"Crypto Native Capital is transitioning to a strict 'Bitcoin-only' strategy, discarding altcoins entirely due to terrible historical odds, and is currently holding 1/3 of its assets in T-bills to ride out an early-stage crypto winter."
Executive Summary
In Q4 2025, Crypto Native Capital declined by 20.1%, outperforming Bitcoin (-23.5%) and the Bloomberg Galaxy Crypto Index (-30.4%) thanks to defensive actions taken in Q3 that left the fund two-thirds in Bitcoin and one-third in cash. The manager announces a major strategic shift: going forward, the fund will hold only Bitcoin and cash, completely eliminating altcoin exposure. This decision is driven by rigorous historical analysis showing that out of 1,400 altcoins, only 20 beat Bitcoin over the 2013-2022 period, with the median token going to zero. Believing the market has entered a typical year-long crypto winter, the fund has parked its cash entirely in T-bills (exiting a pilot in Hyperliquid's HLP vault that did not perform as expected) and plans to wait patiently for market capitulation before deploying capital to accumulate more Bitcoin.
