The Digital Income Fund – Digital Income Class (the Fund) (for wholesale investors) aims to deliver returns by capturing volatility and arbitrage opportunities in digital asset currencies.
Rather than buying Bitcoin or Ethereum for upward price movement, the Fund seeks to profit from volatility and price inefficiencies in the Bitcoin and Ethereum futures markets. By leveraging advanced, high-frequency algorithmic trading technology developed by Digital Asset Funds Management (DAFM), the Fund seeks to profit from volatility and pricing inefficiencies across global digital asset exchanges.
This Fund focuses on arbitrage and carry trades, with no net long exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum, aiming to deliver returns regardless of whether prices are rising or falling.
