Dubai, UAE – May 1, 2025 – Sameer Group LLC, a privately held alternative investment firm based in Dubai, announced that its assets under management (AUM) surged from $300 million to $650 million in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 116% increase. This growth was driven by the firm’s long-term Bitcoin holdings and strategic early-stage positions in Solana-based assets.
A significant contributor to this performance was the firm’s Bitcoin treasury, accumulated between 2017 and 2018 as part of a broader macro thesis on digital asset scarcity and long-term store-of-value adoption.
“We made our Bitcoin allocation years ago and didn’t touch it. That’s what made the difference this quarter,” said Syed Sameer, Group CEO. “Our philosophy has always been simple: buy the right assets early, hold through noise, and scale when it counts.”
In addition to Bitcoin, Sameer Group deployed capital into a select group of Solana ecosystem projects over the past 12 months. These included both token investments and strategic equity plays in early-stage infrastructure, tooling, and protocol-layer innovations. Rather than spreading capital thinly across many bets, the firm focused on high-conviction exposure to a small number of builders showing strong product-market fit and community growth.
“We weren’t chasing speculative trends,” said Syed Sameer. “We focused on assets demonstrating real user engagement, clear narrative alignment, and favorable liquidity dynamics. Over the past few quarters, Solana has quietly emerged as the most structurally compelling environment for that.”
Building on this momentum, Sameer Group has announced plans to raise an additional $100 million from a network of Dubai-based institutional investors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals. This capital will be used to expand the firm’s holdings into Binance’s BNB token and TRON (TRX) — two ecosystems the firm believes are well-positioned for sustained growth.
“Binance has shown real long-term commitment to the UAE’s digital asset ecosystem, and BNB remains central to one of the most widely used infrastructures in crypto,” said Syed Sameer. “TRON, under Justin Sun’s leadership, continues to dominate stablecoin settlements and cross-border volume. Both ecosystems are fundamentally strong but still underpriced relative to their utility. This upcoming raise allows us to build deeper exposure to both.”
In addition to its core positions in Bitcoin and Solana, Sameer Group has made several notable strategic investments over the past 12 months. In 2024, the firm participated in a $300 million round into World Liberty Financial ($WLFI), a decentralized finance initiative backed by U.S. President Donald J. Trump. In January 2025, the firm invested $10 million into the Solana Foundation, supporting core development and global expansion. Additionally, Sameer Group made a $10 million allocation into Trump Media & Technology Group in 2024, citing its potential as a politically aligned digital media platform.
