B Strategy Targets $1B Raise for U.S.-Listed BNB Investment Vehicle
August 25, 2025 – Digital asset investment firm B Strategy is launching a U.S.-listed company designed to act as both a BNB treasury and an ecosystem investment arm, with ambitions to raise $1 billion, the firm said in a statement Monday.
The project is being developed with the backing of YZi Labs, the investment platform founded by Binance co-founders Changpeng Zhao and Yi He. Leading the new venture is Max Hua, former CFO of mining giant Bitmain, along with the co-founders of crypto asset manager Metalpha.
The company’s mandate goes beyond holding BNB. According to the release, it aims to become the “Berkshire Hathaway of the BNB ecosystem,” allocating capital toward core technology development, community-driven initiatives, and grants for experimental projects to strengthen BNB Chain’s infrastructure.
Hua emphasized the firm’s focus on institutional standards of governance and transparency:
“From bank-level custody and independently verified holdings to rigorous risk limits and cross-border efficiency, we’re ensuring that investors—whether in New York or Hong Kong—can access BNB with confidence,” Hua said.
The initiative is part of a broader trend of bridging crypto-native tokens with traditional markets, giving institutions and retail investors alike a more familiar, regulated pathway into BNB exposure.
