: Following BlackRock's experimental footsteps, the Swiss bank is launching a tokenized fund on Ethereum.

A handful of protocols poised to capture to entire market

While traditional tech investments require even mainstream products to constantly fend off competitors, open protocols follow a different path. Once adopted, they grow into resilient open networks, becoming

On top of that, when talking about tokenization, principles from traditional finance apply: established, trusted systems are nearly irreplaceable due to the critical role of security and trust. Liquidity, in turn, reinforces itself—attracting more liquidity.

Put together, it makes sense to expect that 

 decentralized protocols, each specializing in a core function, will make their competition irrelevant and eventually 

On what chain will these protocols be? We believe there's no debate, as explained in our recent Substack 

The sentiment on Ethereum is currently at a historic low, implying an opportunity to acquire associated businesses at an unfairly cheap valuation.

With the above in mind, our title’s intent should now be clear: this is a rare moment to gain 

affordable exposure to global finance’s future revenue streams

The protocols we favor stand out for their lack of relevant competition, first-mover strength, solid leadership, and rapid integration momentum.

In the article, we disclose our trading execution during the largest flash crash of last quarter. This can be viewed as a case study for the kind of move we'll focus on over the coming 6 to 12 months.

In expectation of a large correction, we had executed a significant sell across the entire portfolio, 2 days before the market started to turn.

During this time, we were going through an API key renewal (first time we had to deal with this), therefore our normal execution tools were not functioning.

Unfortunately, the crash happened faster than expected and outside of business hours, leaving us tied to placeholder limit orders set immediately after selling. This should never happen again, we hope to do much better in the future.

In the screenshot above we can see that our placeholder limit order on ZRX was nearly hit. ZRX then surged +300%, while the altcoin market gained ~15%. This is a perfect example of the type of play that we're trying to achieve.

Why is this meant to happen again and again over the next year?

We believe that the next year will be a slow and consistent uptrend with sharp corrections along the way. This scenario presents ongoing opportunities for trading cryptocurrency against cash, which will be our primary focus.

Our smart execution tools are designed to handle our buying plans during upcoming flash crashes, among other things.

Our portfolio aims to be a fundamental lever on Ethereum's growth.

Each token in our portfolio is selected based on its integral role in Ethereum’s infrastructure. These tokens are less speculative because their value and utility are closely tied to the volume of activity on the Ethereum blockchain.

This approach ensures that as Ethereum activity grows, so does the intrinsic value of the assets within our portfolio. Hence why our portfolio is referred to as a fundamental leverage on ETH.
