Summary

BCAP is the world's first tokenized venture capital fund interest, issued in April 2017 as a Regulation D security token. It represents a non-voting economic interest in Blockchain Capital's Fund III. The firm manages $2B+ AUM with portfolio companies including Coinbase, Kraken, and Circle. Key risks include a $6.3M SIM-swap attack on co-founder Bart Stephens, Brock Pierce founding controversy, Epstein/Coinbase periphery connections, and effectively zero secondary market liquidity despite the token wrapper. No SEC enforcement actions exist.
