Its fund operates across Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Aptos, Avalanche, Ink and more blockchain networks. It is accessible to a broader range of investors through the Securitize Markets platform.<\/p>\n
The fund has gained interest from Coinbase Asset Management, Kraken and more such financial companies. It gestures increase in institutional confidence in tokenized credit assets and Apollo believes the technology can revolutionize private credit markets as liquidity, transparency and efficiency will be improved. Apollo aims to create a more streamlined and scalable investment structure by offering an on-chain solution for credit fund investments. Early success of the feeder fund highlights growing demand for blockchain-based financial products.<\/p>\n
