I’ve been using stoic for almost three months with great returns! Not being able to be on top of the markets 24/7 stoic does that for me with great results much better than me being on top of it! Would recommend it to anyone!
Trade the Crypto Index automatically on Coinbase
Automate your Coinbase portfolio with an AI-powered crypto trading bot. Stoic manages your investments using a professionally designed crypto index strategy while your funds remain securely in your Coinbase account.
Connect CoinbaseWhy automate
A crypto trading bot handles the day-to-day work of managing a crypto portfolio for you — disciplined, automated execution around the clock, without watching charts or trying to time the market.
Automation
Your entire Coinbase portfolio is managed for you. The bot places every trade and sizes every position automatically — automated crypto investing with no manual orders.
Hands-off
Stop refreshing charts and second-guessing entries. Fully automated crypto trading runs 24/7, so you never have to monitor the market yourself.
Rebalancing
As prices move, the bot rebalances your crypto portfolio on schedule to keep allocations on target — portfolio rebalancing without spreadsheets or guesswork.
Diversification
Instead of betting on a single coin, your capital is spread across dozens of crypto assets — built-in diversification for steadier, more balanced risk.
How the index works
Stoic AI Crypto Index is a long-only smart-beta strategy that runs dozens of sub-strategies at once across a diversified basket of liquid crypto assets — no shorting, no leverage, fully automated.
Read more about the strategyTrack record
A long-only smart-beta strategy rebalanced daily across dozens of liquid crypto assets. Figures below are based on the strategy's monthly return history since inception.
Performance figures are derived from the Stoic AI Crypto Index's monthly return history since inception and may combine simulated/backtested and live trading periods. Backtested results are hypothetical and do not represent actual trades; they are subject to limitations including hindsight bias. All figures start from a hypothetical $10,000 initial investment with full reinvestment of returns and do not account for individual tax obligations, exchange commissions, or slippage. This is a long-only strategy with no shorting or leverage, but materially higher volatility and drawdown risk than market-neutral strategies. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investing in cryptocurrency involves significant risk, including possible loss of principal. Stoic AI operates as an automated trading manager and does not provide personalised investment advice.
What to expect
The Stoic AI Crypto Index is long-only, so it follows the broad crypto market — up and down. Here is what that means in each regime, so you know what you are signing up for.
Bull market
When crypto trends up, the index rides it: momentum tilts shift weight toward the strongest assets and daily rebalancing keeps the portfolio invested rather than sitting in cash.
Sideways market
In a range-bound market returns are modest. Rebalancing keeps harvesting moves between assets, but fees and spreads weigh more heavily when there is little trend to capture.
Bear market
Long-only means no shorting: in a downtrend the portfolio declines along with crypto as a whole. The deepest fall on record is 68.71%, and the strategy is still well below its all-time peak — the chart above shows where it stands. Raising your USDT hedge cuts exposure when you want more safety.
Why diversification matters
Picking the next winning coin is a bet on being right about one asset. An index instead spreads exposure across the market itself — smoothing out the risk of being wrong about any single position.
Risk
Broad exposure across many assets reduces how much any single coin's bad news can hurt your portfolio — one weak position doesn't sink the whole account.
Growth
Instead of timing which single asset will outperform, an index captures the broader growth of the crypto market as a whole.
Horizon
A longer holding horizon smooths out short-term volatility — index-style investing is designed to be held through cycles, not traded around them.
Discipline
Rules-based daily rebalancing removes the guesswork and emotional decision-making that trip up most manual portfolios.
The case for a rules-based crypto index isn't only intuition. Institutional research — including studies from Coinbase Research and Two Sigma's Venn — has found that adding even a small, regularly rebalanced crypto allocation historically improved a traditional portfolio's risk-adjusted returns, because crypto contributes a diversifying source of risk that stocks and bonds alone don't capture.
Same strategy, different exchange
The Stoic AI Crypto Index runs the same rules everywhere, but fees, liquidity and order-size constraints differ by exchange — and Coinbase's fees are notably higher than some competitors, so the strategy trades more slowly here to manage fee drag.

| Coinbase | 0.40% / 0.60% | Intl 0.02% / 0.04% | 275+ supported assets | Higher spot fees at low tiers, so the index trades more slowly to limit fee drag; regulatory access varies by region. |
| Crypto.com | From 0.075% | From 0.034% | 400+ cryptocurrencies | Tiered maker/taker fees; promotions can materially change realised costs. |
| KuCoin | 0.10% / 0.10% | 0.02% / 0.06% | 700+ cryptocurrencies | Very broad listings; liquidity quality varies across long-tail assets. |
