> The crypto investment firm’s backers will pursue separate strategies after the company winds down. Its formal liquidation is scheduled for Jan. 31, 2027.

Deus X Capital has stopped operations and plans to enter formal liquidation by Jan. 31, 2027, ending the crypto investment firm’s strategy under its family-office-backed structure.

The firm’s investors will split into independent investment strategies as the wind-down proceeds. Chief Investment Officer Stuart Connolly will remain in place to manage the transition, while some portfolio companies will continue operating with participation from their existing shareholders.

Deus X Capital was established in October 2023 with $1 billion in existing investments and capital available for deployment. Its mandate covered digital assets, blockchain, financial technology, institutional capital markets, private equity, venture capital and hedge-fund allocations.

The firm’s early investments included stakes in Galaxy Digital and asset manager Hilbert Group. It maintained operations in Malta, London and the United Arab Emirates.

The family investors are also separating their activities. Shane Morton is building Darius, an artificial-intelligence-focused venture, while Owen Morton and Jason Morton are forming 95, focused on markets and financial technology. Tim Grant, who led Deus X Capital and previously held a senior role at Galaxy Digital, will become chief executive of TensorX, an artificial-intelligence business owned by Darius.

The formal liquidation is scheduled for Jan. 31, 2027.
