fund count last 6Q

■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 67% medium
■ 33% new
Only 0 funds (0%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
3 → 4 → 1 → 2 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 1 → 2 → 2. GIFT is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🌱
Early stage — 67% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 33% 1-2yr
■ 67% new
Of 12 current holders: 8 (67%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
🏆
Elite ownership — 74% AUM from top-100 funds
74% from top-100 AUM funds
6 of 12 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 74% of total institutional value in GIFT. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
