About Unsigned Research

Unsigned Research is a proprietary trading firm specialising in medium frequency, quant-based systematic strategies within the digital asset space.

Our team combines quantitative scientists, engineers, and risk professionals whose credentials range from pioneering deep-tech innovations with proven commercial applications to advanced doctoral research in applied mathematics at the world's leading universities. This multidisciplinary expertise anchors our strategies firmly in both academic rigour and practical trading experience.

We adopt a focused research approach, re-examining proven techniques from traditional finance through a logical, bottom-up perspective before encoding them into robust algorithms. The result is a vertically integrated, full-stack asset management platform designed specifically for digital asset markets and continuously refined through more than five years of live, battle-tested trading.

Being a crypto-native firm, we hold Bitcoin on our balance sheet. This commitment, coupled with conservative risk parameters, allows us to deliver competitive returns and ensures the long-term sustainability of our business.

UR is not regulated and will never solicit capital from external investors, whether institutional or retail.

Ethos

We embrace a meritocratic culture, evaluating ideas based on correctness rather than seniority, and maintain a deliberately flat organisational structure. Integrity guides everything we do, and upholding the highest ethical standards is non-negotiable.

Our strategic decisions reflect a long-term perspective, which means we prioritise sustainable returns over immediate gains.

We deeply believe in the societal benefits of decentralised and distributed networks, and actively contribute to their development.

Our incentive structures also reflect these core values, as each team member is vested in the firm and rewarded directly according to their measurable contributions to our market success.
