The Month To Date returns were amazing in August 2020

68% MTD return in USD (as of Aug 31 2020) for CARUS-AR, very happy to see those kind of returns again in crypto.

About this month (Sept, 2020)...

Unfortunately September 2020 is terrible so far.

On Sept 23, 2020 the YTD return of CARUS-AR has dropped to +168% (from +408% just 23 days ago!).

Like we warn on the homepage:
Investing in cryptocurrency is a high risk investment, never invest more than you are prepared to lose.
And wow this is no joke.

On Sept 21, 2020 CARUS-AR moved to 90% USD (Tether) and 10% Bitcoin

We did this to protect against losing further gains. See Tweet from @CARUS_AR and some more details about the motivations.

So what now?

We feel that with the crash / correction happening now in Crypto; chances are high that, short to mid term, the rend will remain bearish or stay flat.

For now CARUS-AR will remain mostly in USD (Tether) untill we see the trend turn bullish again or a more solid bottom forming. Prefering to risk short term gains should markets bounce up hard to losing all our long term results.

Will be looking at the global markets: Bitcoin, Ethereum, DeFi, Crypto, Gold and more very closely and hope to get back in during more green times!
