Sygnum has introduced the ETH Alpha Fund SP, a market-neutral offering for professional investors aiming to deliver yearly returns of 8% to 10% in ETH, after deducting fees. The approach integrates native ETH staking alongside options premium capture, cross-exchange arbitrage, and strategies involving derivatives carry and funding. Profits and losses are settled in ETH rather than in U.S. dollars. The fund became accessible to investors on November 2, 2026, and is open to qualified and professional investors within approved jurisdictions, such as Switzerland. Markus Hammerli, who leads asset management at Sygnum and oversees the ETH Alpha Fund, noted that institutions with a long-term hold on ETH are beginning to evaluate their assets in terms of ETH rather than USD. They now measure success based on whether they have accumulated more ETH by year's end. He explained that the fund integrates in-kind income strategies alongside staking within a regulated framework. As of late September, Ethereum staking had hit 43.8 million ETH, accounting for nearly 36% of the total supply, while average annualized staking returns dropped to 2.63%. In a conversation with The Block in July, Thomas Brunner, Sygnum Bank’s head of custody and staking, remarked that almost no participants were unstaking their holdings, indicating strong confidence. He also mentioned that the entry queue reflects both infrastructure capacity and demand levels. https://dijitalsurmanset.com/en/sygnum-launches-eth-alpha-fund-targeting-8-to-10-annual-returns-in-eth-33909
