The real problem

Buying it is easy. Holding it is the hard part.

Every page about IBIT compares fees and issuers. Almost none of them tell you what to do once you own it. Here is what actually gets in the way.

01

The drawdown problem

Bitcoin has lost most of its value more than once and come back. Sitting through that is the part people fail, usually near the bottom.

02

The 24/7 problem

Crypto markets trade all night and all weekend. The ETF does not. You watch moves you cannot act on until the market opens.

03

The conviction problem

Every big drop makes you relitigate the whole decision. That tends to happen at exactly the wrong moment.

04

The all-or-nothing problem

On your own, the choice is in or out. There is no dial in between, so you end up doing nothing and hoping.

None of these are knowledge problems. They are execution problems.
That is the part we automate.

How it works

A crypto ETF core, with a hedge that comes and goes.

We hold the crypto ETF position the whole time. There is no leverage here. What changes is how much cash is held and how much of the hedge is on. Every trading day, the system checks conditions and sets the mix.

◎

The core never moves. Only the cash and the hedge change. So you keep your crypto ETF exposure the whole way through, and the hedge is what softens a sustained downtrend.

Core

IBIT · GDLC

A spot bitcoin ETF alongside a diversified crypto ETF. Held in every state, never sold as part of the strategy.

Hedge

SBIT

Inverse bitcoin exposure. Applied in varying amounts as conditions deteriorate, and removed when they improve.

Cash

Cash

Whatever is not allocated to the core or the hedge. Cash is a position the system takes deliberately.

◐

Checked every day

The market gets read every trading day, whether you are watching or not.

⊘

Rules, not feelings

The system does not panic, and it does not get greedy near a high.

↕

A dial, not a switch

The hedge goes on in steps instead of all in or all out.

↻

No leverage

Crypto ETFs are volatile enough already. This strategy manages exposure rather than amplifying it.

Allocations shown are illustrative examples of how exposure can shift, not actual or recommended allocations. Actual positioning varies with market conditions. All investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal.

Questions people ask before they start

Three things. IBIT, a spot bitcoin ETF, and GDLC, a diversified crypto ETF, make up the core and stay in place at all times. SBIT is the inverse bitcoin fund used as a hedge, applied in varying amounts as conditions deteriorate. Anything not allocated sits in cash. You can see the exact holdings in your account at any time.

No. There is no leveraged sleeve here. Crypto ETFs are volatile enough on their own, so the strategy manages how much exposure you carry rather than amplifying it.

None of them are held by this strategy, but they come up often, so here is how they compare. FBTC from Fidelity, ARKB from ARK and 21Shares, BITB from Bitwise, HODL from VanEck and GBTC from Grayscale are all spot bitcoin ETFs like IBIT, differing mainly on issuer and expense ratio. BITI is an inverse bitcoin fund like SBIT. BITU seeks two times daily bitcoin exposure. BITO holds bitcoin futures rather than spot bitcoin. This strategy uses IBIT and GDLC for the core and SBIT for the hedge.

IBIT gives you bitcoin directly. GDLC gives you a diversified basket of large crypto assets, so the core is not entirely dependent on one coin. Holding both means the position is broader than bitcoin alone while still being mostly bitcoin.

SBIT moves in the opposite direction of bitcoin. The strategy applies it in a sustained downtrend and removes it when conditions improve. It is a hedge against part of the core, not a bet against crypto assets.

You can, and plenty of people do. The thing to weigh is that bitcoin has fallen a long way more than once. Holding through that with no hedge and no cash is a choice, and most people discover partway down that it was not the choice they thought they were making.

No. The strategy holds exchange-traded funds in a regular brokerage account. There are no exchanges, wallets or private keys involved, and nothing is held on a crypto platform.

Crypto assets are extremely volatile and can lose a large share of their value quickly. The funds used here carry their own risks, including tracking differences from the assets they hold, custody arrangements at the fund level, and regulatory change. The inverse fund resets daily, so its returns over periods longer than a day can differ from the inverse of bitcoin over the same period. Managing the position does not remove any of this.

A lot. This is among the highest-risk strategies we offer. The system reduces exposure and can hedge, but it cannot prevent losses and it will not get out at the top. Only use money you can afford to lose entirely.

No. It is built as a slice. Most people pair it with a Core model portfolio holding the bulk of their money and keep this as the smaller, higher-risk piece. You choose the size.

0.50% per year on assets under management, or $4 a month for accounts under $10,000. The minimum to start is $1,000. Your account is held at Alpaca Securities LLC, a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA and SIPC. alphaAI Capital never holds your money directly.

Yes, any time. There is no lock-in and no performance fee. You can change how much is allocated, switch strategies, or withdraw.
