Founder & Managing Partner

Our financial strategy is built on a simple belief: that disciplined risk management and deep macro insight can deliver durable returns across market cycles. We do not chase short-term noise. We focus on structural opportunities in digital assets—where volatility is a feature, not a bug—and we combine rigorous quantitative frameworks with fundamental research to capture alpha for our clients.

Capital preservation is the foundation. Every position we take is sized against our conviction and our risk limits. We have built Vertex Labs to be the partner of choice for institutional investors who want exposure to crypto and digital assets without compromising on governance, transparency, or risk standards.

Founding Partner

Sergiy Yurchenko

Founding Partner

I focus on backing founders building crypto infrastructure, DeFi protocols, and exchanges with a clear path to real adoption. I look for sound economics, evidence of customer demand, and teams that can execute with discipline. At Vertex Labs, my approach combines careful investment selection with practical support in fundraising, strategic relationships, and business development.

I believe lasting value comes from understanding how a product is used, why customers return, and whether a business can scale responsibly. My goal is to help founders build resilient companies with strong commercial foundations.

Co-Founder & Partner

Strong partnerships begin with understanding what each side needs and where our interests align. Drawing on my experience in digital growth at Telcoin and Zumo, I focus on building relationships between Vertex Labs, investors, founders, and strategic partners. My approach is practical: establish clear objectives, identify commercial opportunities, and turn shared ambitions into action.

I believe lasting growth depends on trust, transparency, and consistent execution. At Vertex Labs, my goal is to develop partnerships that expand market access, support our clients’ ambitions, and create meaningful value for everyone involved.

Our Approach

Investment Approach

Our investment approach combines directional, relative value and derivative trading strategies in crypto and digital assets, designed to deliver orthogonal but complementary returns across a broad range of investment solutions.
