Investment objective
Vision aims to deliver participation in up-trending digital asset markets while reducing drawdowns during adverse regimes. The strategy expresses its view through a curated universe of deeply liquid spot pairs, sized according to systematic factor and sentiment signals, and overlaid with a dynamic hedge that scales with regime deterioration.
Approach
- Universe. A curated, capacity-aware universe of the most liquid digital asset spot pairs on regulated and tier-one venues.
- Signal stack. A composite of momentum, carry, liquidity, and sentiment factors, each specified ex ante and validated out-of-sample.
- Regime overlay. A volatility- and trend-aware module adjusts gross and net exposure as the regime evolves.
- Hedge layer. When regime indicators deteriorate, the strategy reduces gross exposure and introduces systematic hedges, aiming to preserve capital without abandoning the long thesis.
- Execution. In-house smart order routing prioritising maker liquidity and minimising information leakage.
Who it is for
Vision is designed for professional and institutional investors seeking systematic digital asset exposure as part of a diversified portfolio, rather than a passive or discretionary allocation. Typical use cases include a core sleeve inside a digital asset mandate, a satellite position in a multi-asset portfolio, or a regime-aware alternative to buy-and-hold implementations.
Governance
Vision operates inside DFI Labs' institutional governance framework: pre-trade VaR and concentration limits, venue and counterparty exposure caps, daily mark-to-market, transparent attribution, and an explicit capacity limit beyond which new subscriptions are closed.
