Catenaa, Saturday, March 07, 2026-YZi Labs has invested $100 million in Hash Global’s BNB-focused fund, deepening institutional backing for the token tied to the Binance ecosystem.
YZi Labs is backed by Changpeng Zhao and Yi He. The firm said BNB has developed into a utility asset offering yield potential and exposure to blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
It encouraged broader participation from traditional capital seeking long-term returns linked to BNB.
Hash Global launched its BNB fund in June. The fund posted a 32.5% return by the end of August, according to information shared by YZi Labs.
