Aquion Altitude Fund

Thematic Approach. Allocating towards multiple altcoin sectors based on themes and narratives that appear positioned to experience outsized capital in flows during the next crypto cycle.

Market Cap Diversification. From large cap ETH competitors, memes, low cap coins and NFTs, we hold a large basket of 70-90 coins. Sector and asset weighting is a combination of market cap and relative strength of price to the market index. For medium and low cap coins, we use DEXs and various bridges to allocate before the coins are listed on major exchanges.

VC Style Investing. For the low cap sector of the portfolio we purchase and hold a broad range of deeply researched coins that fit certain metrics such as actual real-world use case, fully diluted market cap, liquidity locks, token vesting, doxxed dev team, etc.

Relative Strength. Is one of the few enduring strategies across long historical periods and diverse asset classes with proven outperformance. We closely monitor every asset, trimming or closing weak positions while rolling those funds into wining positions or new assets on deck that have proven themselves with strength.

Refined Version. Last cycle we exited early 2022 after capturing 10x deploying a similar yet less refined strategy, entering and exiting the market at roughly the correct times.

Timing. Broadly we attempt to allocate and terminate the portfolio at a favorable time. This will not be perfect. Timing decisions are based on years of experience with fundamental, technical and sentiment analysis in crypto.

Managing Profits. Lock in profits when coins pump and recycle those gains back into the coins demonstrating strength, but not euphoria while culling under performing assets. - Avoid weakness, buy strength, sell euphoria.

No Leverage. As alts are a leveraged play on crypto there is no need or reason to use leverage in an attempt to increase gains.

Cold Storage. At any given time 90% of all assets and coins are held in self custody cold storage wallets using industry best practices and technology that has stood the test of time during past bull and bear markets in crypto. Allocating happens from hardware cold storage wallets for transaction signing, which greatly minimizes the risk of losing funds on a CEX or in liquidity pools for swaps on DEXs. Backup seed phrases are held in multiple institutional third party off-site secure locations.

Time Horizon. We estimate the fund to be viable over the next two-three years before retiring the fund, returning proceeds to investors or rolling gains into our other non crypto strategies.
