HONG KONG, CHINA -�Media Outreach-�November�15,
2018�-�Kenetic, a
blockchain investment and advisory firm based in Hong Kong, has revealed that
its proprietary investment portfolio has recorded year-to-date returns of 77
percent as of October 31, 2018, against a backdrop of major losses in the
cryptocurrency market.

After
hitting its record high in December 2017, Bitcoin has fallen over 50 percent in
2018 and the overall crypto market is down around 65%.

Kenetic's proprietary investment portfolio is comprised of
its best ideas that have undergone thorough due diligence by its experienced
investment team. Its alpha-generating strategies are largely focused on early
stage investments, catalyst driven events and macro themes, complemented by
prudent risk management and proprietary in-house trading tools. ��

"As active leaders in the global blockchain community, we
see where the strongest investment opportunities lie and rising trends that are
influencing traditional industries," said Daniel Weinberg, CEO of Kenetic.
"During this volatile period, our proprietary investment portfolio continued to
outperform many crypto funds as a result of our deep institutional investment
experience and strong risk management."

�

To facilitate professional investor access to these
opportunities, Kenetic and Venture Smart Asia Limited
(VSAL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Venture Smart Financial Group (VSFG) and
a Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission-licensed corporation that
provides wealth management and asset management services, have established a
strategic partnership that will give qualified professional investors access to
cryptocurrency investment funds.

�

Through this partnership, the two companies will work
together to develop cryptocurrency investment funds for professional investors
leveraging the respective expertise and resources of both entities. Distributed
by VSAL, the new funds will offer eligible investors the ability to diversify
their portfolios with digital assets across different passive and active
strategies.

"VSAL and Kenetic have a strong partnership and are building
institutional-grade investment products in the digital asset space," said Mark
Brady, Executive Director at VSFG. "We work with the best partners to build
products that will meet the highest standards of any buy-side institution.
Pairing Kenetic's blockchain expertise with VSAL's customized asset management
solutions will help institutional investors gain access to fund products that
