About SharpByte Capital
SharpByte Capital is a crypto-native yield fund focused on market-neutral and asymmetric returns: it screens on-chain vaults and lending markets, runs stablecoin loops, basis and options structures, and uses off-chain channels to secure liquidity allocations ahead of token generation events. A second line is vault curation, opening isolated markets for specific assets on infrastructure such as Morpho and Upshift, setting collateral parameters, liquidation thresholds and strategy mixes, and allocating across senior and junior tranches of real-world assets, automated market maker fees and bespoke issuer deals.
The two lines feed each other: proprietary strategies supply the return sample, curation turns the method into a product for issuers needing isolated markets and depositors seeking stablecoin yield. Unlike a pure fund it sits on both the trading and infrastructure sides, so strategy capacity is bounded by a small set of partner venues and issuer asset supply, and collateral concentration in any one market feeds straight into vault performance.
On July 28, 2025, Marco Manoppo publicly announced the launch of SharpByte Capital and confirmed Bizyugo as advisor. The fund's announced scope covered on-chain yield curation, pre-TGE opportunities, and protocol advisory.
On May 27, 2026, Fluent mainnet went live; SharpByte's earnUSDnr vault migrated from pre-deposit to production, becoming the primary stablecoin yield strategy for USDnr on Fluent, with initial strategy in native lending optimization.
On August 6, 2026, SharpByte RWA Ecosystem Vault launched on Upshift, targeting USDC on Ethereum mainnet. Its strategies covered RWA money-market lending, senior/junior tranches, leveraged RWA arbitrage, and negotiated liquidity delegation, operating across Ethereum and Solana.
On October 23, 2026, the BVI FSC register listed SharpByte Capital Limited as an Approved Fund with status "Currently Regulated Entities," registered in Road Town, BVI.
In August 2026 SharpByte Capital launched the RWA Ecosystem Vault on Upshift, using a single USDC deposit to cover the full capital structure of tokenized assets: lending into RWA money markets, holding senior and junior tranches, running levered carry when asset yield exceeds borrowing cost, and providing liquidity under terms negotiated directly with issuers. The vault reaches both Ethereum and Solana through subaccounts, while depositors hold one position and receive upSBRWA as the share token.
Risk control runs through Upshift's policy engine, which restricts capital at the chain, protocol, token and function level, so the curator can only rebalance within approved venues and depositors keep self-custody with every allocation visible onchain. Disclosed figures show the vault tracking from August 5, peak size of about $2.12 million, net annualized return near 12.7% and a three-month Sharpe ratio around 8.4, with a three-day lockup, a 10% performance fee and 0.3% management fee. SharpByte also curates earnUSDnr, the primary stablecoin yield vault on Fluent that went live on Upshift in April.
SharpByte Capital turns the four-layer RWA allocation into a repeatable strategy template, expands cross-chain subaccounts and direct issuer mandates, and improves disclosure around stress tests for credit events and redemption congestion.
