What if you could collect a profit share on a publicly-traded crypto index fund that doesn’t have a massive discount/premium to book value?
Diffuse Digital 30 – our market cap weighted index fund tracking an index of the top 30 coins – is hopefully listing on the OTCQX.
In this 30 minute virtual session for alt fund GPs and LPs – Dave McClure, founder of Practical VC and founder at 500 Startups – grilled us on our portfolio allocation, returns, risk management, and fund structuring strategy to suss out whether the juice is worth the squeeze.
If you are curious how we’re looking to launch a redeemable crypto index fund with a profit share for investors in our $30M pre-IPO round, watch the video recording or download the event transcript for the DiffuseLaunch DD30 event.

The leadership ranks in the tech and finance industry are known to be sparsely occupied by women. Crypto, at the intersection of finance and tech, is no different. Does that mean female leaders in crypto have an edge thanks to this ‘survival of the fittest’ self-selection process?
Last time on DiffuseTap, we spoke with two female leaders: Nisa Amoils, Managing Partner at A100x Ventures, and Kirsten Wegner, CEO of Modern Markets Initiative. We asked Nisa and Kirsten about the rise of women-founded crypto companies, how they broke into the space and are growing rapidly despite the obstacles, and where to find and support female leaders in digital assets that have an edge.
