Who it’s for
Individual professional traders
Personal track record, personal stake, personal KYC.
Funds, partnerships, RIAs
The entity is the vault manager; named principals are attested.
Algorithmic trading desks
Strategy disclosed at a high level; optional code review for senior tiers.
Market makers
Vault used to underwrite MM inventory, with a transparency commitment.
Why a Direct Vault
LP capital on your terms
You set the performance fee (10–30%), lockup, min deposit, visibility, and access rules at creation.
Multi-venue
Not locked to a single platform. Bybit today; more CEXes and on-chain DEXes as integration completes.
Position privacy
Aggregate-only mode is the default — your live position book stays hidden from copy-trading bots.
On-chain track record
Your performance is verifiable per LP cost basis, building a portable, provable history.
