EUDA·ICA advises a deliberately small number of households on the structuring, custody and long-term stewardship of significant crypto-native portfolios. Independent, retainer-based, with no proprietary product and no retrocessions.
The discipline required to serve crypto-native clients is harder to fake than in conventional public markets. Holdings either reconcile to chain state, or they do not.EUDA·ICA team — On stewardship at the family scale
Digital wealth has matured from a speculative position into an asset class that deserves the same fiduciary discipline as any other component of a family balance sheet. The firms equipped to handle it are still few.
EUDA·ICA was built around that gap. The partnership advises a small number of households on portfolios that combine ETH spot, liquid staking, vetted DeFi strategies, regulated stablecoins, and cold storage — under a flat retainer that does not increase with assets, and without retrocessions of any kind.
We are not a fund. We do not solicit deposits, take custody, or trade on behalf of clients. Every position is held by the client, in the client's name, and reconcilable to chain state at any moment.
Disciplined portfolio construction across ETH, liquid staking, DeFi strategies, regulated stablecoins and cold storage — sized to the household's mandate, not to a model allocation.
Self-custody operating standards, multi-signature design, hardware segregation across jurisdictions, and discreet integration with the family's existing legal and operational architecture.
Inter-generational transmission of digital holdings — trust and foundation design adapted for chain-native assets, jurisdictional coordination, and executor protocols that survive contact with reality.
We frame the income profile of a EUDA·ICA mandate in target bands derived from observed protocol economics over rolling twelve-month periods. The bands below reflect the discipline of selection, not a forecast.
Consensus rewards on Ethereum, accessed through audited liquid staking tokens. Income compounds in ETH terms, independent of dollar price action.
Targeted exposure to a handful of vetted protocols with multi-year audit history. Sized below five percent of the mandate per protocol.
USD-denominated income from regulated stablecoins. Sized to cover twelve months of household liquidity at all times.
The figures above are targets, not commitments. Realised outcomes depend on protocol conditions, regulatory developments, and the structuring decisions specific to each client. EUDA·ICA does not earn a performance fee on client portfolios.
The major private banks do many things competently. The custody, allocation and stewardship of significant crypto-native holdings is not consistently among them. The reasons are structural — and they will take a decade to resolve. EUDA·ICA exists for clients who do not have a decade.
Client assets are held in named wallets controlled by the client. We design the operational architecture; we do not take custody.
Every position is verifiable on Ethereum at any moment. Reporting is descriptive, not creative.
We do not earn from product placement, retrocessions, or trading volume. The retainer aligns the incentives over decades, not quarters.
Swiss, French and UK practice — coordinated for households with assets, residents, or heirs across multiple jurisdictions.
Ethereum's transition to proof-of-stake has, for the first time, produced an income-bearing crypto asset with reconciliation properties closer to a sovereign bond than to a speculative position. The 3% to 3.5% yield band is not headline-grabbing. It is, by historical standards, the most replicable and audit-friendly source of crypto income to date.
Around that core, the regulated stablecoin layer in Europe has matured meaningfully since the MiCA framework began applying in mid-2024. The qualitative gap between regulated and crypto-native stablecoins has widened, and the conservative use of USDC and DAI now meets the threshold for inclusion in mandates that, two years ago, would have excluded any on-chain dollar exposure.
Risks remain, and we write about them in detail in our quarterly notes. Concentration in liquid staking protocols, layered slashing surfaces in restaking products, and the still-uneven regulatory treatment of digital assets in inter-generational transmission are all worth tracking. None of them, in our reading, are reasons to defer participation. They are reasons to participate through a specialised counsel.
A mid-year reset on the dossiers that have moved meaningfully since our January outlook. Three positions we hold more firmly than we did six months ago, and two that warrant fresh humility.
Market commentaryAfter a year of compression, Ethereum issuance and validator dynamics are pointing to a more stable yield environment. We unpack what it means for client portfolios.
Market commentaryA price drawdown is not, in itself, a problem statement. The question is whether the income profile of held positions still justifies the duration risk.
