What Is EMNAF?
Market Neutral Alpha Fund
EMNAF is a fund of market-neutral funds that seeks to deliver consistent, low-volatility returns independent of market direction, with a primary focus on capital preservation during drawdowns.
By allocating across a curated portfolio of sophisticated, uncorrelated strategies, the fund captures inefficiencies across digital asset markets.
As an absolute return strategy, it compounds alpha steadily over time while minimizing exposure to broader market risk. This approach offers investors a differentiated, stable, institutional-grade allocation within an inherently volatile asset class.
"Investors should think about their crypto allocation as a barbell— it makes sense to have high-beta exposure on one side and strategies designed to compound and protect capital on the other side. That balance is what allows you to stay in the game and capture the full opportunity."
Track Record
Our managers' track record demonstrates consistent, market-neutral alpha generation across varying market conditions, even during the depths of the 2022 bear market.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Equity-like returns at a fraction of the volatility.
Across the 2022–present period, EMNAF's underlying managers have produced returns in the range of broad equity indices while sitting close to the volatility floor of the investable universe — well inside crypto majors and below the S&P 500 and NASDAQ 100.

How Market-Neutral Crypto Funds Fail & How EMNAF Is Designed Differently
Most failures across the category trace back to the same five structural choices. Each row pairs a known failure mode with the EMNAF design response intended to address it.
Counterparty concentration
Too much capital with one exchange, prime, or custody setup.
Redundant counterparties
Multiple exchanges, primes, OTC relationships, and custody paths reduce single-point-of-failure risk.
Trapped collateral
Slow mobility, weak documentation, or no off-exchange settlement rails.
Collateral mobility first
Preference for structures where balances are dispersed, monitored, and moveable under stress.
Crowded trades
Multiple sleeves reaching for the same basis, carry, or venue dislocations.
Diversified return engines
Basis, stat-arb, liquidity provision, yield/carry, and convexity sleeves offset one another.
Hidden beta / leverage
A “neutral” book becomes quietly directional into stress.
Explicit portfolio limits
Beta bands, drawdown targets, and governance authority help keep the book inside mandate.
Yield / rehypothecation
Return enhancement overwhelms the original mandate.
Underwritten controls
Institutional docs, SMA optionality, and ongoing diligence help prevent hidden exposure buildup.
The five failure modes above are the structural drivers most commonly cited in post-mortems of market-neutral crypto fund losses (2020–2024). EMNAF's design responses are mitigants, not guarantees; residual risk remains in every category.
