"Running for 134 days with a profit of 133.99%," this is the final profit situation of the first subjective option strategy "Liuyuan No. 1" released by miner Zhaobei on the Matrixport platform when it closed on May 2nd. Zhaobei also became famous for the operating profit of this product and was chased by group members to "quickly open a new strategy and participate in the next subscription."

On May 7th, the second phase product "Liuyuan No. 2" was launched for subscription, starting at 5 ETH with a target profit rate of 3 times, and it was sought after by users, hoping for the legendary profit to reappear.

The "Liuyuan" option strategy series released by miner Zhaobei on the Matrixport platform is an actively managed option strategy product. Its operation mechanism is similar to traditional financial fund products, that is, by securitizing the option product strategy fund for user investment, specialized traders (similar to the role of "fund manager") will trade on behalf of the users, and then share the profits. Novice users do not need to learn or understand the knowledge and operational logic behind options, and can quickly participate in option investment.

The success of the "Liuyuan" option strategy is inseparable from the support and technical assistance provided by the Matrixport platform, which has prompted the generation of subjective strategies and other strategy investment products.

Through the strategy investment products on the Matrixport platform, professional traders with technical expertise can securitize their trading strategies, and after users subscribe to "fund" shares, they can participate. Traders will flexibly adjust the investment portfolio according to market conditions to obtain the best investment returns, and the portion of the returns obtained by users only needs to be shared with the trader at the end of the "fund."

Currently, the strategy investment products on the Matrixport platform cover quantitative strategies (arbitrage, CTA trend tracking, long and short), subjective trading strategies, and private domain strategies, which can meet the needs and risk preferences of different investors.

Matrixport Investment Strategy Products Stand Out

Since reaching a high of $70,000 in March, BTC has entered a period of volatility, with prices fluctuating violently between $60,000 and $70,000, and the frequency of long and short contract liquidations continues to increase. According to Coinglass data, the daily average value of BTC long and short contract liquidations exceeded $200 million in the past two months, with a high of $1.16 billion on March 5th and over $900 million on April 12th and 13th. In the face of unclear future market trends, the demand for stable investment methods or strategies to obtain stable returns is increasing among users.

Around the stability of crypto assets, off-chain exchanges have long launched arbitrage, fixed income, and other financial products, while on-chain products such as lending, staking income, and LST and derivative LRT products have emerged one after another. However, for users, on-chain staking products have a higher participation threshold due to gas fees and complex operational processes, making investment products on centralized platforms a better choice in terms of user experience.

As a one-stop cryptocurrency financial services platform, Matrixport has also launched a variety of crypto financial products tailored to different risk preferences, including current deposits, loans, fixed income, dual-currency investments, and snowball strategy investments, which are highly favored by users. In the recent intense fluctuations in the crypto market, the outstanding performance of the subjective trading strategy in Matrixport's strategy investment products has attracted attention from the crypto community. As of May 20th, the absolute returns of multiple products still remain above 50%.

Compared to fixed income products in the crypto market, Matrixport's strategy investment products have shown superior performance in capturing excess returns. How to participate in strategy investments on the Matrixport platform, especially in quantitative investments, has become a new topic of discussion in the crypto community.

Quantitative investment involves transforming investment concepts, market rules, market data, and trading strategies into specific data models and algorithms, and then using algorithm models to process massive historical data to identify price movement patterns, predict future performance, formulate trading strategies, and achieve stable returns. Due to its stable performance, diversified investment, and rational investment advantages, it is known as a tool for navigating "bull and bear" markets.

However, due to the high entry threshold for "quantitative trading," in addition to basic investment and trading knowledge, traders also need a strong background in mathematics and statistics, as well as professional financial literacy, such as statistics, financial market theory, and programming skills (such as Python), to support the development and testing of trading strategy models, which is usually considered an investment method that only professional institutions can accomplish. Currently, most participants in quantitative trading in the crypto market are institutional investors, market makers, and technically savvy large-scale investors.

The strategy investment products on the Matrixport platform have perfectly addressed these pain points for users, lowering the participation threshold for quantitative products. By securitizing quantitative strategy products under the guise of "cutting-edge," even novices do not need to understand the trading and technical knowledge behind quantitative strategies. They only need to subscribe to the shares of relevant strategy products to enjoy the future returns brought by quantitative strategies and capture excess returns.

How to Choose the Right Matrixport Strategy Investment?

According to different user groups, the strategy investment products on Matrixport can be divided into two categories: products for the general public and products for private domain traffic, which are not publicly available.

The strategy products for the general public consist of quantitative strategies, subjective trading, and Arbitrage Bao.

Quantitative strategies also include arbitrage strategies, long and short strategies, and CTA trend strategies. It is worth mentioning that some products in the quantitative strategy products are customized for users by well-known quantitative teams invited by Matrixport, including Luxtech Capital (managing capital exceeding $10 billion), Hashingbot team, Pythagoras Investments, BQUANT Technology, etc. The Pythagoras BTC long and short strategy and Pythagoras USDT long and short strategy currently on sale have both been awarded the "Best Digital Hedge Strategy of 2022" by HFM Hedgeweek.

Subjective trading strategies are mainly actively trading strategies customized by professionals or KOLs. They can dynamically adjust strategies according to market conditions to obtain the best returns. Miner Zhaobei's "Liuyuan" series of subjective option strategy products belong to this category.

