28/06/2021 CoinFund set to launch new investment vehicle for NFTs
CoinFund is doubling down on the non-fungible token (NFT) market with a new investment vehicle, head of portfolio growth Vanessa Grellet revealed on the most recent episode of The Scoop.
Dubbed Metaversal, the new vehicle will serve as both a way for investors to bet on the overall market and as a development studio for NFT companies.
CoinFund has been one of the NFT market's most prominent bulls to date. Now it's launching Metaversal despite the recent slump in usage across platforms for trading blockchain-based collectibles NFT-based art and other assets.
Grellet said despite the slump there's still "so much demand."
"Even though you see a slowing down in the consumption, I think we are going to see a lot of tools around lending, around the financialization of NFTs that are going to make the NFT space even larger than other spaces like DeFi, etcetera," she said.
CoinFund has already been very active in NFT market. The firm led Rarible's $14 million fundraise, which was announced earlier this month. It is also an investor in Dapper Labs, Genies, and NFTfi, according to its website.
The NFT market saw breakneck growth earlier this year, with weekly trade volume soaring to nearly $200 million in late February. It stood at around $40 million the week of June 20.
"NFTs are so much more than just the art, theyâre so much more than just collectibles, think about contracts, think about other aspects of your life that are unique, anything that you can create an NFT out of," Grellet said. "So the sky's the limit.â

Michael Jordan - Crown Collection
âAll you needed was one little match to start that whole fire.â- Michael Jordan.
In regards to both the action on the court and everything that happened off of it, Jordan provided a spark that changed the future in so many different ways throughout his tenure in Chicago, and even decades after the fact.
And, in the end, he got everything that he wanted when he began his NBA journey: he turned the team and organization as a whole into a respected program, like the dynasties he looked up to as a child.
Having steered the Chicago Bulls to an incredible six championship rings in eight years from 1991-1998, scooping up five MVP awards in the process, Jordan is one of just a handful of superstars who have truly transcended their sports.
Jordan and Scottie Pippenâs (right) relationship both on and off the pitch was arguably the foundation of the Bullsâ incredible success. Scottie Pippen was present with Jordan for all six championships in eight seasons.
Dennis Rodman (left) His relentless and smart play perfectly suited what Jordan and Jackson wanted to do to take the Bulls to greater heights. Although his exploits off the court earned him special fame, Rodman was unquestionably one of the greatest basketball players of his generation and one of the finest defensive players in the history of the game.

JosĂ© Delbo sent me his striking pencil sketch and powerful inked work, which I then interpreted in oil on canvas. I wanted to create a very painterly piece with obvious brush marks etc, but I was also aiming for a nostalgic feel, a kind of 1980âs superhero comic book look, the kind I grew up with. My goal with this animation was to try to recreate, in part, the creative process that both artists went through with the visual information I had. I was able to showcase my painting process more accurately as I could take photographs of my progress throughout. Consecutive images could then be layered like brush strokes over JosĂ©âs drawing to create the impression that this was one continuous artwork from pencil, to ink, to completed painting. The representation of the line sketch at the beginning, then pencil/ink and lastly the paint layers being applied demonstrate both artistsâ struggle for the right lines, tone, form, and colour until the work is finally completed. As the oil was still wet with each photograph the glare of my studio lights can be seen in the brush strokes. Eventually, the figure emerges and as it does, our hero comes to life, looking directly at the viewer -- but is he grimacing in approval or disgust? We will never know for sure as just before he can say anything, white paint is brushed across the canvas entirely and the process begins again. Only the bat is quick enough to escape.
