Cryptokie vs. the Market

Historical paper-performance results are temporarily under methodology review. Cryptokie identified execution-cost assumptions that materially affected the previously displayed simulated results. Historical records are being preserved and independently reconciled rather than silently rewritten.

What Cryptokie Is Seeing

Today's Research Highlight

Expanded Coin Universe

Whether broadening the eligible asset universe improves risk-adjusted model results after realistic costs.

6340 expanded-universe research evaluations recorded

Evidence status: Collecting Evidence / Insufficient Sample

Why it matters: The production model currently trades a narrower eligible universe than Cryptokie's research system observes.

What remains unresolved: Whether a broader universe's apparent edge survives real transaction costs and holds across multiple market regimes.

No conclusion yet -- the study is still collecting evidence.

Research Reality Check

Cryptokie's paper accounting has been independently reconciled. We are now prospectively measuring real-world spread, fee, liquidity, and latency effects before making any claims about customer execution.

Educational Insight — Drawdown

A drawdown is the drop from a peak to a subsequent trough, expressed as a percentage. It matters more than most single-day returns because recovering from a deep drawdown requires a disproportionately larger gain: a 50% loss needs a 100% gain just to get back to even. Judging any strategy — automated or manual — by its worst drawdown, and how long recovery took, is often more informative than its best month. Simulated results in particular should always be read alongside their maximum drawdown, never in isolation.

Cryptokie provides market research, simulated model-portfolio analytics, and educational information. It does not provide personalized investment advice. Cryptocurrency markets are volatile, and losses can be substantial. Historical and simulated results do not guarantee future performance.

Performance figures may reflect simulated model-portfolio activity and may not represent executable customer results. Fees, slippage, liquidity, latency, and market impact may differ in live trading.
