Pantera Capital, a renowned crypto-focused asset manager with assets totaling $5.2 billion, is in the process of raising capital from prominent investors. Meanwhile, this has sparked curiosity in the financial sector over the potential move of Pantera with the fund.
However, according to a Bloomberg <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-07/pantera-raising-money-to-buy-250-million-solana-holding-from-ftx-sol" target="_blank">report</a>, the fund will be used to acquire deeply discounted Solana tokens from the estate of FTX, a digital asset exchange that declared bankruptcy. As per Bloomberg, the Pantera Solana Fund is seeking to secure funds for this endeavor, aiming to purchase up to $250 million worth of SOL tokens.
Meanwhile, Pantera’s proposal offers an enticing opportunity for investors, with the option to acquire SOL tokens at a discounted rate of 39% below the 30-day average price or at $59.95. However, this comes with a condition, i.e. investors must commit to a vesting period of up to four years.
Notably, this strategic move is designed to alleviate immediate pressure on Solana’s token price while providing liquidity to <a href="https://coingape.com/ftx-news-claim-faces-backlash-over-massive-price-gap-for-btc-eth-sol-bnb/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FTX’s</a> estate for creditor repayment.

The soaring trajectory of <a href="https://coingape.com/trending/solana-might-hit-its-ath-soon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SOL</a> over the past year, witnessing a staggering 600% increase, presents a lucrative opportunity for FTX’s estate to generate funds for creditor reimbursement. Notably, SOL’s current trading price is nearly quadruple its value at the time of FTX’s collapse in November 2022. Besides, the involvement of <a href="https://coingape.com/sam-bankman-fried-shouldnt-get-leniency-court-filing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Sam Bankman-Fried</a>, co-founder and former CEO of FTX, as a major supporter of the <a href="https://coingape.com/sam-bankman-fried-shilling-solana-in-jail-what-could-go-wrong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana network</a> adds an intriguing dimension to this development.
Meanwhile, the timeline for Pantera’s fund closure was set for the end of February, with efforts to secure investments reportedly underway. However, specific details regarding the amount raised remain undisclosed.
In addition, the report showed that the investors keen to participate in this opportunity are required to commit a minimum of $25 million each. Besides, Pantera plans to implement a management fee of 0.75% and a performance cut of 10%, as outlined in their materials.
