According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, Franklin Templeton, with assets under management of up to 1.7 trillion USD, has agreed to acquire “250 Digital,” a company spun out from cryptocurrency venture capital firm CoinFund, in order to further expand its lineup of cryptocurrency investment products.

Citing Franklin Templeton innovation chief Sandy Kaul, The Wall Street Journal said on Wednesday that after the completion of this acquisition, the newly established cryptocurrency business unit will be named “Franklin Crypto,” focusing on institutional-level investment markets. Its customer base includes retirement funds, sovereign wealth funds, and other large institutional investors. The transaction’s specific terms and details have not been disclosed.

At present, neither side has publicly disclosed the specific transaction amount and terms.

250 Digital was spun off and became independent in January this year from venture capital firm CoinFund, led by two senior executives at CoinFund, Christopher Perkins and Seth Ginns.

Franklin Templeton has been involved in the cryptocurrency industry since 2018. It currently has about 50 people in its digital asset team, and under its umbrella it has already launched a tokenized cryptocurrency market fund, and it is also the issuer of the US spot Bitcoin and Ether ETF.

Sandy Kaul told The Wall Street Journal: “The recent sharp pullback in the cryptocurrency market has, quite fittingly, created an extremely rare miracle—one that has led our team to unanimously believe that this is the perfect time to ‘pull the trigger’ and move into action.”
