BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--$BTC #Bitcoin--I/O Fund continues to raise the bar, delivering an outstanding 210% cumulative return since its inception in May 2020. With an annualized return of 27.6%, the I/O Fund has consistently outperformed the market, surpassing Wall Street’s most successful investment firms.
In 2024, I/O Fund posted a 35% return, significantly outperforming popular tech ETFs, which recorded an 8% return over the same period. On a cumulative basis, the results translate to a remarkable 219% outperformance compared to competing tech portfolios.

Strategic Research and Bold Market Calls
I/O Fund’s incredible performance stems from strategic expertise and research. Lead Tech Analyst Beth Kindig pinpointed Nvidia as an AI powerhouse as early as 2018 with an entry as low as $3.15 for returns of 4,160% through 2024, hammering home her thesis 25 times before the stock’s historic breakout. In 2021, she boldly predicted Nvidia would surpass Apple as the world’s most valuable company—a once-unthinkable call that has since become reality. This led to the firm issuing nine trade alerts under $20 for its research members.
Acting with conviction, the firm covers dozens of lesser-known AI stocks on their research site, many held at high allocations.
Risk Management & Tactical Positioning
In 2024, I/O Fund had ten positions outperform both the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500, showcasing the firm’s consistency. This follows seven positions beating the broad indexes in 2023.
The I/O Fund Portfolio Manager, Knox Ridley, made a bold bet on Coinbase (COIN) that paid off, with a 17% allocation heading into Q4 and the U.S. election cycle. Bitcoin (BTC) was also expertly timed, with the firm building a 10% position around $26,000, adding more at $40,000, while managing risk with precision. Additionally, the firm actively managed Super Micro (SMCI), securing 270%+ gains while avoiding volatility, achieved 99% returns on another crypto position, and a 164% return on Netflix.
“These have been some of the most unpredictable years in history, marked by extreme tech sector volatility, a dramatic shift from cloud to AI that required meticulous analysis to capture, while seeing strong back-to-back two-year performance from the S&P 500 and QQQs,” noted Lead Tech Analyst Beth Kindig. “This environment made it especially difficult for stock pickers to compete—yet the I/O Fund defied the odds, delivering one of the highest cumulative performances on record.”
Expanding for the Future
For nearly five years, the I/O Fund Team has shattered expectations. The team has plans to increase assets under management in 2025 and is launching a new service aptly called Discovery to help their Research Members surface new momentum-driven ideas. This augments their popular Advanced tier that offers weekly webinars, real-time trade alerts, and portfolio allocations.
The I/O Fund hires an independent accounting firm to conduct its periodic audits. It reviewed statements from January 1st, 2024 through December 31st, 2024 from the company’s brokerage and blockchain accounts and found no discrepancies.
With a proven strategy, precise risk management, and industry-leading research, I/O Fund remains one of the highest-performing portfolios in tech investing today. Learn more here.
