Episode 36 / Portfolio Climbs 9.37% Following Bitcoin Halving

| Weekly updates | 19 seen

The TerraMatris crypto hedge fund closed the week ending April 25, 2024, on a strong note, posting a portfolio value of $2,050.41. This marks a $175.68 gain or an impressive 9.37% increase compared to the previous week.

This week’s positive performance is a testament to TerraMatris’s strategy of steady, systematic trading—focusing on selling options (puts and covered calls) on major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL), while reinvesting premiums into spot holdings to compound returns over time.

The broader crypto market was energized by a major milestone: the long-anticipated Bitcoin halving event occurred on April 19, 2024. As a result, Bitcoin mining rewards were slashed from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC per block, cutting new supply into the…

Episode 35 / Ethereum Drops Below $1,900: Weekly Crypto Fund Down Nearly 10%

| Weekly updates | 21 seen

As of April 18, 2024, the fund’s value has declined to $1,874.73, marking a -9.87% drop week-over-week, equivalent to a -$205.23 decrease in dollar terms. This marks one of the steepest weekly losses in recent memory and underscores the heightened volatility across the cryptocurrency market.

Ethereum (ETH), which often acts as a bellwether for broader altcoin sentiment, was particularly hard-hit this week. The price tumbled below the critical $1,900 level, landing at approximately $1,875. This represents a dramatic correction and brings ETH back to levels not seen in months.

The downturn comes just as investors were preparing for Bitcoin's highly anticipated halving event, scheduled for April 19, 2024. Historically, halvings tend to spark bullish narratives, but this time…

Episode 15 / Crypto Hedge Fund Hits $249.75 All-Time High

| Weekly updates | 3 seen

On November 30, 2023, the Terramatris crypto fund reached a total value of $249.75, marking a weekly increase of $25.31—a gain of 11.28% for the week.

In plain terms: this was another strong compounding week, pushing the fund deeper into the mid-$200 range while keeping returns firmly in double digits.

Late 2023 market commentary frequently pointed to spot Bitcoin ETF optimism as a key driver of sentiment, alongside a broader easing of “tail risk” in crypto markets. Grayscale’s November 2023 market note specifically highlights ETF optimism as a major narrative and discusses a broader market recovery dynamic during the month.

That backdrop fits the numbers this week: BTC was modestly up, ETH slightly down, yet Terramatris delivered a double-digit gain, suggesting…

Episode 13 / ETH & BTC Options Strategy: Fund Hits $187.8 (+15.08%)

| Weekly updates | 3 seen

On November 16, 2023, the Terramatris crypto fund reached a total value of $187.83, marking a weekly increase of $24.61—a gain of 15.08%.

In early November 2023, Bitcoin’s move above $37,000 was widely framed as being driven by spot Bitcoin ETF optimism. 
By Nov 16, however, the CoinMarketCap snapshot shows BTC slightly down on a 7-day basis and ETH down more sharply—i.e., the market was no longer in a straight-line rally across majors.

Against that backdrop, the fund’s +15.08% stands out as performance that wasn’t simply “the market went up."

Episode 11 / Fund Climbs to $140.64

| Weekly updates | 4 seen

On November 2, 2023, the Terramatris crypto fund reached a total value of $140.64, posting a weekly increase of $16.62—a gain of 13.40%.

Late October 2023’s rally was widely tied to spot Bitcoin ETF optimism, with reporting noting Bitcoin’s surge to around $35,000 as markets priced in a higher likelihood of ETF approval.

Week 11 is a clean “compounding” week: Terramatris rose to $140.64 (+13.40%) while BTC moved modestly higher and ETH was essentially flat on the 7-day measure—meaning the fund’s gain likely came from portfolio specifics rather than a simple BTC/ETH beta lift.
