Bitfire Debuts Regulated Crypto Quant Strategy as AUM Hits HK$2 Billion

The new strategy targets market-neutral opportunities by leveraging crypto and AI-linked assets, aiming to provide professional and institutional investors with returns shielded from direct market volatility. Bitfire intends to package these gains into structured investment products, utilizing a framework that integrates custody, trading, and market-making services.

CEO Livio Weng emphasized that the expansion addresses recurring industry shortcomings, specifically a lack of transparent disclosure and genuine asset backing in existing RWA offerings. By operating across the entire lifecycle of tokenized assets—from issuance to circulation—Bitfire seeks to mitigate liquidity risks that often trigger crises during periods of market stress. This pivot builds on the company’s recent focus on stablecoin integration and institutional client acquisition, which has expanded its user base by over 100 times since August 2025. The firm now serves a diverse portfolio of family offices, listed companies, and high-net-worth individuals, positioning its infrastructure to compete in an increasingly regulated Hong Kong digital asset market.
