How are my assets held and secured?
All digital assets are secured using Fireblocks. It provides an institutional-grade security infrastructure that forms the backbone of our digital asset custody and transfer system. The platform employs a unique Multi-Party Computation (MPC-CMP) technology combined with Intel SGX secure enclaves, eliminating the single point of failure inherent in traditional private key management. This patent-pending technology secures private keys by splitting them into multiple shares, ensuring no complete key ever exists in a single location. The platform's security architecture is further enhanced by its Secure Transfer Environment, which creates isolated execution environments for all transactions, protecting against cyber attacks, internal collusion, and human error. Fireblocks' security infrastructure is regularly audited by leading firms and has achieved SOC 2 Type II certification, while also maintaining insurance coverage for assets in storage and transit. The platform's policy engine enables us to implement robust governance controls, including customizable approval policies, transaction limits, and address whitelisting, providing multiple layers of security for our digital asset operations.
How does your trading technology work to optimize returns?
Our trading technology framework is built on rigorous quantitative methodologies that follow a comprehensive three-phase development and deployment process:
In the initial phase, we employ a scientific, data-driven approach to validate trading hypotheses through extensive backtesting. This process involves testing strategies against historical market data using sophisticated statistical methods and machine learning techniques. Our backtesting environment simulates real market conditions, including transaction costs, market impact, and varying liquidity conditions, ensuring that strategy performance metrics are realistic and achievable.
The second phase focuses on out-of-sample validation, where we test our strategies against previously unused market data to prevent overfitting and confirm the robustness of our models. This critical step helps ensure that our strategies' performance is genuinely predictive rather than merely descriptive of historical data. Finally, strategies that pass these rigorous testing phases enter a live production testing environment, where they operate with limited capital under real market conditions. This graduated deployment approach allows us to monitor strategy performance, verify execution efficiency, and fine-tune risk parameters before full-scale implementation. Throughout all phases, our technology stack maintains detailed performance analytics, risk metrics, and transaction logs, enabling continuous optimization and refinement of our trading strategies.
