Q. What is Shark?
Shark is an automated Bitcoin investment strategy that uses options to generate returns by analyzing volatility patterns. It compares Implied Volatility (IV)—the market’s forecast of future price moves—with Historical Volatility (HV)—how much Bitcoin has actually moved. Based on this, Shark takes positions designed to profit in both calm and volatile conditions.
Q. How does the Shark strategy work?
Each day, Shark compares IV and HV to determine whether options are overpriced or underpriced. Based on this, it executes trades accordingly:
| Conditions | Action | Position | Expected Return |
|---|---|---|---|
| Implied Volatility (IV) > Historical Volatility (HV) | Sell Options | Short Straddle or Strangle | Profit if volatility remains low |
| Implied Volatility (IV) < Historical Volatility (HV) | Buy Options | Long Straddle or Strangle | Profit if volatility rises sharply |
Think of it this way:
If the forecast calls for a storm (high IV), but the weather stays calm (low HV), umbrellas get overpriced—just like options. That’s when Shark sells. If the storm actually hits, Shark buys. It’s like trading umbrellas based on how accurate the forecast was.
Q. What makes Shark different from other funds?
Each day, Shark compares Implied Volatility (IV) and Historical Volatility (HV) to decide if options are mispriced—and acts automatically.
Here’s how it stacks up:
| Feature | Shark | Other Products |
|---|---|---|
| Strategy Transparency | Clear IV/HV logic | Often unclear |
| Profit Currency | Crypto (BTC) | Mostly fiat (USD) |
| Automation | 100% automated | Manual or limited logic |
| Liquidity | 1-3 business days | 1-12 month lockups |
- Trading Instrument: Deribit option
A option statistical arbitrage strategy that takes advantage of disparities between implied volatility and statistical volatility. This strategy opportunistically buys synthetic positions when implied volatility is statistically lower and sells them when it's higher. This strategy generates profits by estimating the theoretical prices of various synthetic positions and betting that the gap between these theoretical prices and market prices will narrow. However, it's important to note that this strategy may result in losses if the gap between theoretical and market prices unexpectedly widens or if the associated Greeks are unfavorable.
- Option Greeks Risk: Options trading carries inherent risks under the name of Greeks, including the possibility of price fluctuations and the potential loss of the option premium
- Opportunity Risk: This strategy exclusively enters positions when it identifies statistical arbitrage opportunities. In the absence of such opportunities, a significant portion of available assets remains idle, awaiting a chance to be utilized.
- Exchange Risk: The strategy is active on the exchange, making it susceptible to losses in the event of a security breach or insolvency of the exchange.
- Crypto Volatility Risk: Due to the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies, may be exposed to significant losses in the event of large price fluctuations.
- Programmatic Error Risk: Despite rigorous vetting, extensive testing, and continuous monitoring of automated trading programs, errors within the program can lead to financial losses.

What is High-Water Mark Performance fee?
A high water mark performance fee is a compensation structure used in investment funds, such as hedge funds. It establishes a benchmark representing the fund's highest value since inception or the last fee was charged. Managers can only collect performance fees when they generate returns that surpass this benchmark, aligning their interests with those of investors and encouraging responsible investment management.
Is the return of the product based on the number of coins or on the dollar value?
SmashFi calculates returns based on the quantity of specific coins, not their dollar value. This coin-based returns approach means that the performance of each product is measured by the change in the number of coins held, rather than their monetary value.
