Key Features

Everything you need for crypto platform for family offices

Unified Strategy, Individual Custody

Execute a single crypto investment strategy across multiple family member accounts. Each member maintains their own exchange account with direct custody of their assets. No asset commingling, no fund formation costs, no redemption periods. The family office manages strategy and oversight while individuals retain full control over their capital.

  • Consistent strategy across all family members
  • Individual self-custody on personal exchange accounts
  • No commingling of family assets
  • Members can withdraw their own assets at any time

Discretion and Security

Self-custody means no third party holds family assets. Each account is protected by exchange-level security with trade-only API permissions that prevent unauthorized withdrawals. The family's crypto exposure stays private, and no single point of failure exposes the entire portfolio. Suitable for high-net-worth families who prioritize asset security and discretion.

  • No third-party custody risk
  • Trade-only API keys prevent withdrawals
  • No single point of failure across accounts
  • Private, discreet asset management

Reporting for Wealth Reviews and Tax

Generate reports for family wealth reviews, quarterly meetings, and year-end tax preparation. Track individual member performance and aggregate family exposure over any time period. Export data in formats suitable for wealth advisors, accountants, and estate planners. The reporting layer gives your wealth advisory team the data they need without requiring exchange access.

  • Individual and aggregate family performance reports
  • Tax-ready data exports for accountants
  • Advisor-friendly formats for wealth review meetings
  • Historical performance data for generational planning

Multi-Generational Wealth Considerations

Since each family member maintains an individually owned exchange account, legacy planning follows standard asset transfer processes rather than complex fund dissolution. Younger family members can be onboarded with conservative position sizing. The platform scales across generations without structural changes.

  • Individual account ownership simplifies estate transfers
  • Adjustable position sizing per member (conservative to aggressive)
  • Easy onboarding for next-generation family members
  • No fund dissolution required for inheritance events

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this differ from setting up a family crypto fund?

Unlike a pooled family fund, each member maintains their own exchange account with direct custody. This avoids fund formation legal costs, simplifies tax reporting to per-individual instead of K-1s, and lets members withdraw their own assets anytime without redemption periods or fund-level restrictions.

Can different family members have different risk levels?

Yes. Position sizing is configurable per account. Conservative members can copy with smaller relative positions (e.g., 50% of the master allocation) while more aggressive members take full-sized or amplified positions. Each member's risk profile is independent.

How does this work with our existing wealth advisors?

Your wealth advisor or designated investment manager trades on the master account. All family member accounts sync automatically. Reports generate for the advisor to review and present at family meetings. The advisor does not need exchange access to review performance data.

What about legacy and estate planning?

Since each account is individually owned on a standard exchange, legacy planning follows the member's existing estate plan. Exchange accounts can be inherited or transferred through normal legal processes without fund-level complications.

Is there a minimum account size per family member?

AutoWealth does not impose minimums. Exchange minimums apply (typically $10-100 for a position). This makes it practical to onboard younger family members with smaller initial allocations.
