Moon Pursuit Capital Launches $100M Market-Neutral Crypto Fund: Kuvi Cheers On Lead Seed Investor

Kuvi extends congratulations to Utkarsh Ahuja --the Managing Partner of Moon Pursuit Capital and Kuvi's lead seed investor-- and the team at Moon Pursuit Capital for launching a $100 million market-neutral quantitative crypto fund.

This achievement builds on their demonstrated track record in risk-adjusted strategies and aligns with shared goals in advancing innovative financial tools.

While personally thrilled for their success, Kuvi looks forward to the possibility of Moon Pursuit utilizing our proprietary Agentic Finance OS (AFOS) in the future to refine and execute investment intents with enhanced automation.

Key details from the fund announcement include:

• Fund Strategy and Approach: Employs an always-on algorithmic engine for market-neutral positions, with additional tactics like bitcoin accumulation during cycle lows and short-term altcoin trades in momentum phases, targeting a high Sharpe ratio and reduced volatility.

• Performance History: Follows the success of their initial fund, which achieved over 52% year-to-date returns and nearly 170% since April 2024 on $30 million in AUM, even limiting losses to 3% during October's $40 billion market drawdown.

• Expansion Plans: Moon Pursuit is establishing offices in the U.S., Dubai, and Singapore, bolstering leadership in portfolio management, trading, and administration, while optimizing the fund's structure for multi-jurisdictional accessibility and tax efficiency.

• Market Positioning: Designed to appeal to institutional investors seeking systematic digital asset exposure, the fund focuses on generating consistent alpha regardless of broader market trends.

• Kuvi's Outlook: As pioneers in Agentic Finance, we're optimistic about collaborative opportunities ahead, where AFOS could potentially aid in intent-based strategy optimization within crypto ecosystems.

Utkarsh Ahuja highlighted the fund's global framework as key to meeting diverse investor demands, further emphasizing Moon Pursuit's strategic growth.
