Crypto Operators 3
Calibrated launch value from the rulebook. This basket carries no order panel today.
Why this basket exists
What the construction is trying to capture, who it is built for, and how it is meant to be sized inside a wider allocation.
Three small-cap Bitcoin operators with violent beta to BTC price. IREN runs renewable-powered mining at scale. BitMine accumulates an Ethereum treasury and operates mining infrastructure. MARA is the largest publicly-traded BTC miner. All three trade more aggressively than spot Bitcoin in both directions, which is the point. Position size accordingly.

3 holdings, drawn to scale
Each tile's area is its weight in the basket, so the picture and the table below it are the same data read two ways.

Why each name earned its seat
Research notes per constituent: the case for the asset, the regime that suits it, and the risk the seat carries.

What the numbers say
Simulated on historical constituent prices. A Sharpe is only published once the measured window clears 90 days, and drawdowns keep their sign.
Every figure above is simulated on historical constituent prices for a basket that has not traded. It describes how the rules would have behaved, not how they will behave. OCOPS3 is part of a public preview.
Max expected loss over the horizon · 95% confidence · historical distribution. There is a 5% chance the actual loss is larger.
| Window | Return | Sharpe | vs BTC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full window | +309.3% | 2.29 | +2.79 |
| 1 year | +15.2% | 0.22 | +1.01 |
| 6 months | +32.3% | 1.20 | −0.32 |
| 3 months | −8.6% | −0.46 | −1.65 |
| 1 month | +37.1% | Not graded | · |
Returns are simulated over each window. A Sharpe is published only once that window clears 90 days, so the shorter rows read Not graded and carry no comparison with bitcoin. Short windows flatter and punish at random; read the full window first and treat the rest as texture.
What could go wrong
Priced off this basket's own weights rather than off a generic disclaimer, so every figure below can be checked against the table above.
Highly volatile. Expect 50% or deeper drawdowns. Position size proportional to conviction; this is a tactical sleeve, not a buy-and-hold position.
- Single-name concentrationHigh
IRENon carries 40% of the basket. A drawdown in this single name materially moves NAV.
- Short price historyHigh
IRENon, BMNRon, MARAon have under a year of usable history. Backtest metrics carry wider error bars.
- Routing dependenceMedium
Routes through Dinari (stocks) and Backed Finance (ETFs). Settles on the EVM rail. KYC at the OLTA layer, not available in the US today.
- Elevated volatilityMedium
Backtest annualised vol 94%. See the backtest panel above for the full risk numbers.
- Deep historical drawdownMedium
Max drawdown reached −60% in the backtest window. Size accordingly.

The mechanical rows hold every other holding still, which is the optimistic case. This basket measured 0.33 correlation to bitcoin over its window, which is loose enough that the holdings can move apart. Even so, a shock rarely lands on one name alone. Read the figures as a floor on the damage, never a ceiling.
The research behind the construction
Tokenized equity execution is not open yet
Single stocks route through Dinari and ETF coverage through Backed Finance, settling on the EVM rail once identity checks clear. The execution surface for this family arrives with the next release. Composition, weights and the measured record above are current.
