How does the Encrypted Energy rebalance algorithm work?
Borrowing demand is the single factor that most affects an ETF's lending yield. Our automatic scoring system consumes data from each Bitcoin ETF and monitors for high demand-low supply imbalances, among other factors — updated hourly throughout the trading session.
Examples of data that are considered before determining to rebalance:
Rebalance Considerations
Borrowing demand
The aggregate number of shares traders want to obtain for purposes such as short sales.
Average supply
The aggregate number of shares available to be borrowed over various timespans.
Expense ratio
A percentage fee that the ETF sponsors charge in exchange for providing their services.
Trading volume
The number of shares of each ETF that are traded during a given time period.
Bid-Ask spread
The difference between the lowest ask price and the highest bid price.
Time-based trends
Futures expiration dates, time of the week, time of day, one-time events, holidays, etc.
But wait, there's more...
In-kind interest payments and bi-directional market exposure..
Interest accrued from your Note is paid out using Bitcoin-native Lightning payments.
Prepare for any market outcome and hedge your Bitcoin exposure by loaning collateral to borrowers of inverse-Bitcoin ETFs.
Don't take our word for it.
Our customers range from institutional investors to wealthy individuals. In every case, we've helped them to increase their yield with just a few clicks.
"Encrypted Energy helped us realize that the Bitcoin ETFs individually are never one-size-fits-all; borrowing demand for each ETF is different. With their help, our lending yield increased 30% virtually overnight."
