BTC long-short basis.

The published mandate behind the lead strategy sleeve. Asset universe, exposure bands, hard risk limits, and rebalancing cadence — written down, audited, and enforceable against the daily PnL the desk signs.

Why this page

Every sleeve on the desk has a written mandate. The BTC long-short basis carries the directional exposure budget; the remaining sleeves (ETH staking-spread, SOL momentum + carry, stable & basis basket) share the same risk lot. The live status block below reflects the sleeve's current mode and rebalance timestamp.

Mandate thesis

BTC long-short bears the directional exposure budget for the desk. Perp-curve, ETF creation and redemption tape (IBIT, FBTC), and miner-flow overlays are sized off realised volatility and the funding term structure so the sleeve stays inside its drawdown and leverage caps while expressing a deliberate, audited view on BTC.
