SkyBridge Capital to Move $300 Million into Tokens on Avalanche
Date: 2025-08-21 Author: Oliver Abernathy Categories: BUSINESS
SkyBridge Capital has announced its intention to transfer about $300 million from its own funds into tokenized assets that will be placed on the Avalanche network. The initiative is being implemented with the support of the Tokeny platform, which specializes in the tokenization of financial instruments.
According to the founder and CEO of the company, Anthony Scaramucci, we are talking about funds from two SkyBridge funds. The first is focused on investing in cryptocurrencies, and the second is a fund of funds that combines a number of venture and cryptocurrency products of the company itself. In total, this operation covers approximately 10% of the total volume of assets under management.
Scaramucci emphasized that the coming years will be a key period for the active implementation of tokenization. He noted that he expects 2026-2027 as the "era of real assets on the blockchain."
For the technical implementation of the project, SkyBridge cooperates with Tokeny, and Avalanche was chosen as the infrastructure. Ava Labs President John Wu noted that this initiative pursues two main goals. Firstly, to transfer activity from the traditional financial sector (TradFi) to the blockchain. Secondly, to demonstrate the economic potential of the technology, which allows for a significant reduction in costs.
It is worth noting that the market for tokenized assets is growing rapidly. As of August 2025, the total volume of such instruments reached a record level - about $ 270 billion. Experts believe that this segment is capable of becoming one of the key areas of development of the financial industry in the coming years.
Thus, the SkyBridge Capital initiative demonstrates that large investment companies are beginning to actively use tokenization as a way to expand access to their products and improve the efficiency of capital management. The choice of Avalanche as a network emphasizes the desire to ensure scalability and transparency of processes, and cooperation with Tokeny confirms a professional approach to compliance with all technical and legal aspects.
SkyBridge's move can be seen as part of a global trend where traditional investment structures are looking for new ways to interact with digital technologies. If Scaramucci's predictions come true, tokenization will become the standard for a significant part of the financial market in the next two to three years, changing the usual model of capital circulation.
The announced project strengthens Avalanche's position among the leading blockchains for working with real assets and confirms the interest of institutional players in creating digital analogues of traditional investment instruments.
The volume of the upcoming tokenization, equal to hundreds of millions of dollars, underlines the scale of the initiative and signals that the market is entering a new stage of development, where the boundaries between traditional finance and blockchain will gradually be erased.
