IRAs offer tax advantages and a range of investment options, including stocks, real estate, commodities and, increasingly, cryptocurrencies. But when it comes to crypto, there’s usually only one investment strategy available: to buy and hold.

IRA提供税收优势和一系列投资选择，包括股票，房地产，商品以及越来越多的加密货币。但是，当谈到加密货币时，通常只有一种投资策略：购买和持有。

It’s a strategy that might work well for assets like the S&P 500, which have long track records of steadily appreciating over longer time frames, but bitcoin is still an extremely volatile asset and other coins even more so.

这种策略可能适用于标准普尔500标准普尔（S＆P 500）这样的资产，该资产在较长的时间范围内稳步欣赏，但比特币仍然是一种非常波动的资产，而其他硬币甚至更是如此。

The idea behind BlockTrust IRA, then, is simple: to manage the crypto positions of its customers in order to take advantage of that volatility and maximize their returns.

因此，BlockTrust IRA背后的想法很简单：管理客户的加密位置，以利用这种波动率并最大化其回报。

“We're the only company that has an AI tool meshed with traders that put people automatically in cash [when need be]. Then we wait for the right signals, and we buy back in,” Jonathan Rose, the firm’s CEO, told CoinDesk in an interview.

该公司首席执行官乔纳森·罗斯（Jonathan Rose）在接受采访时对Coindesk表示：“我们是唯一具有与交易者相关联的AI工具的公司，该工具将人们自动现金（在需要时）自动提供。然后，我们等待正确的信号，然后回购。”

“Where people are scared of volatility and scared of risk, we actually want the volatility and the risk associated with that, because that's how we actually make our clients money,” Rose said. “We are right a lot more than we are wrong, and that's how we're able to beat the benchmark.”

罗斯说：“在人们害怕波动和害怕风险的地方，我们实际上希望与之相关的波动和风险，因为那是我们实际赚钱的方式。” “我们是对的，远远超出了我们的错，这就是我们能够击败基准的方式。”

BlockTrust’s secret sauce? Animus Technologies, a fund that provides intelligent asset management solutions for crypto. Animus has servers around the world and quantifies humongous amounts of data — to the point that a European government body has reached out to inquire what exactly they’re quantifying data for, according to Rose.

BlockTrust的秘密调味料？ Animus Technologies，该基金为加密提供智能资产管理解决方案。 Rose表示，Animus在世界各地都有服务器，并量化了巨大的数据 - 以至于欧洲政府机构已伸出援手询问他们到底是什么量化数据。

Animus typically only shares its signals with high net-worth individuals and fund clients, Rose said. In other words, crypto retail participants may now benefit, through their BlockTrust accounts, from the kind of trading mechanisms that previously were only available to quant funds.

罗斯说，Animus通常只与高净值个人和资金客户共享信号。换句话说，加密零售参与者现在可以通过其BlockTrust帐户从以前仅适用于量子资金的交易机制中受益。

The sophisticated strategies are currently only available for bitcoin

目前，复杂的策略仅适用于比特币

BlockTrust IRA went live officially in February. In March, the firm had accrued $10 million in assets, and Rose expects it to bring in roughly $100 million before the end of the year.

BlockTrust IRA于2月正式上线。 3月，该公司累计了1000万美元的资产，Rose预计它将在年底之前带来约1亿美元。

The company’s early success may also be due to the fact that it’s not just open to U.S. residents, but to people all around the world, as long as they can pass its Know-Your-Customer (KYC) checks. Americans do have the added advantage of being able to use their tax-deferred retirement savings to gain exposure.

该公司的早期成功也可能是由于它不仅向美国居民开放，而且对世界各地的人们开放，只要他们可以通过其知识客户（KYC）检查。美国人确实具有能够利用其延税的退休储蓄来获取曝光率的额外优势。

Crypto markets are ever changing, and trading strategies that function perfectly for a long time may suddenly become outdated due to shifts in the economic environment or crypto-intrinsic changes — potentially threatening to render Animus’ approach obsolete someday. But Rose isn’t concerned.

加密市场正在发生变化，由于经济环境的转变或加密性的变化，长期运作的交易策略可能会突然过时，这可能有可能使Animus的方法有一天过时。但是罗斯并不担心。

“When [the people at] Animus Technologies go to these hedge fund conferences and speak, they always come back with a big grin on their faces, because they're like, ‘We are so light-years ahead of anyone remotely doing what we're doing,’” Rose said. “It's going to take like four to six years for people to even kind of catch up to us.”

罗斯说：“当（Animus Technologies的人们都参加这些对冲基金会议并讲话时，他们总是在脸上露出大笑容，因为他们就像，'我们比任何人都在做我们正在做的事情要比任何人都在做的事情。' “人们甚至赶上我们要花费四到六年。”
