The world is moving at an unprecedented pace toward digital assets. Our work is to allocate thoughtfully, manage risk uncompromisingly, and compound patiently when others are reacting.
Raj Kumar Patel Founder & CEO · Bitfinco

Bitfinco is a hedge fund operating across digital assets, US equities, derivatives, prediction markets and global liquid markets, through independent desks — systematic, discretionary, yield and special situations — engineered for cycles, not for headlines or noise.

Global markets at work

Our firm.

Conceived by Raj Kumar Patel in 2014 and established in 2018, Bitfinco was built deliberately for one conviction: that the convergence of digital assets and traditional markets is a defining trading opportunity of this generation.

We are research-driven, technology-native, and built on intellectual honesty.

Headquartered in Brisbane, with teams in India, Dubai and New York — research operating around the clock. Private by design, measured by rigour, not attention.

Markets.

We participate across the markets where digital assets and traditional finance converge. Our desks size exposure where Bitfinco's edge holds, whether through directional positioning, market making, basis trades or relative-value, depending on the regime.

Research.

Research is where every Bitfinco trade begins. Our analysts translate raw market, protocol and macro data into the conviction-weighted theses that every desk operates against.

Engineering.

Powered by in-house engineering, our trading systems handle the full path from signal to settled position, enabling us to act on opportunity within market events as they unfold rather than after.

Models.

We believe deep learning is the future of quantitative trading. Our researchers build machine-learning models within an in-house AI harness, capturing short-horizon dynamics across the markets we trade with execution-aware backtesting against production data.

Strategy.

Risk is allocated across four independent desks, each with its own horizon and conviction band: systematic, discretionary, yield and special situations. We hold positions through cycles when shorter-horizon participants react to headlines.

At Bitfinco we participate across time horizons, markets, and asset classes.

Our Philosophy.

Our internal code of ethics far exceeds the expectations of the regulatory environment in which we operate. We are conscientious market participants advocating for fair and transparent markets for everyone. This philosophy influences every aspect of our research and the way we operate.
