The Crypto Bull Portfolio: how a Pilot gets crypto exposure through stocks and ETFs, since Autopilot doesn't trade coins

I'm Chris, co-founder of Autopilot. We don't trade cryptocurrency. Not a policy I hide; it's on our FAQ and in every description of what can happen in your account. And yet there are crypto Portfolios on the platform, because a Pilot can express a view on crypto entirely through companies and exchange-traded funds. The Crypto Bull is the clearest example. Here's what it is, who publishes it, how crypto exposure works when no coin is ever bought, and what to weigh before following.

One thing first, because we're an SEC-registered investment adviser and I have to say it. Autopilot is the app. The actual investment advice comes from Autopilot Advisers, LLC. If you want the full legal version of anything in here, it's on our disclaimer page.

1) The Portfolio

The Crypto Bull launched on Autopilot on November 21, 2024. Its Published Pilot is Wolf Financial and its manager is Autopilot Advisers, LLC. The description: "a high-conviction portfolio centered on the growing influence of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology," focused "on companies driving innovation in digital assets and platforms," and "designed for investors who believe in the transformative potential of the crypto economy." The Crypto Bull fact sheet shows the largest positions by weight with a timestamp, lists the rebalance cadence as not disclosed, and publishes the live record of follower accounts since launch, gross and modeled net, with drawdown and a date on every figure. Following it requires Wolf Financial's Pilot subscription, which covers the Portfolios it publishes here.

2) Who publishes it, by its own account

Wolf Financial's bio on the fact sheet describes it as "combining social media and investment research to build your wealth," and describes its founder as a Goldman Sachs analyst turned CEO. That's its description, presented as its own. It's an independent Pilot, not an investment adviser and not an Autopilot employee. How Pilots and the adviser relate is in How Pilots work: who they are, how they get paid, what they aren't, and how to become one.

3) Crypto exposure without a coin

Autopilot trades stocks and exchange-traded funds, long only, and never cryptocurrency, options, or shorts. So a crypto-theme Portfolio here holds the public companies and ETFs whose fortunes are tied to the sector: businesses that run exchanges, mine, build blockchain infrastructure, hold digital assets on their balance sheets, or offer funds that hold them. That's real exposure to the crypto economy, and it's a different thing from owning a coin. A company's stock carries its own business risk, management, dilution, and valuation on top of the sector's moves, and an ETF carries its structure and fees. Which specific companies and funds this Portfolio holds is on the sheet, with a timestamp, and not here. The full list of what can and can't happen in your account is in What Autopilot will and won't trade in your account: stocks and ETFs, never options, crypto, or shorts, and what happens to the positions you already own.

4) The other crypto-theme Portfolio

Peter Wolff publishes Wolff's Crypto Revolution Fund, launched February 5, 2025, described as a "specialized, high concentration investment vehicle targeting companies and ETFs poised to become leaders in the crypto and blockchain sector." Same idea, different Pilot, different rules; it's in Peter Wolff's Portfolios on Autopilot: the Flagship, the Top 15, the ETF Strategy, the Medical Edge, the AI and Crypto Revolution funds, and the All Weather, and what one subscription covers. Following both is one crypto bet with two names on it.

5) How following works, and what to weigh

You connect the brokerage you already have, pick the Portfolio, and set how much of the account follows it. Then you give Autopilot Advisers limited authority to send orders to that account. When the Portfolio changes, we send them and your broker fills them. The money stays put. Before that: crypto-linked equities have historically swung harder than the broad market when the sector moves, which is exactly what a "bull" Portfolio is built to capture and exactly what a drawdown figure measures. Read the drawdown on the sheet before the return, look at how concentrated the largest positions are, and decide whether a single-sector conviction Portfolio fits next to what you already own. The method is in How to read a Portfolio's track record before you follow it.

Frequently asked questions

What is The Crypto Bull Portfolio on Autopilot?

A Portfolio published by Wolf Financial and managed by Autopilot Advisers, LLC, live since November 21, 2024. Per its description it is a high-conviction Portfolio centered on cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, holding companies driving innovation in digital assets and platforms, for investors who believe in the crypto economy's potential. It holds stocks and ETFs, never coins. Its fact sheet shows the largest positions and the live follower record; following it requires Wolf Financial's Pilot subscription.

Does Autopilot invest in Bitcoin or crypto directly?

No. Autopilot trades stocks and exchange-traded funds, long only, and does not trade cryptocurrency, options, or shorts. Crypto exposure on Autopilot comes only through Portfolios that hold public companies and ETFs tied to the sector, such as The Crypto Bull and Wolff's Crypto Revolution Fund. Owning a coin directly is something you would do yourself at a venue that offers it, outside your Autopilot allocation.

Who is Wolf Financial?

An independent Pilot on Autopilot whose bio describes it as combining social media and investment research, founded by a Goldman Sachs analyst turned CEO, by its own account. It publishes The Crypto Bull Portfolio; Autopilot Advisers, LLC is the manager that applies it to follower accounts. Wolf Financial is not an investment adviser and not an Autopilot employee. Goldman Sachs is not affiliated with Autopilot.

How can I get crypto exposure through a stock portfolio?

By owning the public companies and funds whose fortunes are tied to the sector: exchanges, miners, blockchain infrastructure builders, companies holding digital assets, and ETFs that hold them. That is what a crypto-theme Portfolio on Autopilot does, in your own brokerage account, without ever buying a coin. The trade-off is that each stock adds its own business and valuation risk on top of the sector's moves, and each ETF adds its structure and fees.

TLDR

We never trade coins, so a crypto Portfolio here is companies and ETFs tied to the sector, which is real exposure with a company's risks layered on top. The Crypto Bull, from Wolf Financial, is the high-conviction version, live since November 21, 2024, record on the sheet, its subscription to follow. Read the drawdown before the return, and if a single-sector bull case is yours: If one fits, choose a Portfolio and connect your brokerage. Then give Autopilot Advisers limited authority to send orders to that account. When the Portfolio changes, we send them and your broker fills them. Depending on your plan and brokerage, you may need to confirm first. The money stays put.
