Coinbase Launch Bitcoin Savings Account for Big Investors Up to 8% Returns
- Coinbase launches a Bitcoin Yield Fund (CBYF) aiming for 4-8% annual net returns in BTC, targeting institutional investors.
- CBYF prioritizes lower risk through third-party custody and avoids high-interest loans and systematic call selling.
- Backed by investors like Aspen Digital, CBYF launches May 1, 2025, for international investors, with a $1B capacity.
Coinbase has launched a proprietary Bitcoin Yield Fund (CBYF) that seeks a 4-8% net return in BTC per year, over a market cycle, with investors subscribing and redeeming in the asset.
As per the announcement post, Bitcoin yield funds come in handy against traditional assets or staked digital assets such as Ether and Solana that do not generate yield. Additionally, a lack of institutional allocators creates a hurdle for investment and operational purposes. In such a scenario, Coinbases BTC fund aims to lower expected investment and operational risks, aligning with institutional investor risk appetite.
CBYF also uses third-party custody integrations for trading, significantly reducing counterparty risk. Additionally, its investment strategy avoids riskier high-interest bitcoin loans and systematic call selling.
The fund received major financial backing from several high-profile investors, like Aspen Digital, an FSRA-regulated digital asset manager based in Abu Dhabi, UAE. CBYF officially launches on May 1, 2025.
Additional CBYF details:
- Monthly fund open for subscriptions/redemptions, five business days notice.
- $1 billion AUM estimated strategy capacity.
- Qualified custodians.
- Currently available for international investors (non-US).
