I’m thrilled to announce the launch of @Lekker_Cap, a liquid hedge fund bringing a top-down macro approach to digital asset investing.
Lekker’s actively managed strategy capitalizes on the growth within the crypto ecosystem through liquid tokens, while also seeking unique and uncorrelated opportunities in macro and digital asset-related traditional securities.
As crypto and traditional finance converge, new opportunities for alpha generation arise, particularly in areas less explored by crypto-native investors like digital asset-related equities. Being an active boots-on-the-ground participant in the industry improves idea generation while maintaining a disciplined macro framework controls for the industry’s cyclicality and volatility. My journey from credit and fixed income capital markets on Wall Street into crypto has fueled my passion for the disruptive potential and innovation of this technology and serves as the foundation of Lekker’s investment process.
Over the past year I've enjoyed using Twitter to share insights, time stamp my track record, and become internet and IRL friends with many smart people. I will continue that as much as possible but my focus on managing the fund will likely reduce how much I’m on here going forward.
Exciting times ahead! Be lekker :)

I'm thrilled to announce that I've embarked on a new journey after departing from Galaxy! Reflecting on my time there, I am very proud of what I accomplished alongside the Galaxy team over the past three years.
Building upon my earlier experiences at Fidelity, I successfully established a thriving mining business at Galaxy, in the face of challenging market conditions. Now, I'm packaging all that valuable expertise and enthusiasm as I proudly introduce Fabiano Consulting, my inaugural endeavor.
🧵⛏️👀
I've discovered I really enjoy working with companies in their growth stages. I'm eager to utilize the knowledge and background I've gained and assist others in their growth endeavors.
Kicking off my consulting work I do have a few clients that I am really excited about working with. I can share two of them today.
I'm committed to furthering my collaboration with Compass Mining. Compass has successfully deployed more than 50,000 machines on behalf of their clients, granting access to Bitcoin mining for many who previously had no means to participate in this endeavor. Compass sheds light on the challenges and intricacies that come with mining Bitcoin and utilizing hosting services, offering a stark contrast to the often overly optimistic picture painted in public miner earnings reports.Mining, in reality, is a demanding, physically demanding, and intricate process.
I'm delighted to introduce our second client, Giga Energy. Giga Energy is an exceptional company based in Houston with its roots in the oil and gas mining industry. During the development of their mining sites, they encountered challenges related to suboptimal infrastructure design and complicated supply chain schedules. This prompted them to ask themselves, "Can we do this better on our own?" And indeed, they did just that.
In addition to their mining operations, Giga Energy has diversified into a comprehensive product line tailored for miners. This line includes a wide range of offerings, from PDUs to radiators, and from containers equipped with air cooling and hydro cooling systems to gensets. I am truly excited to collaborate with Giga Energy as they continue to scale their offerings.
While there are some other projects we're keeping under wraps for the time being, it's fair to say that I'm certainly staying occupied. ;)
The upcoming months leading to the next halving event mark a critical period in which mining strategies hold paramount significance. Our current landscape is vastly different from the previous halving, with one-third of the hash rate originating from public miners with distinct incentive structures and the introduction of new machines boasting significant efficiency improvements. As we witness a continuous rise in hash rate, it becomes imperative for companies to ask the pivotal question: "How can I position myself for success in the present market conditions and the post-halving future?"
This is the very question that gets me excited. I firmly believe that there's no shortage of companies wondering this same question. My goal is to help these miners in achieving success.
Given my background and experience from an institutional perspective, I find myself being in a unique position to also assist those seeking to enter the mining arena by helping them craft effective strategies. During the previous market cycle, we witnessed a plethora of newcomers entering the scene, I don’t think that will change this time around.
Consulting marks the initial step in my broader agenda. Stay tuned for more exciting developments to come...
