Crypto ETFs.
Built-In Risk Management.
Tax Savings.

Crypto ETFs, or Exchange-Traded Funds, are investment funds that track the performance of cryptocurrencies. They allow investors to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency market without having to buy and store the actual coins. This is particularly appealing for those who are hesitant to navigate the complexities of cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets.

Crypto ETFs work by pooling investors' money to purchase a basket of cryptocurrencies or cryptocurrency-related assets. The fund is then traded on stock exchanges, similar to traditional ETFs. This means that investors can buy and sell shares of the ETF throughout the trading day, providing liquidity and flexibility.

It’s a smart way to get crypto exposure through ETFs instead of owning crypto directly, while using an AI-managed inverse ETF to help smooth out big ups and downs. These trades also create tax losses naturally over time, which could reduce what you owe in taxes.

Nope — you don’t hold crypto directly. You only buy and trade regulated ETFs. That means no wallets, no private keys, and no need to learn how crypto works under the hood.

Additionally, we add an inverse equity component and active risk controls, which help to control risk and volatility, and also let you generate tax losses more consistently than traditional tax-loss harvesting and direct indexing methods.

Think of it like putting your crypto exposure on an adjustable leash:

• In good markets, we “lean in” by holding more crypto ETF exposure.
• As volatility or correlation with equities rises, our AI automatically adds short-side exposure, using inverse equity ETFs as a cushion.

This approach helps control volatility and reduce big drawdowns while you stay invested during market downturns.

In direct indexing, most of your tax losses end after your biggest losses are already gone. But because this strategy uses long and short ETFs (instead of just long ones), it can generate fresh tax losses year after year—even when markets are climbing.

Independent studies, and alphaAI’s own research, show net capital losses can exceed your initial investment in a few years, about 10x what you'd get from direct indexing.

The majority of your losses shouldn’t trigger wash-sale rules. You may run into complications if you trade the same ETFs as we do elsewhere in your portfolio. You can find a list of all ETFs traded in our app. If you're unsure, you might want to check with your tax advisor before getting started.

Each year, you'll receive a 1099‑B form from Alpaca, our brokerage partner. This lists:

• All trades
• Realized gains and any capital-loss carry-forwards

It's especially helpful to have a tax advisor or accountant who understands wash sales and tax loss reporting.
