The platform is designed with an initial target capacity of up to $500 million, subject to market conditions, investor demand from institutional and other non-retail eligible counterparties, and applicable regulatory approvals.

"Real-world asset tokenization represents a practical evolution in how traditional assets are managed," said Matt Zhang, Founder of Hivemind. "We believe partnering with a world-renowned institutional investor like CPIC IMHK allows us to combine onchain investment expertise with a trusted, institutionally scaled distribution platform, bringing more assets onchain and expanding institutional access to blockchain-based markets."

CG Zhou, CEO of CPIC IMHK added, "Tokenization represents a new way to improve how institutional capital is deployed and managed. Working with Hivemind allows us to apply this technology to enhance transparency, efficiency, and return potential, while maintaining the regulatory and governance standards expected by our investors."

The initiative reflects growing institutional demand for tokenized access to traditional assets, particularly private assets, which have the potential to enhance transparency, improve liquidity, and expand avenues for increased return. By focusing on compliance-first implementation and institutional distribution, the partnership seeks to support the responsible adoption of tokenization as part of the broader continued evolution of global financial markets.
