Achieve strong risk-adjusted returns through exposure to a rapidly evolving asset class.

Characterized by a fragmented marketplace with many exchanges and cryptocurrencies, as well as regulatory inconsistencies, the current digital asset market landscape creates an opportunity for a handful of talented fund managers to emerge who know how to extract value from such inefficiencies.

We recognize the untapped potential of investing in these early adopters of alpha-generating digital asset strategies and leverage our vast network to access a diverse universe of “under-the-radar” managers.

A traditional approach to portfolio construction and risk management

We apply extensive risk management and operational expertise to our due diligence process, allowing us to offer cutting-edge opportunities that seek to generate consistent returns while mitigating risk. Managers in which we invest must pass our rigorous fund selection process, resulting in diversification across risk budgets, alpha sources, and protocols.

Quantitative criteria based on factor and scenario analysis
Detailed interviews with principals to ensure best judgement and experience
Thorough evaluation of valuation, policies and procedures, and counterparty risks

We believe rigorous due diligence, combined with transparency and education, results in successful partnerships.

Innovative strategies

Our flagship strategy provides access to a diverse portfolio of market-neutral digital asset managers in beta-neutral strategies such as exchange arbitrage, volatility arbitrage, mean reversion, basis trading, and proprietary algorithmic trading. Investors gain exposure to the outsized return potential of innovative investing, with the defined risk parameters found in more traditional asset classes.
Sharing the same investment philosophy as our flagship market-neutral strategy, our BTC+ strategy provides access to a diverse portfolio of market-neutral digital asset managers who make Bitcoin-denominated trades. All transactions are BTC-denominated, targeting net returns designed to outperform HODLing in place.
Our early-stage blockchain venture strategy takes a methodical, data-driven approach to portfolio construction. We take advantage of deep industry networks to build a properly diversified portfolio of seed-stage blockchain companies and tokens capable of asymmetric payoffs.
