Exclusive: Ilan Tzorya to Launch a Major Investment Fund Focusing on Crypto

The founder of Tradologic, Ilan Tzorya is re-emerging with a new fund that aims its focus on crypto and fintech. Having exited Tradologic more than a year ago Mr Tzorya has been focusing on private investments in the trading and marketing space through his own private fund and is now embarking on establishing a second fund which will have major focus on the booming crypto market.

Mr Tzorya shared his plans on the new venture and elaborated on his existing ones in an exclusive interview with Finance Magnates.

Finance Magnates: Could you please tell us a bit more about your existing fund?

Ilan Tzorya: I have established my first investment company DTI at the end of 2016. Starting with €1 million invested capital today this holding company is now valued at over $20 million. One of its main assets is the Veltyco company (VLTY.L) listed on the London Stock Exchange with a valuation of more than £50 million.

My latest business initiative is the founding of a new investment fund focused on Fintech and Crypto.

FM: Why joining the cryptocurrency space?

IT: I see cryptocurrencies as a revolutionary creation of humanity. I don’t believe that people fully understand the potential there yet and at this stage it is our duty to unveil and develop a full range of products in this space. We are talking about technology and mechanisms that will remove barriers and will enable flawless direct connection between countries, businesses and people. Crypto has the capability to generate large scale markets that can reach trillions of dollars.

I believe the Blockchain Blockchain Blockchain comprises a digital network of blocks with a comprehensive ledger of transactions made in a cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin or other altcoins.One of the signature features of blockchain is that it is maintained across more than one computer. The ledger can be public or private (permissioned). In this sense, blockchain is immune to the manipulation of data, making it not only open but verifiable.

It can be used in different industries and markets - the capital markets; the car industry; arts & entertainment industry (event ticket sales); it can even be implemented in government voting systems!

Smart contracts will eventually replace the middlemen, the banks, lawyers, authorities and legal advisors. No more bank restrictions and excessive fees, no more venture capital where a handful of people are pulling all strings. Crypto will allow the public to participate widely in decision-making and the common will of the crowd will determine the course of development.

IT: If a blockchain company wants to do ICO and we decide to partner with them, not only will they get the needed funding but also:

- they will benefit from our ICO expert companies to guide them through /or carry out for them the entire process;

- they will have the necessary support from our advertising companies
