subnet tokens, Yuma seeks to accelerate adoption of AI-powered blockchain applications while providing investors with a gateway to one of the fastest-growing areas of digital asset innovation.
With this launch, DCG is reaffirming its long-term bet on AI-driven decentralization, transforming network participation into investable strategies through structured fund vehicles tied to the Bittensor ecosystem.
