Key Features

Everything you need for crypto platform for family offices

Unified Strategy, Individual Custody

Run a single crypto strategy across the family. Each member keeps their own exchange account and direct custody of their assets. No commingling, no fund formation costs, no redemption windows. The family office runs strategy and oversight while each member keeps control of their capital.

  • Same strategy across every family member
  • Self-custody on each member's exchange account
  • No commingling of family assets
  • Members can withdraw at any time

Discretion and Security

No third party holds family assets. Each account is protected by exchange-level security, and API keys carry trade-only permissions, so withdrawals can't be triggered through the platform. Crypto exposure stays private and there is no single point of failure across the family.

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

Reporting for Wealth Reviews and Tax

Reports cover wealth reviews, quarterly meetings, and year-end tax prep. Track individual member performance and aggregate family exposure over any period. Exports work for wealth advisors, accountants, and estate planners. Advisors can review the data without ever needing exchange access.

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

Multi-Generational Wealth Considerations

Each member owns their exchange account directly, so legacy planning follows standard asset transfer rather than fund dissolution. Younger members can be onboarded with conservative position sizing. The platform works across generations without structural changes.

  • Individual ownership simplifies estate transfers
  • Position sizing per member, conservative through aggressive
  • Easy onboarding for next-gen members
  • No fund dissolution at inheritance events

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Each member keeps their own exchange account with direct custody, instead of a pooled fund. That avoids fund formation legal costs, simplifies tax reporting to per-individual rather than K-1s, and lets members withdraw at any time without redemption windows.

Can different family members have different risk levels?

Position sizing is configurable per account. Conservative members can copy at 50% of the master allocation while more aggressive members take full or amplified sizing. Each member's risk profile is independent.

How does this work with our existing wealth advisors?

Your wealth advisor or chosen investment manager trades on the master account. Family member accounts sync automatically. Reports go to the advisor for review at family meetings, no exchange access required.

What about legacy and estate planning?

Each account is individually owned on a standard exchange, so legacy planning follows the member's estate plan. Exchange accounts can be inherited or transferred through normal legal processes.

Is there a minimum account size per family member?

Autowealth has no minimum. Exchange minimums apply, usually $10-100 per position. That makes it practical to start younger family members with small allocations.
