🤔 My Thoughts

As crypto does surprisingly well in these chaotic markets, the market is heating up with new offerings.

Coinbase just announced that they’re launching a Bitcoin Yield Fund which aims to deliver a 4% to 8% annualized net return, according to a press release on Monday.

Per Coindesk, the yield will initially be generated through basis trading, with lending and options strategies to be used in the future.

The so-called bitcoin basis trade involves capitalizing on the spread between futures and spot markets. It became popular at the tail end of 2024 as hedge funds notched a record high of $14.2 billion in BTC short positions, whilst simultaneously buying spot bitcoin ETF shares.

This brings back memories of many infamous crypto yield funds that blew up spectacularly and cost investors a lot of money. Crypto, for all its benefits, is not a stock with earnings and products etc. So any yield has to come from financial engineering, and that’s a risky prospect in the best of times.

Coinbase is a blue chip provider, and well-respected in the space, but even a modest (for Crypto) 8% yield is an awfully risky prospect…

We’re not crypto haters, and certainly see a role for it in a well-diversified portfolio. But if you want to target returns from good old-fashioned stocks that actually build and sell things, you MUST check out tomorrow’s live broadcast at 11 AM.
