Monarq Asset Management today announced the launch of its “WBTC Market Neutral Yield” on Railnet, bringing institutional portfolio construction and risk management frameworks to an onchain deployment and distribution layer.
Institutional asset managers are increasingly leveraging onchain infrastructure to distribute structured investment strategies with greater transparency, programmable controls, and global accessibility.
Bitcoin is a core asset for many allocators, including family offices, crypto-native funds, corporate treasuries, and high-net-worth investors. Yet generating yield on BTC has historically involved meaningful tradeoffs:
Institutional-style BTC yield strategies featuring transparent reporting, defined risk budgets, and multi-venue execution have largely remained inaccessible through onchain infrastructure.
The Monarq BTC Market Neutral Yield Strategy on Railnet is designed to address this gap.
Institutional Approach to Onchain Yield
Monarq Asset Management is a multi-strategy digital asset investment firm focused on risk-managed strategies across market regimes.
The team includes former executives from firms such as LedgerPrime, Tower Research, and BlockTower Capital, with deep experience in quantitative trading, derivatives, risk management, and digital market structure.
As a FalconX majority-owned asset manager, Monarq is closely connected to the institutional trading ecosystem surrounding FalconX, a leading digital asset prime broker serving hedge funds, asset managers, and proprietary trading firms.
The Monarq BTC Yield Strategy is a structured allocation framework designed to generate BTC-denominated yield while maintaining disciplined risk controls.
The strategy may allocate across multiple yield sources depending on market conditions and portfolio risk limits:
The objective is to deliver risk-managed yield without relying on directional BTC exposure as the primary return driver.
“Our mission at Monarq is to deliver risk-managed returns through deep expertise in quantitative trading. By launching this BTC Yield Strategy on Railnet, we are bringing institutional risk frameworks and portfolio construction to investors wherever their capital resides, whether in custody or onchain.”
– Shiliang Tang, Managing Partner, Monarq Asset Management
Why Monarq Chose Railnet
Monarq selected Railnet as its initial onchain deployment and distribution layer due to its support for institutional-grade infrastructure, including:
Railnet is developed by Kiln, a digital asset infrastructure provider supporting institutional staking and yield products globally.
Note: Digital asset investments involve substantial risk, including the possible loss of principal. Past performance is not indicative of future results and target returns are not guaranteed.
Allocators can access the strategy through the Kiln Dashboard, while platforms can integrate the strategy through Kiln OmniVault.
