This financial boost comes through Blue Owl's GP Strategic Funding platform and aims to enhance the overall capabilities of Bitkraft's venture capital initiatives, which currently manage assets exceeding $1 billion.

The firm's assets span six distinctive funds focusing on both early-stage and growth-stage ventures, as well as interests in Web3 and cryptocurrencies.

Michael Rees, co-president and leader of Blue Owl's GP Strategic Capital platform, expressed: "We are delighted to aid Bitkraft's expansion as a significant global investment entity in gaming, Web3, and AI."

He further noted Bitkraft's robust and varied investment strategy as a key reason for their support.

Jens Hilgers, the founding general partner at Bitkraft, remarked: "The backing from Blue Owl's Strategic Capital platform enables us to scale up operations and offer better returns to both current and future stakeholders."
