About
Unsigned Research unites quantitative scientists, engineers, and risk professionals with deep experience in high-performance computing, doctoral research, and institutional trading environments. We treat strategy research, software engineering, and operations as a single, integrated discipline.
Our platform revisits enduring methods from traditional finance through a first-principles lens, codifying them into algorithms and supporting infrastructure that has been tested over multiple market regimes. We combine deterministic engineering with pragmatic discretion to manage liquidity, counterparty exposure, and execution cost.
As a crypto-native firm, we hold Bitcoin on our balance sheet to ensure the company’s long-term sustainability, pairing that conviction with conservative risk parameters that prioritise drawdown control and capital preservation without sacrificing innovation.
Ethos
We interrogate every idea for correctness, not hierarchy.
We invest in research pathways that compound over cycles.
We advocate for decentralised market rails and resilient infrastructure.
We align incentives with measurable, collective performance.
Values
Risk Management First
Capital is only deployed once risks are quantified, bounded, and continuously observed.
Future Driven
We anticipate structural shifts in microstructure, liquidity, and regulation, not short-term noise.
Meritocracy
Execution precision outweighs tenure; the best idea supported by data advances.
Precision
We maintain disciplined scope, instrumenting every component for clarity and auditability.
First Principles
We deconstruct complex systems to fundamentals before rebuilding robust solutions.
Integrity
Transparency, accountability, and fairness are non-negotiable across partners and trades.
