Strategies

At Elemental, we combine multiple investment strategies to generate competitive yields while minimizing risk. By spreading our investments across different approaches, we reduce volatility and avoid concentrating too heavily in any single area. This diversification also helps us adapt to market seasonality. For example, funding rates may be highly rewarding to farm during a bull market, yet they can become flat or even negative in a bear market. By not relying on just one strategy, we smooth out returns over time enabling our signature fixed-yields for depositors.

We recognize that the Web3 landscape constantly shifts, so we must remain nimble and open to new opportunities. At the same time, we take care not to chase every trend. Instead, we find a careful balance between exploring emerging possibilities and sticking to those we know and trust. Achieving this balance demands deep industry knowledge, first-hand experience, well-established direct connections with protocol teams, and a wealth of data. Together, these elements guide us as we allocate resources and decide when to adjust or expand our strategies. Having served as stewards since 2022, we have learned valuable lessons and refined our approach, evolving into a more robust operation that continues to grow stronger over time.

In the following pages, you will find a non-exhaustive overview of the strategies we employ. We continuously oscillate among them as market conditions shift, always with the goal of delivering the best possible risk-reward setup. Here at Elemental, our true advantage lies in how we evaluate different strategies’ risks, how we adjust allocations among them, how we go about executing the strategies, and how we continuously develop and test new ideas. While we cannot disclose every detail of our decision-making process, we remain transparent at a high level and are happy to explain our rationale.

For new depositors, it’s natural to feel some uncertainty. You might worry about the risks involved or how we respond to fast-moving conditions. Please know that we apply a disciplined approach to evaluating each opportunity, thoroughly vetting protocols and strategies before putting capital at risk. Every allocation choice is grounded in data-driven analysis rather than impulse. Over time, we trust you’ll gain confidence in our methodologies as you see how we navigate shifts in the market.

Finally, since we operate our fund exclusively on Solana, all our transactions occur on-chain, ensuring transparent execution that anyone can verify. This on-chain nature not only reinforces trust but also enables anyone to see our processes in action. We believe this level of openness underscores our commitment to accountability, prudent strategy design, and long-term success.
