Crypto Hedge Fund

Terramatris is a DeFI (Solana Blockchain) crypto investment hedge fund started on August 22, 2023, by Reinis Fischer

The fund operates in a hybrid mode utilizing the decentralized exchange (DEX) platform Raydium Automated Market Maker (AMM), while maintaining a private ownership structure. Although not currently registered publicly under any specific jurisdiction, its operational base primarily resides in Tbilisi, Georgia.

We are exploring the possibility of incorporating the fund in jurisdictions such as Panama, Dubai, the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin Islands, or other tax-friendly locations once the total value of the fund reaches at least $10,000.

Funds performance (Weekly results)

Trading strategy

We trade options with crypto, while reinvesting premiums back into different crypto assets. At the moment we are growing our crypto portfolio by selling put options on Bitcoin (sometimes also on Ethereum and/or Solana). Once we will have at least 0.1 ETH or 0.01 BTC we will start selling covered calls on these positions to boost the total return. We already have started selling covered calls on Solana.  Occasionally we might sell covered calls on long ETH futures. Additionally we perform carry trades on crypto, collecting funding fees.

When placing our options trades we aim for about 0.8-1% daily in options premium, from the total fund's value, while in the early days of the fund we were more risk hungry and were growing 1-2% daily.  

Crypto Research & Analytics

Prior to executing our options trades, we meticulously analyze options Greeks and employ technical analysis methodologies to enhance our comprehensive understanding of the market. Continuously, we actively participate in the cryptocurrency community, diligently scouting emerging altcoins and engaging in crypto networking activities to remain abreast of market developments and opportunities. 

Some of our observations are published on our blog and on the fund manager's YouTube channel

Risk management

As we grow our portfolio from selling put options, we also hedge the portfolio both with options and futures. In case of a suffering put option, we try to roll it down and forward, preferably for a credit. In rare cases, we might take an assignment and switch to covered call writing using futures with leverage as collateral instead of actual coins.

For protecting against market crashes, we constantly buy > 45 DTE put options as a protection for the portfolio.

Trading volume (Options)

In a remarkable feat of growth, Terramatris crypto hedge fund, achieved a nearly 20-fold increase in monthly trading volume throughout 2023. Starting from a modest $10,000 in August, the fund saw a substantial surge, reaching an impressive $200,000 by December.  

Looking ahead we are aiming to propel the trading volume to an impressive $1 million by the close of 2024.

Trading volume is directly related to our position sizes and risk/reward ratio.  

Holdings / Assets Under Management (AUM)

Our portfolio experiences growth through various channels, including put premiums, cryptocurrency appreciation, management fees, and performance fees. Additionally, we occasionally receive complimentary coins through airdrops, such as the recent distribution of 200 JUP coins. A portion of our portfolio is allocated to staking, specifically in RAY
