May 22nd, 2025 – San Francisco, United States
XVC Tech, the venture capital arm of the XDC Network, today announced its investment in the Laser Digital Carry Fund (LCF), a market-neutral digital asset strategy managed by Laser Digital, the digital asset subsidiary of Nomura Holdings.
As part of this collaboration, Libre, a regulated infrastructure provider for tokenized investment products will deploy its on-chain issuance and management framework on the XDC Network.
Libre’s integration brings a regulatory-compliant mechanism for the distribution of tokenized financial products to institutional and accredited investors on XDC Network. Having enabled tokenization of a broad range of strategies like regulated hedge funds, money market funds, and private credit including those managed by BlackRock, Brevan Howard, Hamilton Lane, and Laser Digital, Libre’s infrastructure supports the full lifecycle of fund issuance, including on-chain subscription, redemption, and transfer capabilities. This deployment marks a key step in extending access to regulated investment opportunities for institutional and accredited investors across the XDC ecosystem.
“This partnership with Laser Digital and Libre accelerates the integration of institutional capital into our blockchain through trusted and compliant frameworks,” said Thibault Delrue, Investment Manager at XVC Tech. “Libre’s deployment will make tokenized funds from some of the world’s largest asset managers accessible and mintable directly on our network, further extending our ecosystem of institutional partners.”
By combining Libre’s on-chain fund issuance infrastructure with XDC Network’s scalable, EVM-compatible infrastructure, the collaboration sets the stage for broader institutional adoption of blockchain-native financial products.
“We are excited to expand the reach of the Laser Carry Fund through XDC’s high-performance infrastructure,” said Florent Jouanneau, Partner at Laser Digital. “Libre’s deployment represents a meaningful step toward unlocking cross-chain composability and extending institutional-grade investment access to new blockchain ecosystems.”
The Laser Digital Carry Fund is a high-yield, market neutral strategy that takes advantage of funding rates and yield opportunities in the digital asset market. Through Laser Digital’s heritage, the Laser Digital Carry Fund capitalises on capital markets and risk management expertise in traditional and digital markets.
“Bringing the Libre Gateway to XDC reflects our commitment to enabling institutional and accredited investors to access top-tier real-world assets via secure and compliant blockchain infrastructure,” said Dr. Avtar Sehra, CEO of Libre. “XDC’s low-cost, high-throughput environment provides an ideal foundation for issuing and managing tokenized funds at scale.”

Certain information contained herein constitutes forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of terms such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “expect”, “anticipate”,“project”, “estimate”, “intend”, “continue” or “believe” (or the negatives thereof) or other variations thereof. Due to various risks and uncertainties, including those discussed above, actual events or results, the ultimate business or activities of Laser Digital or the actual performance of the strategy mentioned herein may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking statements.

Digital assets: Digital assets regulation is still developing across all jurisdictions and governments may in the future restrict the use and exchange of any or all digital assets. Digital assets are generally not backed nor supported by any government or central bank, are not insured by depositor nor investor guarantees schemes and do not have the same protections countries’ bank deposits may have and are more volatile than traditional currencies and/or other investments. Transacting in digital assets carries the risk of market manipulation and cybersecurity failures such as the risk of hacking, theft, programming bugs, and accidental loss. Differing forms of digital assets may carry different risks. In certain circumstances it may not be possible to liquidate a digital assets position in a timely manner at a reasonable price. The volatility and unpredictability of the price of digital assets may lead to significant and immediate losses.

Alternative investment strategies are intended only for investors who understand and accept the risks associated with investments in such products and these products are not suitable for all investors. Investments in digital assets are high-risk investments, and you should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong. The volatility and unpredictability of the price of digital assets may lead to significant and immediate losses. You are invited to do all the necessary research and learn before investing in digital assets. In considering any performance data in this document, you should bear in mind that past or targeted performance is not indicative of future results, and there can be no assurance that any of the strategy would achieve its investment objectives, comparable results or that target returns would be met. Nothing herein is intended to imply that the Laser’s investment methodology may be considered “conservative”, “safe”, “risk free”, or “risk averse.” The capital and/or return are not guaranteed, nor are they protected.
Performance: Figures presented in this document may refer to the past or simulated past performance. Past and simulated past performance is not a reliable indicator nor a guide of future performance. Where the information contains an indication of future performance, such forecasts are not a reliable indicator of future performance. Expected, targeted and/or estimated future returns are not guaranteed and a loss of the entire original capital may occur. The price and value of investments referred to in this document may fluctuate. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Where not relevant or representative, outliers may be excluded. Any future performance is subject to taxation which depends on the personal situation of each investor, and which may change in the future. The actual performance of a strategy may differ from the performance of the underlying asset and such difference may be material. Neither the actual past performance of the strategy and/or the underlying asset nor the hypothetical performance of the strategy or the underlying asset is an indication or guarantee of similar performance of the strategy in the future; therefore, no representation is made that any such performance / returns will be achieved by the strategy.
