High Yield Treasury Management

A low volatility fund as a high yield alternative to traditional money market products.

Our institutional-grade flagship strategy combines market neutral portfolio construction with proprietary execution and risk control systems designed to enforce discipline, reduce latency, and eliminate human error. We operate in the parts of the digital asset markets where inefficiency, arbitrage opportunity, and structural pricing gaps create consistent yield without reliance on macro cycles.

Our systems continuously model liquidity, spreads, and execution conditions to identify emerging inefficiencies before they fully materialize.

Our goal is simple: preserve capital, minimize volatility, and compound quietly. Every position is hedged and continuously monitored with automated risk controls.

About Praxos

Praxos is built on quantitative research, disciplined risk management, and deep operational security. Our team brings decades of experience across crypto markets, structured products, data science, AI, and blockchain infrastructure. We focus on delivering consistent gains, regardless of market conditions, and mitigating risk through operational resilience.

We deploy proprietary execution and monitoring systems to manage positions, control risk, and capture structural inefficiencies, with human oversight embedded at every critical decision point. Automation enforces consistency, while accountability remains fully human. We deliberately restrict our fund to the most liquid assets, venues, and protocols, where inefficiency is structural and measurable. We do not pursue long-tail exchanges, experimental chains, or fragmented liquidity environments, and we avoid unnecessary operational sprawl. The result is a stable, low-volatility approach designed for reliable treasury management rather than speculative exposure.

Gradient Transition

Team

Praxos is founded and run by quantitative researchers, security engineers, and crypto-market operators with experience building and operating risk-critical systems across global financial institutions and asset markets. Our investment team is made up of expert data scientists that have worked with and advised leading financial institutions on risk management, execution optimization, and system reliability, including the application of machine learning and automation to high-stakes trading and treasury environments.

Collectively, we bring decades of experience spanning quantitative trading, blockchain infrastructure, financial risk systems, and large-scale production software engineering. This background informs Praxos' approach to conservative system design, selective market participation, and automation built to reduce risk.
