In traditional and crypto markets, "directional risk" refers to the exposure an investor has to price movements—whether the market moves up or down. For most investors, profit is tied to the market going in a specific direction. But what happens when the market moves against you? At Edge Capital, we eliminate this risk through a market-neutral approach. How? By carefully hedging our positions using tools like futures and options, we ensure that our portfolio is not dependent on the prices of assets like Bitcoin or Ethereum rising or falling. Instead, we generate returns from trading fees, funding rates, and liquidity provision in DeFi protocols—without betting on the market’s direction. Why’s this important? Crypto markets are highly volatile and unpredictable. By removing directional risk, Edge Capital offers a way for investors to earn consistent returns, regardless of market fluctuations. This strategy reduces the impact of market shocks, downturns, and sudden price swings. How Edge Capital applies this strategy: • Liquidity Provision and Market-Making: Edge Capital provides liquidity in DeFi protocols, earning trading fees and rewards without exposure to the underlying asset’s price. Whether the market moves up or down, our liquidity positions continue to generate consistent returns. • Arbitrage Opportunities: We take advantage of pricing inefficiencies across different platforms or markets. For example, cross-chain arbitrage and interest rate arbitrage allow us to profit from price differences or funding rates between different DeFi protocols and exchanges—again, without taking a directional bet on asset prices. • Hedging for Safety: To further mitigate risk, we implement customized hedging strategies. By using options and futures contracts, we protect against adverse market movements and unexpected downturns. #Crypto #CryptoInvesting #CryptoTrading #DeFi #MarketNeutral #Hedging #RiskManagement #DirectionalRisk #LiquidityProvision #MarketMaking #Arbitrage #CryptoArbitrage #CrossChainArbitrage #InterestRateArbitrage #Futures #Options #HedgingStrategy #CryptoStrategy #InvestmentStrategy #VolatilityProtection #MarketVolatility #StableReturns #CryptoReturns #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Blockchain #DecentralizedFinance

About our Market-Neutral DeFi Macro Strategy Edge runs a liquid fund that generates yield through alpha-generating market-neutral strategies uncorrelated to the market across CeFi and DeFi. Edge invests across 20+ blockchains and has invested into 150+ protocols over the past four years. Edge is one of the biggest TVL providers on-chains and support early-stage protocols by providing initial liquidity. Here’s a breakdown: • Allocations: A substantial portion of our portfolio is staked in DeFi liquidity pools, including stablecoins and non-stable coins. We also employ algorithmic hedging using futures, options, and repo agreements, and capitalize on arbitrage opportunities using derivatives. The strategy covers the full spectrum of CeFi and DeFi trading opportunities, including: • Liquid restaking: Earning rewards for verifying network transactions. • Smart contract opportunities: Recursive lending and yield trading. • Yield farming: Earning rewards by providing liquidity to decentralized exchanges. • Leveraged basis trades. • Sizing and Turnover: Our positions are sized based on potential profit and loss, risk, liquidity, and correlation among assets. Typically, we maintain 5-20 positions, with a holding period of 1-6 months. Annual turnover is approximately 10x. • Risk Management: We integrate continuous stress-testing, strict risk limits, and independent risk monitoring. We use hedging strategies that involve buying protection on liquid crypto assets, with payments settled in USD. We also employ cyber insurance against potential smart contract failures.
