What Makes Portal’s Approach to Market Volatility Unique and Effective?

Highlights

• Bitcoin’s volatility continues to be both a major risk and potential area of interest.
• Portal Asset Management views this Bitcoin’s volatility as a strategic asset to generate yield, not just as a risk.
• Portal offers two crypto investment options: the Portal Digital Fund and the Radiance Multi-Strategy Fund.
• Portal’s Bitcoin Extraction Strategy (BESt) transforms Bitcoin price swings into a noteworthy prospect

The cryptocurrency landscape is rapidly evolving, shaped increasingly by political and regulatory developments. Bitcoin, one of the most widely discussed cryptocurrencies, continues to attract investor interest due to its performance in recent times. However, its well-known volatility presents both opportunities and risks. Traditionally, the default strategy for most investors has been simple “HODLing”, buying Bitcoin and holding it long-term in hopes of appreciation.  

Turning Volatility Into an Asset

At Portal Asset Management, volatility is not seen as a risk to be merely tolerated but as a valuable asset to be actively managed. As a key player in the digital assets space, Portal offers two distinct investment pathways for entering the digital assets market: the Portal Digital Fund and the Radiance Multi-Strategy Fund.

Through its Bitcoin Extraction Strategy (BESt), Portal turns Bitcoin’s price volatility into potential yields, steadily increasing Bitcoin holdings and compounding value over time.

From Passive Holding to Active Compounding

For years, profiting from Bitcoin meant buying and holding, banking on long-term price growth. While effective during bull markets, this approach yields no Bitcoin income in sideways or down markets.

Portal’s BESt strategy represents a smarter evolution: active compounding of Bitcoin holdings. By reinvesting incremental gains generated from market volatility, the strategy increases the actual number of Bitcoins an investor owns, rather than just relying on price appreciation.

Monetising Bitcoin Volatility

Bitcoin’s volatility can be harnessed through derivatives like options in a beneficial way. Portal’s “volatility harvesting” strategy captures premiums generated from Bitcoin’s price swings, allowing the fund to steadily accumulate more BTC. Importantly, this approach keeps continuous exposure to Bitcoin, using market fluctuations as opportunities and trying to counterbalance the risks.

BESt: Radiance Fund’s Bitcoin Compounding in Action

The Bitcoin Extraction Strategy (BESt), featured within the Radiance Multi-Strategy Fund, exemplifies active Bitcoin compounding. BESt is a derivatives premium strategy that generates Bitcoin income by capitalising on BTC price fluctuations through specialised options trading.

Since fully adopting BESt in early 2025, the Radiance Fund has steadily increased its Bitcoin holdings, even during volatile periods..

Developed and refined over several years by veteran options trader Phil McGregor, BESt combines market expertise with rigorous testing to transform volatility into opportunities.

Portal’s BESt strategy leverages Bitcoin’s market movements while applying rigorous, institutional-grade risk management to steadily build Bitcoin holdings.

Through disciplined position sizing, diversified option structures, and experienced oversight, it captures yield from market volatility while maintaining full upside exposure.  

In essence, Bitcoin’s volatility doesn’t have to be a liability; it can be used productively. Portal Asset Management’s Bitcoin Extraction Strategy shows how a structured, risk-managed approach canmitigate the risk , even in non-trending markets. It highlights how volatility can be utilised rather than simply endured.
