Cypherpunk Announces Investment into Cryptocurrency Fund
Cypherpunk invests $630k in crypto arbitrage fund run by Lucy Labs
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 22, 2022) – Cypherpunk Holdings Inc. (CSE: HODL) (OTC Pink: CYFRF) (“Cypherpunk” or, the “Company“), a sector leader for blockchain, metaverse, privacy and cryptography focused investments, is pleased to announce an investment of $630k (USD $500k) in cryptocurrency arbitrage fund Lucy Labs Flagship Offshore Fund SPC, managed by Lucy Labs GP LLC (“Lucy Labs”).
Lucy Labs is a multi-strategy cryptocurrency asset management firm focused on developing and applying quantitative and fundamental trading strategies in major spot, lending, and futures cryptocurrency markets.
Lucy Labs manages a range of quantitative strategies exploiting momentum and carry factors, targeting moderate to aggressive returns while maintaining rigorous risk management and strategy-specific structures to reduce the volatility (inherent in the cryptocurrency markets). The firm also acts as a market maker and liquidity provider in both centralized and decentralized exchanges.
Cypherpunk Holdings CEO Jeff Gao has led the move to diversify the Company’s treasury management away from passive storage and made the following comments in relation to the partnership with Lucy Labs:
“Passive storage of crypto is fast becoming a thing of the past. Those investors who continue to seek exposure to bitcoin via proxies have a plethora of ETFs and listed names to choose from. That is not what Cypherhpunk is about. We offer our investors the opportunity to benefit from crypto from the lens of prudent risk management. The essence of our risk management framework is expressed through our OTC operations as well as through the performance of our strategic partners. We saw in Lucy Labs a product that provided a low volatility income stream and whose performance was largely uncorrelated with our other strategies. Their onboarding comes off the tail of an extensive due diligence process that began in Q3 2021.”
“Crypto volatility continues to bear fruit for skilled operators in this space and the opportunity to blend derivatives with our treasury holdings allows us to construct higher return profiles with similar or lower levels of risk compared to the status quo. For more sophisticated executions, we have partnered with the likes of Lucy Labs to help us construct those desired risk-return profiles. Our journey in this space has just begun. We plan to bring on additional partners with extensive trading and crypto markets experience to help execute directionally neutral strategies across a range of exchanges and instruments. Watch this space closely as Cypherpunk undergoes a pivotal transformation.”

UNICC and ShelterZoom Developed a Secure Document Tracking and E-Signature Solution for the UN System
The United Nations International Computing Center (UNICC) and ShelterZoom are pleased to announce a new innovative blockchain-based solution for controlling and protecting the digital data of UN entities and other international organizations. As the largest strategic partner for digital solutions and cybersecurity within the UN system, UNICC has partnered with ShelterZoom, a leading data and content protection and ownership SaaS company behind innovations such as Document Token® technology and Document GPS®.
Building upon the 50 years of experienced innovation from the UNICC, the two organizations collaborated on a transformational undertaking offering robust protection and promising increased productivity for document tracking and management. ShelterZoom will contribute its proprietary document tokenization technology, along with its data protection, document tracking and e-signature solutions to deliver a white-labeled platform, giving member organizations a greater level of governance over their content. Using ShelterZoom’s flagship proprietary Single Source Of Truth® technology, the solution provides a means for each file to be protected individually without changing user normal habits instead of having to rely solely on protecting files at the database level. This ‘singularity and control’ is a new era in cybersecurity and document management, which has never been seen before at this level of seamless integration with existing tools.
“The synergy between what we deliver and the goals of the United Nations are a perfect match for Single Source Of Truth,” said Chao Cheng-Shorland, CEO and Cofounder of ShelterZoom. “We have said from the beginning that it is time to think about cybersecurity in a completely new way and in doing so we have created a solution to address other operational pain points while simultaneously solving one of the biggest challenges facing the global population today. The UN is at the frontlines of changing the world for the better and its forward-thinking approach to using technology to address fundamental issues is critical in improving livelihoods for all.”
ShelterZoom solutions have already been in use across dozens of industries and with this new commercial partnership, they can now extend their usefulness to the UN family and other international organizations. The revolutionary method for complete document tracking with built-in productivity tools, such as digital signatures and a market-first method for organizing files inside email, is an all-in-one solution built for a global workforce. The Single Source of Truth model has the added benefit of decreasing the carbon footprint created by excessive digital waste, further supporting the sustainability goals of the United Nations.
“The need for robust cybersecurity and data protection has never been greater,” said Sameer Chauhan, Director of UNICC. “By working together with ShelterZoom, we have developed a cutting-edge tool tailored to the needs of the UN family. Our unwavering commitment to providing best-in-class solutions ensures we continue to support the digital transformation and modernization of the UN system and other international organizations.”
