On-chain fund structures represent investment vehicles or financial arrangements that are entirely created, managed, and operated using smart contracts on a blockchain. These structures automate various fund operations, including capital calls, distributions, and investor reporting, without relying on traditional intermediaries. They offer increased transparency, reduced administrative overhead, and potentially broader access for investors. Such structures leverage the immutable and programmable nature of distributed ledgers.
Context
The state of on-chain fund structures is currently evolving, attracting interest from both traditional finance and digital asset native entities. A key debate involves navigating the legal and regulatory complexities of applying existing fund laws to these novel digital arrangements. Critical future developments include the standardization of legal wrappers for on-chain funds and clearer regulatory guidance, which could accelerate their adoption and acceptance in global markets.
