Introducing the Pearl Bitcoin FundWith the launch of Pearl Bitcoin Fund, we’re bringing our disciplined approach to a new frontier: Bitcoin.
As the first tax-free Bitcoin fund, Pearl Bitcoin (BTC) Fund allows accredited investors to reinvest capital gains into Bitcoin and eliminate future capital gains taxes—through the same IRS-backed strategy we’ve used to build lasting investor value across our prior funds.
Treated as a capital asset, Bitcoin’s biggest challenges are volatility and taxes. We’re solving this.
Pearl Bitcoin Fund allows accredited investors to leverage the full potential of Bitcoin while eliminating all capital gains taxes and minimizing volatility through our proprietary long-term Opportunity Zone process.
Why a Fund vs. an ETF?
This is the first Bitcoin investment fund allowing accredited investors to grow their Bitcoin wealth tax-free while benefiting from the well-established, substantial and regulated tax benefits associated with the Opportunity Zone investment program.
Pearl Bitcoin Fund allows long-term investors to invest capital gains into Bitcoin to eliminate all future capital gain taxes. With institutional custody agents and a long-term HODL strategy, we provide a safe, simple, and tax-optimized way to invest in Bitcoin.
