About

Protocol Wealth serves individual investors (including high‑net‑worth clients) as well as a range of institutional and non‑traditional clients such as cryptocurrency founders, DAOs, foundation treasuries, trusts, and other registered advisers or pooled investment vehicles. The firm offers comprehensive wealth management, financial planning, portfolio management of both traditional securities and digital assets, plus sub‑advisory and institutional consulting services.

The firm’s investment approach combines traditional fundamental and macro analysis with specialized onchain and crypto research, applying strategies such as staking, DeFi yield opportunities, liquidity provision, and derivatives for hedging when appropriate. Protocol Wealth uses a co‑intelligence model—AI tools support research and client reporting under human oversight—and it manages a substantial portion of reported assets on a non‑discretionary or consulting basis rather than solely as discretionary accounts.

Protocol Wealth is notable among peers for offering subscription‑style monthly retainers and project‑based fixed fees in addition to asset‑based arrangements, and for accepting modern payment options including crypto in certain cases. It also provides proprietary client technology (PW Nexus and PW Dashboard), works as a sub‑adviser to funds and other RIAs, and uses institutional‑grade crypto custody and MPC wallet arrangements (with third‑party backup) to support onchain management and reduce single‑party control of clients’ digital assets.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
