What This Means for the Registry
In a low-volatility, risk-on environment with elevated rates, strategies with equity beta and momentum exposure have an inherent tailwind. Registry operators showing strong returns in this regime may face a different test when conditions shift. The verification process captures performance across market cycles to build a durable track record.
