Job Verheijen - Data Analyst Fund Manager Fund Developer
From a young age, I developed a passion for investing. At 15, I created my first “paper” stock portfolio, getting familiar with the teachings of legends like Warren Buffet and Benjamin Graham. This all accelerated in 2017 when I stumbled upon the Bitcoin whitepaper. From that moment my future was clear, I would find my succes in crypto fund management.

Efficiency
Focus on the path of greatest value creation, considering choices including opportunity costs, to identify the most efficient approach.
Eager to learn

Aiming to pass local (Dutch) exams to be qualified as a financial investment advisor. Being able to legally advise potential clients, and learn to professionally write advices.
Fund Projects
This crypto project began with friends seeking my help after falling victim to scam crypto investments. After giving them some advice, they suggested I could just manage their funds instead. I took on the challenge, applying a risk-averse, blockchain-first methodology that has (so far) maintained a perfect record against hacks, scams, or exploits. Over time, this grew into a more professionally managed private service, complete with a personal-dashboard and regular updates.

I was tasked with exploring opportunities in the evolving carbon emission rights markets. This involved researching investment options, identifying platforms like Interactive Brokers for market exposure and developing strategies to diversify across systems and assets. Our investment approach is guided by EU/ARB policies and driven by aggregate third-party forecasts of market scarcity and demand.

After completing the CO2 fund, I conducted marketing research to explore opportunities for offering our alternative fund management services. I discovered that our three strategies, uncorrelated with traditional markets or each other, presented distinct risk and growth profiles. This made them an ideal mix for an alternative ‘index’ fund, especially if we actively manage fund distributions based on market sentiment.
Additionally, this approach simplifies capital acquisition for the CO2- and Crypto funds.

In 2024, I took the initiative to overhaul the Crypto Fund at Topfund that started in 2022, revamping both its management system and strategy. I aligned the strategy with ‘The Paradigm Shift’ and transitioned the management system to Amdax, which allowed for seamless staking while ensuring that investor ownership of coins remained secure, even in the event of bankruptcy. As a contingency, I onboarded the fund to Phemex for future automated trading strategies using their integrated API, achieving a balance between flexibility, safety, and liquidity.

Website Projects
Topfund Data Dashboard
Showing fund strategies in a visual way
Tasked with creating an easier insight in our fund performances for internal or external use, I opted to collect daily NAV records to then visualize this in several graphs and indicators using a web dashboard. This page automatically updates based on one excel sheet. This project was led by me and created with the help of our software engineer.

Hobbies
I build stuff!
Why waste money if you can do it yourself? Just grab some materials, get started and find out what you end up with.
My philosophy is simple, if you don’t try you will never know what you are capable of.
Usually I plan ahead 70% of these projects and leave the rest up to fate and improvisation.
