Yuma, a development studio and accelerator for decentralized AI (deAI) network Bittensor created by Barry Silbert of Digital Currency Group, has introduced Yuman Asset Management, to allow institutional and accredited investors easy access to the deAI ecosystem.Bittensor is a decentralized network for AI that rewards people for contributing data and computing power to a range of activities in the form of distinct use case-driven entities called “subnets,” that can include things like text translation, fraud detection, image recognition to more esoteric goals like predicting the structure of complex protein chains.Powered by its native token, TAO, Bittensor aspires to be the “World Wide Web” of AI, by allowing permissionless AI innovation where anyone can build, power, or access models through subnets – an alternative to the centralized infrastructure or corporate-owned AI resources.Yuma Asset Management, which comes with a $10 million anchor investment from DCG, features two fund strategies investing in subnet tokens, the protocol-native crypto assets of these decentralized contributor networks, denominated in and traded with TAO, according to a press release.The Yuma Subnet Composite Fund, which is designed for market-cap weighted exposure across all active subnets, is similar to the “NASDAQ Composite” for subnet tokens, DCG said. The Yuma Large Cap Subnet Fund is similar to the “Dow Jones Industrial Average” for subnet tokens, designed for targeted exposure to the top subnets by market capitalization.Back in the early days of Bitcoin, Silbert did something similar when he launched the Bitcoin Investment Trust in 2013, now Grayscale’s GBTC product. DCG believes that it remains difficult for investors to access Bittensor, or for investors to access AI in general given that the largest AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are private. As such, Yuma Asset Management is providing an early and unique bridge to AI for institutions and accredited investors, DCG said.“Subnet tokens are an emerging asset class, fueled by TAO, that provide investors with unprecedented exposure to a massive wave of AI innovation,” said Yuma CEO Barry Silbert. “The decentralized AI sector has the power to be as transformative as Bitcoin, and Yuma Asset Management is opening the door for investors to access it through Bittensor.”Yuma, a development studio and accelerator for decentralized AI (deAI) network Bittensor created by Barry Silbert of Digital Currency Group, has introduced Yuman Asset Management, to allow institutional and accredited investors easy access to the deAI ecosystem.Bittensor is a decentralized network for AI that rewards people for contributing data and computing power to a range of activities in the form of distinct use case-driven entities called “subnets,” that can include things like text translation, fraud detection, image recognition to more esoteric goals like predicting the structure of complex protein chains.Powered by its native token, TAO, Bittensor aspires to be the “World Wide Web” of AI, by allowing permissionless AI innovation where anyone can build, power, or access models through subnets – an alternative to the centralized infrastructure or corporate-owned AI resources.Yuma Asset Management, which comes with a $10 million anchor investment from DCG, features two fund strategies investing in subnet tokens, the protocol-native crypto assets of these decentralized contributor networks, denominated in and traded with TAO, according to a press release.The Yuma Subnet Composite Fund, which is designed for market-cap weighted exposure across all active subnets, is similar to the “NASDAQ Composite” for subnet tokens, DCG said.

The Beijing Procuratorate announced a case of illegal USDT cross-border foreign exchange transactions involving over 1.1 billion yuan.

PANews reported on October 29th that, according to a report by 21st Century Business Herald, on October 28th, the Beijing Municipal People's Procuratorate released "Typical Cases of High-Quality and Efficient Performance of Financial Procuratorial Duties" (2024-2025). One case involved "using virtual currency to indirectly buy and sell foreign exchange, involving over 1.1 billion yuan." Between January and August 2023, Lin Jia, under the instruction of others, colluded with Lin Yi, Xia, Bao, and Chen to use multiple bank cards under their names to receive large amounts of RMB funds transferred from clients (such as Liu) connected to the "upstream" of an illegal currency exchange organization. This gang used virtual currency as a "bridge" to achieve the illegal purpose of cross-border fund transfers: Lin Jia and others converted the received RMB into USDT through multiple USDT trading platform accounts they actually controlled, and then completed the cross-border fund transfer through platform transactions, essentially engaging in disguised foreign exchange trading and profiting from it. According to the report, the total illegal business activities of the gang amounted to over 1.182 billion yuan, of which five members, including Xia and Bao, participated in activities ranging from over 149 million yuan to over 469 million yuan. On March 21, 2025, the Haidian District People's Court of Beijing issued a first-instance verdict, sentencing all five defendants to prison terms ranging from two to four years for the crime of illegal business operations, and imposing corresponding fines.
