Statement from Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary, Grayscale’s Head of Product & Research

The development of breakthrough technologies has created exciting opportunities for Grayscale’s investors since our founding in 2013. We believe that the launch of the Decentralized AI Fund offers an opportunity to invest in decentralized AI at its earliest stages, said Sharif-Askary.

She emphasized, Blockchain-based AI protocols embody the principles of decentralization, accessibility, and transparency. The Grayscale team strongly believes that these protocols can help mitigate the inherent risks associated with the widespread adoption of AI technology.

Grayscale Launches Dynamic Income Fund

Previously, in May, Grayscale launched the Dynamic Income Fund (GDIF), a proof-of-stake investment fund for millionaire investors with a net worth of at least $2.2 million.

GDIF aims to capitalize on the growing proof-of-stake token ecosystem by employing flexible strategies to optimize returns. The fund’s primary goal is to leverage staking rewards generated by proof-of-stake digital assets.
