Maelstrom Raises $250M for Crypto Acquisitions of Mid-Sized Firms

Maelstrom, the family office of BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes, is launching a new private equity fund with a target of raising $250 million. This fund will invest in six mid-sized crypto firms with stable revenue and strong valuations. Maelstrom’s strategy focuses on acquiring equity stakes in trading infrastructure and analytics platforms rather than speculative token investments.
