Blockchain Investments

A Cryptocurrency Investments Fund

About Us

We believe a public digital ledger and affiliated Blockchain technologies are the culmination of many centuries of human progress and development. Our name firm ‘Vellum’ goes far back to ancient times. Roman societies would use the highest quality leather skins to produce manuscripts and important records – and many still survive to this day. 

Vellum Capital’s name represents our view that when you combine the world’s most advanced record keeping technology with modern trading markets you create an economic opportunity unlike anything we’ve ever experienced. To realize this opportunity, we manage a private investment fund for investors to participate in this technology wave.

Pro Crypto and Pro Dollar

Admittedly, the crypto space has a bit of the Gadsen Flag running through its veins:  “don’t tread on me” could easily be the motto for the entire space, but to assume that motto sums up the entire space, and sums up how it should be regulated, or how it should be viewed by politicians is incredibly short sighted.  Over the past few years, as crypto has steadily crept into mainstream consciousness, it has been compared
