Old Street Digital - fundamental crypto management

Old Street Digital is building an institutional asset manager bringing the best of active, fundamental research-driven portfolio management to crypto. There is enormous opportunity for institutional investors in digital assets but they need a credible product offering from experienced professionals they can trust. They are building a crypto asset manager to fill this gap with a range of actively-managed funds in an accessible fund structure.

Old Street Digital’s unique approach applies traditional fund-management expertise to the world of crypto. The Old Street Digital team is well-positioned to provide access to a range of research-backed, crypto-based investment funds.  

In any new and complex asset class, top-tier technology, security and systems are key. Delivering crypto asset exposure in a familiar fund structure is not without its challenges but the platform they are building offers an institutional-grade option for professional investors.

The company combines a depth of experience from "traditional" asset management space with the nascent crypto asset class to create unique investment products for institutional investors seeking exposure to this fast-growing industry.

OSD was founded by Paul Ridley, Gary Clarke and Nic Basson. Old Steer Digital has raised a total of $2.8M in funding.
