Singapore, Singapore, September 18th, 2025, Chainwire
<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://izumi.finance/trade/swap">iZUMi Finance</a> has launched its Upstarts Fund (the “Fund”),&nbsp;an on-chain Crypto fund designed to enable corporates to deploy capital into digital assets through a regulated and transparent framework. CIMG Inc. (Nasdaq: IMG), a Nasdaq-listed company specializing in digital health and sales development, has jointly committed $20 million with iZUMi Finance into the Fund.
​​The Fund comprises three core components:
<ul>
 <li>DeFi liquidity vault — Generates sustainable on-chain yield, deepens liquidity across targeted ecosystems, and accelerates adoption of DeFi applications.</li>
 <li>Listed token investment — Provides institutional-grade access for listed companies to invest in high-quality digital-asset opportunities.</li>
 <li>Tokenized stock trading service— Drives the adoption of on-chain stocks and strengthens liquidity, with the Fund set to scale further to support investments across both traditional stocks and their tokenized versions.</li>
</ul>
These pillars highlight the Fund’s role in pioneering Decentralized Asset Tokenization (DAT), starting with the first yield-bearing BTC DAT by CIMG and iZUMi Finance.

This strengthens governance credibility while amplifying brand narrative and global reach. At the same time,&nbsp;Fund liquidity is deployed to support the partner ecosystems while generating sustainable yield.
In short, the advantages include:
<ul>
 <li>Regulatory Endorsement&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
 <li>Brand and Global Visibility&nbsp;</li>
 <li>Ecosystem Growth with Yield&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Through the Listed Token Investment track, participating protocols gain exposure to U.S. capital-market participants, serving as a real-time market signal to deepen liquidity and accelerate adoption. This connection not only enhances credibility among institutional investors but also positions protocols within a regulated financial framework, unlocking broader access to capital, partnerships, and long-term growth opportunities.

Representatives from iZUMi Finance and CIMG shared their perspectives on the collaboration:
<blockquote>
 “We are pleased to partner with CIMG to establish the Upstarts Fund, enhancing market liquidity and advancing institutional participation in digital assets. Going forward, iZUMi Finance aims to serve as a bridge between traditional capital and the digital asset ecosystem — channeling compliant capital from listed companies into high-quality projects and capturing growth opportunities aligned with corporate treasury objectives,” said Jimmy Yin, Chief Executive Officer of iZUMi Finance.
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
 “At CIMG, we see the Upstarts Fund as a strategic step to diversify treasury assets and capture new yield opportunities. Partnering with iZUMi Finance, a team well regarded for its liquidity expertise, gives us access to digital-asset strategies through a transparent, risk-managed framework that aligns with our institutional standards,” said Alice Wang, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of CIMG.
</blockquote>
The Upstarts Fund offers a compliant and efficient pathway for listed companies to transform static reserves into productive digital-asset portfolios—supporting innovation and enabling responsible participation in the digital economy.&nbsp;
