Updated performance of CMFDH I and CMFDH II
Q1 2025 Performance – Crypto Money Fund Dollar Hedge II (CMFDH II)
In the first quarter of 2025, CMFDH II recorded a net loss of –8.45% in
U.S. dollar terms. However, the Bitcoin allocation delivered stronger
results, with total BTC holdings increasing by 5%, supported by a hedge
structure designed to pay out in Bitcoin rather than dollars.
Since inception in 2019, the combined performance of both funds has
delivered a compounded return of 1704% and an annualized return of 65%
over five and three-quarter years, when measured in dollars.
The current strategy involves a higher degree of beta exposure compared to
the original fund, resulting in increased sensitivity to market
volatility. One minor deviation from the core strategy occurred during the
quarter, leading to a loss of less than 0.1%, which had no material effect
on overall performance.
Testimonials
"Nicholas is a trusted old friend whom I have known for over 30 years, and he is now also managing a substantial Bitcoin investment for me, with excellent results. I never worry about my investment because I know that it is in good hands, and he has been managing it for around three years already. My main objective with my investment is to increase my Bitcoin, regardless of the fiat price for it, and Nicholas has been doing exactly that over time."
"Thank you. This is actually really great! I would have thought in the current crypto winter that the losses would have been MUCH deeper!!"
"Thank you for the great returns! Hopefully there will be opportunities into the future again."
