My friend Joe, the pilot, really invests. Reads all the books. Knows all the different systems, philosophies, latest theories. Invests his capital using over a dozen systems simultaneously, combines them, modifies them. Very sophisticated investor right here.

And he loves crypto. While we were asking for extra blankets and a beer, he was quietly positioning a substantial amount of his wealth into a little-known investment called Bitcoin… when it was trading at just under $80.

Yeah, he’s done all right for himself. But that’s just one trade. Can’t exactly buy in over and over again at $80.

“I need to spread my bet, but I’m only averaging around 20% on my other systems, any advice?” Joe asks.  

Joe and I agree on one thing: a 20% return is for the dogs. We wanna make 10X at least.

“Ever heard of The Warrant Strategy Joe?”

“No, what’s that?”

Exactly. This guy has heard of everything, but he hasn’t heard of The Warrant Strategy. And I’m not surprised. I couldn’t even find it on Google.

In my opinion, The Warrant Strategy is the single most effective strategy in all of mining, if not in the entire world of investing. And here’s why:

Every other system, every other way of investing, requires you to tie your money up, often for long periods of time. You buy a share, a coin, an ounce whatever, then you wait for the price to go up, sell, and make a dollar.

Let’s say you have 10k to invest. Just buying shares on the open market, you invest your 10k and you cannot invest it again until you close out that trade.

Now imagine the rules are different.

Imagine a trade that allows you to invest your 10k in exchange for a piece of the company, at a price below what it’s trading for on the stock market. Now imagine being able to pull out that 10k a few months later, while retaining an option to make money on the company, over the next few years.

Now you do it again. And again. And again.

Over the course of a year, you’ve been able to invest your 10k four times, each time retaining a way to make money on that company, and to top it off you bought the shares below market price in the first place. You’ve effectively invested 40k, even though you only have 10k. Do it again the next year, and you’ve effectively invested 80k with only ten thousand dollars, and you still have a way to make money off each of those companies for years to come.

Think it doesn’t exist? It does. And it’s legal.

It’s called warrant harvesting, or The Warrant Strategy. A more thorough explanation:

First off, we’re talking about a strategy primarily implemented with companies trading on the TSX, usually junior mining companies. Why?
