ABOUT THE ROLE
RootstockLabs is seeking a visionary Fund Manager to architect, launch, and scale an institutional-grade, BTC-denominated investment fund from the ground up. This fund will enable institutional and private Bitcoin holders to unlock yield and manage credit risk through a mixed portfolio of strategies.
By bridging traditional institutional demand and Bitcoin-native yield generation, the fund serves as a trusted, regulated vehicle for deploying sophisticated capital.
As a founding leader, you will own the fund's strategy, portfolio construction, risk management framework, investor relations, and regulatory governance. This is a high-impact, greenfield opportunity to define a flagship financial product in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
The mandate
Objective: Deliver risk-adjusted returns measured in BTC, with principal preservation in BTC terms as the first priority.
Vehicle: Cayman Islands SPC, CIMA-registered, with independent directors and a third-party administrator, auditor and custodian.
Investors: L1 foundations and treasuries, ecosystem funds and selected institutional allocators seeking BTC exposure with yield.
Strategies: BTC-collateralised lending, market-neutral and basis strategies, liquidity provision, and yield on Rootstock and other Bitcoin-aligned venues, within board-approved limits. Directional exposure and unhedged leverage are out of scope unless the board expressly approves them.
Target size: $500 million committed capital within 12 months of launch.
