London, May 9 — Lionsoul Global has expanded its product lineup in response to a 300+ ultra-high-net-worth individual (UHNWI) survey by introducing three institutional-grade digital asset investment products: the Bitcoin Alpha Fund of Funds, the Market Neutral Fund of Funds, and the Stablecoin Yield Fund.

An estimated 9,000 family offices globally oversee $3.1 trillion in assets, many of which are seeking structured pathways into the digital asset ecosystem via regulated and institutional-grade services. The number of family offices with digital asset exposure has grown from 16% in 2021 to between 32% and 39% in 2024, reflecting a growing institutional interest in this asset class.

Despite this momentum, many traditional investors cite concerns around infrastructure, counterparty risk, and regulatory oversight as significant barriers to entry. To address these concerns, Lionsoul Global has developed three funds in response to a detailed survey of 332 UHNWIs and family offices, where we found that individuals prized our regulation and institutional-focused approach. We also found that 90% of respondents preferred to put their assets in liquid or semi-liquid products, rather than illiquid products, and that digital asset believers leaned more towards leverage and BTC alpha/yield products.

In response to these evolving investor preferences, development of multi-strategy digital asset frameworks that align with institutional priorities — such as capital preservation, liquidity, and risk-adjusted performance, are of paramount importance for digital asset adoption. These typically include market-neutral approaches denominated in either fiat or Bitcoin, utilising arbitrage, market making, DeFi participation, or volatility-focused strategies, all of which Liounsoul Global enables its clients utilise in the digital asset space.

Additionally, yield-focused structures backed by USD stablecoins are gaining attention for their potential to generate consistent returns through overcollateralized institutional lending. For UHNWIs and family offices conducting independent evaluations, these frameworks represent a way to gain exposure to digital assets in a manner that mirrors traditional investment structures and governance standards.

Lionsoul Global’s new private funds and SMAs aim to address these challenges by combining blockchain-native strategies with institutional-quality governance, risk controls, and transparency. By incorporating digital assets into existing portfolios, investors can increase both absolute and risk-adjusted performance. Our products offer a familiar investment experience while capturing opportunities unique to the digital asset space.

Flexible and transparent investment solutions

Lionsoul Global’s product suite is built to help clients navigate the evolving financial landscape with confidence. Each fund offers an audited structure that aligns with traditional finance standards while leveraging the innovations of digital markets. As family offices and institutional investors deepen their engagement with digital assets, the demand for professionally managed, secure strategies is expected to accelerate.

SpaceX may now be valued at $350 billion, making it the world's most valuable startup. In a tender offer expected to occur later this month, insiders are looking to receive a dramatically higher valuation than the $210 billion figure reported earlier this year.

Starlink is a major contributor to SpaceX’s higher valuation. Starlink’s subscriber base has grown to nearly 5 million users across 114 countries, representing a 100% increase in the past year. This rapid expansion is fueled by the service’s ability to provide high-speed internet to remote and underserved areas.

In addition, the FCC recently approved Starlink for direct-to-cell (DTC) operations on 7,500 second-generation satellites, setting the stage for commercial-scale DTC services in collaboration with partners like T-Mobile by early 2025. With an estimated 6,690 active Starlink satellites currently in orbit, SpaceX represents two-thirds of all operational satellites worldwide, a testament to its dominance in the satellite market.

SpaceX’s launch business is also booming. The company is on track to complete approximately 130 launches in 2024, more than half of all global rocket launches. Its workhorse Falcon 9 rocket, which has completed over 400 successful missions, remains a critical asset. The company’s ability to reduce launch costs by a factor of 10 over the past two decades has made space more accessible and accelerated the deployment of satellites, both for Starlink and SpaceX competitors.

The U.S. government is one of SpaceX’s largest launch customers, with the Defense Department and NASA dependent on the company’s capabilities. Recently, SpaceX secured a $733.5 million contract to execute nine national security missions over the next two years, securing its leadership in the launch market. These missions include deploying missile detection satellites for the Space Development Agency and reconnaissance satellites for the National Reconnaissance Office.

Despite its successes, SpaceX faces significant hurdles as it balances innovation and regulation. SpaceX’s rapid growth has exposed gaps in existing legal frameworks, prompting calls for updated space laws to address the changing environment. “Regulate industries, make them safe, make them right, but you gotta go much faster,” Shotwell said.

The Political Tightrope

Elon Musk’s growing influence in Washington presents opportunities and risks for SpaceX. His close ties to political leaders could help secure favorable contracts and regulatory leniency, potentially fast-tracking SpaceX’s ambitions for Mars colonization and Starlink’s expansion. Such exuberance could be one factor behind the valuation bump. However, Musk's political influence and estimated 42% ownership of SpaceX subject the company to heightened political scrutiny and the appearance of a conflict of interest, particularly as he navigates his role as a government contractor and a private entrepreneur.

With a robust potential valuation of $350 billion, SpaceX cements its lead in the private space industry. The valuation reflects the power of their vertical integration. The company's strategy to control the entire supply chain, from rocket production to launch services to satellite operation, gives SpaceX a significant competitive advantage.

The record valuation is not just good news for SpaceX employees and existing investors. It is good news for the private equity industry, plagued by two years of fundraising down-rounds and missed growth forecasts. It will undoubtedly create a positive tone to end the year for private markets.
