Quantitative intelligence
for crypto markets.

Hedonist Capital builds proprietary tools at the intersection of market microstructure, derivatives, and on-chain forensics. Two productised lines — Hedonist Intel (algorithmic trading · prediction-market scanner · strategic fund) and Onyx Protocol (forensic recovery of frozen exchange capital) — plus bespoke advisory for principal capital from $100K.

Operating Thesis

"Crypto markets are inefficient at the edges where institutions can't trade, and at the corners where regulation has not yet drawn lines. Both edges and corners are profitable — for whoever shows up with the right tools."

intelligence

Algorithmic trading · prediction-market AI · strategic fund

A multi-product intelligence stack covering Binance USDT-M Futures and prediction markets. Four non-overlapping algorithmic strategies (pre-pump volatility compression, event-driven monitoring fades, post-listing reversion, news-fade), an AI scanner that surfaces mispriced bets on Polymarket, and an application-only strategic fund deploying capital across the same sleeves. Subscribers receive signals through Telegram; optional Binance API connection auto-executes on the subscriber's own account.

ONYX PROTOCOL · STRATEGIC PARTNER

Forensic asset
recovery

Frozen capital · AML compliance · success-fee model

A specialised division for capital trapped on Tier-1 exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX) under AML flags, "risk control" holds, or P2P disputes. Onyx delivers forensic blockchain audits, Source-of-Wealth engineering, and direct compliance liaison — the institutional framework that converts a frozen account into a recovered one.

Pay only when capital is recovered — success-fee aligned with the client
Forensic blockchain analysis, AML reports, regulatory liaison
Average case resolution: 14–60 days · Tier-1 venues, multi-jurisdiction

Success-feeno recovery, no charge

Private consulting · since 2015

In a market driven by noise, clarity is the most expensive asset.

Hedonist Advisory works with business owners, family offices, and active traders managing principal capital from $100K to $10M+. We act as your external Chief Investment Officer — not pushing trades, but constructing the framework around which your capital is deployed.

Engagement begins with a portfolio audit, moves through strategic reallocation, and closes with institutional-grade execution. The goal is the same in every mandate: preserve optionality, bound downside, compound through cycles.

PREMIER MANDATE

THE ALPHA PROTOCOL · Three-Phase Engagement

PHASE I

Portfolio Deconstruction

Full audit of current exposure across CEX custody, on-chain positions, and traditional vehicles. Hidden risks surfaced: counterparty, jurisdictional, leverage-adjacent, custody fragility. Produces a single document — what you actually own and where it can break.
PHASE II

Strategic Reallocation

Asymmetric position sizing built around the audit findings. High-yield on-chain exposure balanced against stable RWA anchors. Hedge construction through derivatives where appropriate. Goal: maximise upside per unit of survival risk, not per unit of volatility.
PHASE III

Institutional Execution

Direct OTC desk access, private-round allocations (Seed/Strategic), tax-neutral structuring through Limassol, Dubai, or Swiss vehicles depending on residency. Execution that retail rails cannot match — at retail-comparable cost.

A small team. Long horizons. Real money on the same trades we sell.

SINCE 2015

Eleven years on the same problem

Hedonist Capital was founded the cycle before the 2017 ICO mania, and has operated through every market regime since. Our research stack is built on what survived four full cycles — not what trended on Twitter last week.

SKIN IN THE GAME

We trade the same signals subscribers see

Every algorithm shipped to subscribers also runs the firm's principal capital. If a strategy fails, we lose first — that constraint shapes every line of code.

ANONYMOUS BY DESIGN

No KYC. No custody. No tracking.

Subscribers pay in stablecoin via Telegram. We never hold client funds — execution happens on the subscriber's own Binance account through restricted API keys. Privacy is a feature, not an afterthought.

Four principles that decide what ships and what doesn't.

01 /

Edge before optics

A strategy reaches subscribers only after surviving path-dependent replay on rolling 90-day windows with realistic slippage, fees, and funding. Marketing follows research, not the other way around.
02 /

Honest numbers or no numbers

Backtest figures published on our product pages are computed from the same engine that runs in production. Survivorship bias, look-ahead leaks, and curve fits are flagged or removed. If the data doesn't support the claim, we don't make the claim.
03 /

Self-custody, always

Hedonist Capital does not hold client funds for any product. Subscribers run the engine on their own exchange accounts through restricted API keys with withdrawals disabled. Loss of trust through custody loss is the one bug we refuse to ship.
04 /

Boring is allowed

Many edges decay. Some don't. We will retire a product the moment its edge collapses below transaction cost — and we will keep boring, slow, durable strategies running for years if they keep paying. Capital allocation, not novelty, is the goal.
