Institutional Web3 Fund

Building Web3 Infrastructure
Driving Global Value Flow

CHAO Fund is focused on Web3 infrastructure and the tokenization of real‑world assets, powered by a data‑driven investment system built for transparency and resilience.

Our Approach

CHAO Fund’s team is not built around a single, traditional model like that of a conventional finance or tech company; instead, it is designed around the real needs of Web3 investing.

Primary & Incubation

Early‑stage investments with a stage‑gate diligence system and thesis alignment.

CHAO Labs

The internal engine that powers research, on‑chain analytics, execution tooling, and continuous calibration.

Data → Signal → Execution

Institutional‑grade tooling for resilient decision‑making

CHAO Labs transforms raw on‑chain data into actionable signals, then routes decisions through risk budgets and post‑mortem feedback loops—so the organization compounds learning over time.

Data Layer

Indexing, labeling, and high‑frequency capture across chains & venues.

Signal Layer

Funnel scoring, anomaly detection, and risk‑aware prioritization.

Execution & Audit

Playbooks, guardrails, and traceable, reviewable decision artifacts.

DeFi

Core primitives: lending, DEXs, derivatives, and yield infrastructure.

  • Liquidity depth & stickiness
  • Oracle + MEV analysis

RWA

Tokenization rails connecting real‑world assets with programmable finance.

  • Collateral + legal enforceability
  • Servicing + cashflow integrity
  • On‑chain transparency

Institutional Process

A disciplined pipeline that keeps velocity while preventing narrative‑driven drift.

Stage‑Gate

From sourcing to optimization

Decisions pass through consistent gates: thesis fit, on‑chain verification, exit feasibility, and risk budget sizing—then feedback returns to improve the next cycle.

Operational Discipline

Checklists, scoring, and audit trails reduce irreversible errors.

Speed With Guardrails

Clear thresholds preserve reaction time without sacrificing rigor.

CHAO Token

A “mother token” design: governance + value accrual + portfolio rewards stream.

Mother Token

Governance + Value Accrual

CHAO aligns stakeholders through transparent governance and portfolio‑linked rewards, designed to scale with CHAO Fund’s expansion into infrastructure, stablecoins, and RWAs.

Governance

Proposals, parameters, portfolio inclusion, and risk controls.

Value Return

Buybacks / burns, fee capture, and protocol‑level accrual mechanisms.

Rewards Stream

Portfolio airdrops and yield distribution for long‑term stakers.
