The design principle: the standing one-half short-future hedge trades a share of the upside in strong rallies for a cushion in drawdowns — downside-protection asymmetry, not full upside capture. In Q2 2026, Bitcoin fell 14.2% while the fund gave up 7.95% net and grew its Bitcoin holdings 7.9%.

Important information. Returns are net of fees and time-weighted (reported quarterly net ROI, chain-linked, flow-neutral) unless labeled gross. Combined-record figures span CMFDH I and CMFDH II from July 1, 2019 and derive from the firm’s combined history workbook; CMFDH II figures derive from the fund’s quarterly reports from January 1, 2023. All figures derive from Nicholas Levenstein & Company’s quarterly accounting; an independent audit is underway, and figures are not yet independently audited. Bitcoin and S&P 500 comparisons are provided for context only and reflect price performance over the identical window. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Digital-asset strategies involve substantial risk, including possible loss of capital; the fund’s partial hedge reduces, but does not eliminate, exposure to Bitcoin drawdowns, and it costs return in strong rallies.
