Values

Professionalism · Integrity · Long-termism · LP interests first

Core team

Three specialist functions working in parallel

Investment, brokerage and technology & operations work together to cover the full path from sourcing to exit.

Mr. Dai Yue

Founder and Chief Investment Officer

Investing in domain names since 2004, with over 20 years of domain investment experience
Has handled domain transactions worth more than RMB 500 million for major internet companies
A distinctive eye for domain value, having invested across the internet, mobile internet and AI cycles

Investment team

On average more than 10 years of domain investment experience across multiple industry cycles. Responsible for sourcing, valuation and portfolio management.

Brokerage

Technology & operations

Competitive moat

Three resources that pure financial investors cannot replicate

Moat one

DN.com trading platform resources

Global trading network and liquidity

Access to DN.com's trading platform, giving priority access to quality assets and lower acquisition costs
Transaction data from the DN.com platform gives the Fund's AI valuation models live market evidence, improving pricing accuracy
A multi-channel exit network supports asset liquidity and reduces reliance on any single channel

Moat two

Brokerage network

End-buyer relationships and premium exits

Shared access to the end-buyer relationships of a professional brokerage team, covering leaders in the internet, blockchain and AI sectors
We approach end buyers proactively to pursue premium exits rather than waiting for inbound enquiries
A new-media matrix and CEO network put sale information in front of hundreds of thousands of target buyers quickly

Moat three

Global partner channels

Global reach and information advantage

Deep partnerships with mainstream global registrars, marketplaces and auction houses
Early sight of quality domains coming to market worldwide and of industry developments
A Hong Kong plus Singapore footprint connects the Fund to global capital and industry resources

How the three reinforce each other: sourcing → investment management → exit, an end-to-end capability that forms a core moat pure financial investors cannot replicate.