Arbitrage Bao is a current arbitrage product mainly based on funding rate arbitrage strategies, and is beginner-friendly. This product is similar to traditional money market funds such as Alipay's Yu'ebao, with low risk, low investment threshold, no lock-up period, and no subscription or redemption fees, supporting users to subscribe and redeem at any time. According to official information, the annualized return rate of Arbitrage Bao is close to 20% for 90 days, with a minimum purchase of 500 USDT.

If users want to understand the specific strategies, historical return rates, team co-investment, fees, and other details of different products in detail, they can open the app and click on the "Strategy Investment" in the homepage navigation bar to view relevant information.

Private domain strategies targeting specific user groups are only open to specific user groups. After the private domain strategy is successfully created, the system will automatically generate an invitation code. "Fund managers" can share the invitation code within the private domain traffic, and only those who use the invitation code can access and subscribe to the private domain strategy product.

Private domain strategies can be created by anyone, and the invitation code mechanism can reduce user investment risks, allowing the creators of private domain strategies to better manage products based on a trust mechanism.

Currently, well-known analysts such as Markus, Professor Wesley, and trader Qingtian have joined Matrixport and created private domain strategies.

However, Matrixport has now developed the "Private Domain Selection" function. High-quality private domain strategy products that meet the assessment criteria can apply for "public transfer," opening up to all users and providing more investment choices for users.

Regarding funding rates, the fee standards for each strategy product on Matrixport have been clearly marked in the investment rules. Typically, the strategy issuer charges a performance fee, but this is only applicable to positive returns.

In terms of fund and product security, Matrixport states that its quantitative strategy products strictly adhere to traditional financial regulatory standards, safeguarding user assets through asset management separation. The quantitative team only has trading rights and no asset withdrawal rights.

At the same time, every quantitative strategy product launched on the Matrixport platform has undergone official screening. Before the issuance of quantitative strategies, the Matrixport strategy investment team conducts a complete process of risk control, due diligence, data analysis, and profit testing on the products. Only after passing these processes will the products be finally launched. After being listed, the performance indicators of the strategies are monitored to ensure the effective implementation of the strategies to achieve the desired APY.

As of May 20th, there are over 40 strategy investment products for the general public on Matrixport, with multiple products having absolute return rates of over 100%, and several new strategies are still under review. However, it is important to note that the final returns of strategy investment products depend on the net value performance after investment. Historical and target return data are only references for strategy returns, and not explicit return commitments.

Building a Comprehensive Crypto Asset Management Empire

If the "Dual Currency Wealth Management" launched by Matrixport 5 years ago was the pioneering product in crypto wealth management, then the current strategy investment products are another ace product for Matrixport. By securitizing complex strategy products, it has lowered the entry barriers for ordinary users to enter the field of crypto asset investment, while opening up new opportunities for the innovation and development of crypto wealth management products.

Established with the participation of Wu Jihan, Matrixport mainly provides trading, lending, custody, and payment services for digital assets to institutions and qualified individual users, covering low, medium, and high levels of risk, suitable for most users who want to earn returns using cryptocurrencies. It was valued at $1 billion and completed a $100 million Series C financing in 2021, with well-known investment institutions such as IDG Capital and Lightspeed participating in the investment, making it a unicorn enterprise in the crypto field.

Currently, Matrixport has a trading volume of $7 billion, a loan balance of $200 million, and manages and custodies $6 billion, with over 300 employees worldwide.

The reason behind Matrixport's 5 years of normal operation without errors is its consistent focus on asset security. It not only has independently developed institutional-grade third-party custody solution Cactus Custody, but also deploys bank-level data centers, benchmarking traditional finance.

In terms of compliance promotion, Matrixport holds a Hong Kong trust company license, a money lender license, an FCA compliance authorized representative company in the UK, and is a member of the Swiss FINMA SRO-VFQ.

Unlike exchanges, Matrixport, as a one-stop crypto financial services platform, aims to help users earn returns using their cryptocurrencies. It has invested a lot of effort in product development and construction, like a humble monk quietly doing practical work, always starting from the interests of users, contributing to the construction of a crypto asset management empire.

In terms of product functionality, Matrixport not only provides a range of services from depositing to asset appreciation, including OTC trading, fixed income, strategy products, current deposits, lending, and asset management, but also integrates spot and contract functions from Binance and OKX. Whether individual investors or institutional clients, Matrixport can meet their investment and wealth management needs.

This means that on the Matrixport platform, users can complete a closed-loop process of crypto asset operation from depositing, trading, custody, wealth management, to withdrawal, making it a true gateway for users to navigate Web3 finance.

In its business lines, Matrixport has products such as the crypto exchange Bit.com, custody institution Cactus Custody, RWA digital asset platform MatrixDock, and investment institution Matrixport Ventures, covering multiple business lines such as asset trading, custody, wealth management, and early deployment of high-quality assets.

Recently, Matrixport Ventures has participated in large-scale financing for several well-known projects, including $9 million in financing for social infrastructure UXLINK and a $5 million seed round for BounceBit.

Matrixport is not just a simple crypto asset management company, but also a key driver of innovation in crypto financial products, striving to make crypto asset management gradually become a part of the mainstream financial world.
