Summary
Samara Alpha, established in January 2023, arrives with institutional pedigree and measurable performance credentials. The firm's founding team pioneered tokenized private equity alongside KKR at Securitize Capital, positioning them at the forefront of digital asset infrastructure innovation. Over its nearly three-year operating history, Samara Alpha has developed market-neutral and BTC-denominated fund-of-funds strategies that have consistently ranked within BarclayHedge's Top Ten Multi-Advisor Funds and earned a shortlist nomination for Hedgeweek's Fund of Funds of the Year 2026, with winners to be announced in June.
Amitis Capital operates ACDAM, its flagship digital asset multi-manager fund, which provides diversified exposure across liquid directional, market-neutral, and venture strategies. The Samara Alpha integration enhances this platform by consolidating proven fund-of-funds strategies and the operational infrastructure supporting them. Monica Monajem, Founder and CEO of Amitis Capital, contextualized the integration as integral to Amitis's foundational mission: "The ambition is to build for digital assets what Blackstone, KKR and Apollo built in private markets - a scaled platform that institutional allocators rely on. Amitis was built with that objective from day one, and integrating Samara Alpha is a meaningful step towards that vision." This positioning reflects Amitis Capital's intent to establish digital assets as a legitimate institutional asset class with comparable infrastructure depth to traditional alternatives.
