* Yield is the profit above any gains (or losses) in cryptocurrency holdings (i.e. comparable to returns from staking crypto or USDC). We are delta-0 because we hedge all our crypto risk and do not hold any net crypto exposure on our balance sheet
** Sharpe Ratio is the excess profit above the risk free rate of return per unit of risk (wikipedia definition).
For reference, here are the Sharpe Ratios of some well-known investments:
Bershire Hathaway (2003) = +0.7
Apple (2023) = +1.6
NVIDIA (2023) = +2.6
Renaissance Technologies Medallion Fund (1995-2000) = +2.52
Higher is better (yes, our Sharpe Ratio is that high!)

Investment Strategy

We have developed one of the most sophisticated trading systems in the cryptocurrency industry. Using these systems we trade in the market to generate yield on cryptocurrency and stablecoin tokens.

This means our lenders still see all the gains (or losses) from holding cryptocurrencies, while we generate a positive variable yield against them in excess of the return of the underlying assets.

Some of the open-source software our team has developed is being used by one of the largest cryptocurrency projects in the world.
