- Description
- Cash-and-carry when annualized basis clears 8%. Inventory is hedged; residual is funding.
- Harvest positive funding when basis is rich; cut inventory overnight around event risk.
- Process
- Enter when basis rich, exit when it compresses under 4% or before large unlocks.
- Custody
- Capital enters a MAIN illustration account, subscription moves to STRATEGY, exits return to MAIN then redeem. Segregation is illustrative.

September read: BTC basis compressed from 11% to 7.4% annualised over the past two weeks while funding stayed modestly positive. We are not reading that as risk-off; it is crowding unwinding after the August rally. Inventory sits at 82% of capacity and the remaining 18% stays in cash-like until basis clears 8% again. No change to the 7-day lockup.
Agree on the crowding read. Perp OI is down 14% from the August high and funding never went negative. That is a squeeze ending, not a regime change.
Exactly the tape we are looking at. If OI keeps falling and basis holds 7%, we redeploy the cash-like sleeve on Thursday.

Rotated 30% of my cash-like sleeve here after the August letter. The capacity cap is the tell: managers who cap are managers who measure.
Same move, same reason. The $USD Cash-like$ sleeve is where the rest sits.

Mira, with basis at 7.4% and the perf fee at 10%, what does net carry look like for a depositor who came in this week? Trying to decide between this and $Stablecoin Basis Book$.
Gross carry at today's basis is about 7.4% annualised on the hedged notional. After 0.8% management and 10% on profits, model roughly 5.8% net if basis stays here. If it compresses under 4% we exit and you sit in cash-like at about 4.2%: that is the floor, not a promise. The stablecoin book is lower-vol and lower-carry; different job.
That is the clearest answer I have had from a manager. Depositing $10k after the lockup window.

Rehedged 12% of inventory after the Friday funding print. Residual delta is back inside ±0.3% of NAV.

Been in since April. The book did exactly what the factsheet said in the July squeeze: flat, hedged, boring. Boring is the product.
Same. My only complaint is the 7-day lockup when I want to rotate into $Orbit Liquidity Provider (OLP)$.
Lockup stays at 7 days. It is what lets us not sell into a squeeze on your behalf.

August letter: +2.9% for the month, 100% of days hedged, zero overnight event exposure through Jackson Hole. Capacity note: we will cap the vault at $22M. Above that our fills degrade and your carry goes to the venue, not to you.
Cap noted. We will size the family allocation before it fills rather than queue behind it.
Trading involves risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Vault NAV can rise or fall.
Runs Harbor Key's basis and funding books. Previously rates vol at a HK broker-dealer.
