Our price targets on Titan Crypto holdings
Have you heard? Last week, we officially launched Titan Crypto, our expert-managed portfolio of cryptoassets that we believe are positioned for outstanding long-term returns with minimal correlation to U.S. equities and with attractive hedging qualities.
Our goal at Titan is to outperform our benchmarks on an after-fees basis. Since our inception on 8/10, we've generated ~5% of alpha above our benchmark (the Bitwise 10 Large Cap Crypto Index*) mainly driven by our bullish bets on Cardano (+32.4%) and Stellar (+24.8%) paying off early.
Our clients who invested in Titan Crypto have seen ~8.5% gains in their crypto portfolio in a matter of days.
We believe crypto has a massive runway ahead. Adoption of cryptocurrencies and blockchain protocols is exploding, and we expect this trend to prove structural and long-term in nature, driving significant returns for crypto investors.
Performance reflects returns from Titan Crypto's Inception Date of 8/10 4PM ET through 8/16 4PM ET.

Under the hood of Titan Crypto
For months, our team has been conducting deep fundamental and quantitative research to identify what we believe to be the highest quality cryptoassets for the next 3-5+ years.
We've constructed a concentrated yet balanced portfolio of these cryptoassets, with strict controls to attempt to mitigate risk and to screen out assets that we believe entail outsized risks around custody, liquidity, regulatory, and other concerns.
We then determine the appropriate weightings into each cryptoasset, based on our conviction. We'll be regularly and tactically changing these weights (and rebalancing to them) during periods of excess volatility in an attempt to maximize risk/reward.
