DarkForest has formally ceased operations as of February 2026. The company is no longer conducting trading, advisory, or market-making activities.



DarkForest is a global algorithmic trading firm that generates consistent Bitcoin alpha through proprietary systematic strategies. Built on market-proven infrastructure and refined execution capabilities from years of live trading across crypto and traditional markets, DarkForest delivers institutional-grade performance in the world's most liquid digital asset.

The firm's foundational belief is simple: Bitcoin represents hard money and is a finite asset in high demand, making it likely that it will be worth more tomorrow than it is today. As such, the strategy is focused on growing the portfolio's Bitcoin holdings over time, rather than optimizing for USD-denominated returns.

This Bitcoin-denominated mindset shapes both the investment process and the firm’s long-term vision.

We have a data-driven edge - we rigorously curate high-quality Bitcoin market data across major pairs and venues, and feed it into our proprietary analytics framework.

By turning real-time insights into disciplined, risk-optimized signals, we consistently generate alpha where others see noise.
