Crypto investment strategy with market-adaptive positioning
A systematic multi-factor approach to timing, positioning and risk control across the different phases of the crypto market.
Why active crypto asset management?
Crypto assets move in pronounced cycles and are often marked by high volatility, rapid shifts in liquidity and changing market regimes. A purely passive buy-and-hold approach accepts these considerable swings in full. Digital Estate therefore follows an active, market-adaptive approach in which market exposure and positioning can be adjusted to the prevailing environment.

Market-adaptive crypto strategy: long & short
The DEUS Alpha Quant strategy does not rely on crypto markets rising indefinitely. Depending on the market regime, it can use long and short positioning as well as reduced exposure. The aim is controlled participation in market moves (Volatility Farming), not permanently maximal exposure and market risk.
Trade execution by risk classification
A signal alone does not make a trade. Position size, stop-loss logic, liquidity, correlations and the portfolio's overall exposure and risk determine how an individual trading set-up is assessed and actually executed.

Implementing the strategy through individual mandates
The strategy can be implemented within individually managed Segregated Managed Accounts (SMA). This allows the risk profile and mandate parameters to be aligned with each investor.
