Comparison of Dutch crypto trading fund performance

6 min

A crypto trading fund performance overview compares how investment funds generate returns, what investors pay, how often returns are paid, and what risks sit behind the numbers. For Dutch quantitative trading funds, the real comparison is not only “who has the highest return,” but “how is that return produced, accessed, and protected?”

Why is trading performance important

Trading performance is a critical metric because it shows whether a strategy can effectively convert market activity into investor returns. It gives investors a practical way to compare funds that may look similar on the surface.

The key figure is net performance after fees. A high gross return can become less attractive once management fees, performance fees, entry costs, exit costs, and liquidity limits are factored in.

Performance also matters because different funds take different types of risk. A crypto asset manager, an equity-based Web3 fund, a fixed-interest bond structure, and a delta-neutral trading fund can all report returns, but those returns come from very different engines. While this is important, investors care more about the total returns, and the fees they have to pay.

How to compare Dutch quantitative trading funds

Comparing Dutch investment or quantitative trading funds means looking at a larger set of data. Not just the yearly or weekly returns. Instead, comparing it means looking at different variables such as fees, security, risk, strategy, and finally, return numbers.

While fund accessibility varies depending on the strategy but also on an individual’s risk level, it’s important for investors to understand how returns are generated. These simple distinctions can build trust among investors as they are more comfortable allocating capital to a fund they understand how it works.

Next, it’s worth comparing how much of the return reaches you. This information is almost always less visible and requires deeper research to understand. That’s because management fees, profit share, high-water marks, entry fees, exit fees, and network costs all affect your final result.

How are performance and access quantified

Performance is usually quantified through net return, annualized return, monthly return, or fixed interest. The most useful figure for you is the investor-level return after all fund costs.

Access is quantified through minimum investment, lock-up periods, payout timing, and redemption rules. A weekly payout structure offers different liquidity than a fund where returns are reinvested and exits are monthly.

Risk is quantified less cleanly, but you can still compare it. Useful indicators include exposure to crypto price direction, use of leverage, counterparty risk, platform risk, software risk, and whether returns depend on trading profits or fixed contractual interest.

Cryptocurrency funds overview

AMDAX

Amdax offers managed crypto asset strategies rather than a traditional income fund. Its current fee schedule lists minimum investments from €25,000 to €100,000 depending on the strategy.

Amdax’s Core and Select strategies charge a €950 setup fee, 1.6% annual management fee, 12% performance fee above a high-water mark, 0.6% service fee on crypto assets, and 0.2% transaction fee. Some algorithmic strategies have 1% entry or exit fees, while Bullseye 30 has a 1% management fee and 10% performance fee.

The risk level is that AMDAX is trading cryptocurrencies which are volatile by nature. Amdax provides asset security through a full-reserve crypto custody which are added in cold storage and are not lent out.

Gini Capital

Gini Capital’s Digital Future Fund gives investors indirect exposure to blockchain, Web3, and AI through listed securities and derivatives. The company only reports performance data since 2022, which has generated +46.23% with an average monthly return of +1.19%.

Gini Capital requires a starting capital of €100,000, and a 1% entry cost, 1% exit cost, 1.8% annual management fee, estimated 0.8% annual fund-related costs, and an 18% performance fee above a high-water mark. Monthly entry and exit are possible, but the fund is aimed at investors who do not need income from the investment.

The main risk is high market and thematic exposure. The fund is classified as SRI 7 out of 7, meaning its risk category is the highest in the document. What’s worth highlighting is that users’ assets are held through Stichting Gini Trends as a legal owner. IQ EQ handles administration/NAV oversight; Lynx/Interactive Brokers execute and hold positions.

Yieldfund

Yieldfund is a quantitative trading company. Investors can get access to quantitative crypto trading through a bond investment structure. Yieldfund uses a proprietary quant trading algorithm that provides weekly payouts through a plan-based return system.

Yieldfund is among the companies with the lowest minimum investment of €10,000. Returns are paid out to investors every week through USDC and require no additional fees or management fees. The January 2026 key information document for Bonds Series A1 states participation from €10,000, bond terms of 1, 2, or 3 years, and monthly interest of 2%, 3%, or 4% depending on term, with weekly interest payments.

Yieldfund has generated a total profit of 148% in 2024 and 124.8% in 2025, with an average monthly profit of 10.4%. The main risk, however, is that returns on Yieldfund depend on crypto activity and volatility – which can affect returns or capital repayments.

Delta Quant

Delta Quant One focuses on delta-neutral digital asset strategies. Delta Quant averages annual returns of +10.23%, which is above market averages. Since February 2026, the company is +0.5% positive with a fund price of 130.71.

Delta Quant states that it targets a 20% annual net return after costs. Its fund page lists a 2% management fee, 20% performance fee, and a high-water mark; Ynvest reports no entry fee, 0.5% exit cost, a €100,000 minimum investment, monthly entry and exit, and reinvested returns rather than payouts.

The main risk is not simple crypto price direction, but platform, counterparty, currency, lending, and software risk. Positions are held across known cryptocurrency exchanges.

Is performance the only consideration when investing

Retail investors often focus on returns without considering other factors like the initial investment or associated fees. As an investor, you should ask how returns are paid out, when capital is accessible, and what fees are required for withdrawals. Additionally, it is important to understand how capital is managed by crypto trading funds and whether it is dependent on volatile markets.

Costs also matter because they compound against your returns. A fund with a 2% management fee and 20% performance fee needs strong results before you see a compelling net return. Additionally, early withdrawal fees hinder total capital value.

Risk management is crucial because all four options remain exposed to investment risk. Even strategies described as automated, quantitative, delta-neutral, or professionally managed can lose money or fail to meet expected returns.

Final words

When look at crypto trading fund performance, it’s important to understand all the elements that make for a successful investment. Even more important is the type of fund you are allocating capital to and how payouts and returns are paid.

Amdax offers managed crypto exposure, Gini Capital offers listed Web3 equity exposure, Yieldfund offers weekly payout-focused quantitative trading bonds, and Delta Quant offers a delta-neutral crypto liquidity strategy.

The right choice depends on your investment goals. If you are seeking weekly cash flow, you will compare these options differently from an investor seeking NAV growth, monthly liquidity, or direct crypto market exposure.
