<h2>SkyBridge Paused Withdrawals From Legion Strategies Fund</h2>
SkyBridge announced a plan to launch the new fund a day after stopping withdrawals from Legion Strategies. The fund's performance decline due to its significant exposure to cryptocurrencies is said to be what led to the suspension.

The Legion Strategies Fund invested in several private businesses, including the <a href="https://ftx.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">FTX</a> cryptocurrency exchange. Additionally, it has exposure to cryptocurrencies like bitcoin through SkyBridge-managed funds. Last March, SkyBridge applied for the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) permission to launch an exchange-traded fund for spot bitcoin. The SEC later rejected the plan. As stated by Scaramucci in a May interview, the investment company started making bitcoin investments by the end of 2020.
