Why copy-pasta?

The best way to copy the smartest traders in crypto.

There is an astonishing transfer of wealth which is taking place from older generations to younger generations over the next 5-10 years, compounded with an increasing appetite for crypto (pardon the pasta pun).

We are perfectly positioned to capitalise on this opportunity.

Trading crypto profitably is hard.

  1. Complex Massive information asymmetries.

  2. Scammy Easy to get rugged with limited protection in place.

  3. Exhausting Research and trading is a 24/7/365 job.

copy-pasta makes it easy.

  1. Smart Enhanced alpha, starting with identifying the smartest on-chain traders globally, then becoming the smartest trader globally.

  2. Secure No scams. Elevated control in a non-custodial way.

  3. Simple Fully automated & compounding trading strategies.

Copy trading today is broken.

It is an important problem which hasn't been solved, until now.

Every other copy-trading platform needs to onboard "Smart Traders".

But really smart traders do not onboard to copy-trading platforms. They just trade.

This is why we have identified the smartest traders globally, based on their on-chain trading activity. Then built an engine to anonymously copy their trading activity. It's important that 'Smart Traders' do not know they're being copied, as they could direct liquidity as they see fit (honeypot scams), as well as a myriad of other bad things which can happen.

Product roadmap

Alpha-enhanced trading strategies to deliver very saucy returns.

✅ Beta Version - Copy the trades of the smartest traders (in real time)

This worked, until it didn't. We needed to bring more sophistication towards our alpha generation to include sophisticated risk management practices. We learned a lot in this process and it's been incredibly exciting to see these risk areas addressed (which was been a primary focus, and successfully embedded into our V1).

✅ V1 Product Launch - Extract Alpha from the smartest traders (individually -> collectively)

Users have indicated from our beta launch that they want to follow multiple traders as well as make it as simple as possible, with as little work as possible from them. We have listened. Launched on the 11th October!

V1.1 - Open up on-chain pathways for users beyond CEXs.

This has been consistent feedback from users and we have listened. Stay tuned for updates.

V1.2 - Apply our sophisticated trend trading algorithms to long + short trading with Perps/Futures.

Our product is trend agnostic. This is by design and incredibly powerful. More to come on this pathway shortly.

V1.3 - Introduce extra alpha / collaborations / partnerships to take everything to the next level!

a) Alpha -> AI -> Intelligence

Our foundation of copying the smartest traders will evolve into being the smartest trader, enabled by having real-time alpha in the most sophisticated manner.

b) Trading -> Trading experts + AI trading agents -> Perps as well as spot

c) Execution -> Frictionless multi-CEX CeFi + multi-chain DeFi exposure

If anyone has feedback or ideas, definitely reach out to us! We would love to hear from you. Saucy times are on the horizon!

It is essentially competition between humans vs. machines. Live trading is the ultimate test and we are testing a myriad of different strategies to deliver the best outcomes. We have seen some intriguing pathways with the likes of and a few other potential partners to take this to new heights.

There are some very interesting partnerships in the works with the likes of to enable a frictionless pathway for users to engage, as well as wider access to a universe of deep liquidity pools for trading -> optimised price execution.

Our 'secret sauce'

The inner workings of the copy-pasta kitchen.

We have analysed over 100 million on-chain DEX trades to isolate the best traders for users to follow.

Great recipes take generations to perfect. It took us 10 months to get the most valuable ingredients for your pasta dishes. We aren't finished, but we've made a great start.

Guiding principles that have steered our path and remain at the core of our approach:

  1. Do not underestimate the importance of accurate price data.

  2. Filter out noisy activity that does not achieve the desired outcomes.

  3. Understand that crypto volume is variable and can fluctuate for various reasons; use it cautiously in algorithms.

  4. By questioning the consensus view and analysing data through a fresh lens, we uncovered hidden gems and exploited market inefficiencies in new ways.

  5. Blindly copying trades is a very risky strategy and should therefore be avoided.

  6. Never shy away from a pasta pun. Ever.

Optimise for slippage.

Slippage sucks, which is why we are focusing on it.

We are in the midst of a range of optimisations for this step of the process and will share in due course. It starts with ensuring the right allocation to high liquidity tokens & venues to ensure users can get the best prices for the best timed entry and exits. There are lots of pathways we can and will explore here.

More to come 🤝

Optimise entries + exits.

Risk & reward management is all about timing (and a lot of data)

We tested this with our Strategic Partners and achieved +150% returns in 3 weeks (real $$).

By following the signals from the smartest traders, we now know which token is hot.

The next step is to optimise the timing of when to buy & sell, and at an acceptable price.

Algorithmically optimised entry / exit timing.

We have sophisticated trend volatility algorithms which analyse vast datasets, including historical prices and market trends, to determine the most favourable entry and exit points, thereby optimising your overall performance. It won't perfectly pick the bottom and the top, but has shown to generate favourable outcomes.

Massive market opportunity

It's big enough now, and about to get A LOT bigger.

The current phase of crypto has been linked by many to that of the internet era of the 90s. It has huge potential, but it's far too technical at the moment for the masses.

This has already started to change, but one thing is for certain is that there are going to be a lot of people with crypto trading FOMO wanting to enter a sophisticated trading arena, with limited understanding of how the crypto ecosystem works.

Enter copy-pasta 🍝

"Web3 adoption is expected to increase by 50% over the next three years."

What's also wild about the crypto ecosystem is that it's not just developed markets, but emerging markets showing continued (and increasing) interest!

"Nearly 70% of people in emerging markets are planning to use at least one Web3 service, compared to only 31.7% in developed markets."

Web3 is a very recent technology, and thus while people are generally aware of it, 46% of non-users do not know enough about the technology to adopt it, and 27% do not know where to start.

Why did we start by only informing trades on CEXs?

The tldr is that it's for safety, security & liquidity. Additionally, it's where the market is (and will be in the future).

  1. Enhanced due diligence: Listed tokens on CEXs have undergone a rigorous vetting process, providing an additional layer of security and trust.

  2. Superior liquidity: CEXs offer significantly higher liquidity compared to on-chain trading, ensuring more efficient order execution and reduced slippage.

  3. Non-custodial: We don't handle anyone's money, we just provide insights.

  4. Robust security measures: CEXs implement advanced security features such as IP whitelisting, granular permissions, and multi-factor authentication, creating a secure trading environment for users.

  5. Lower transaction fees: Lower transaction fees on CEXs make trading more accessible and cost-effective for users, although the emergence of Layer 2 solutions presents exciting opportunities for further optimisation.

  6. Wider access: By leveraging CEXs, we enable a wider audience, including traditional finance (TradFi) users, to gain exposure to crypto trading without the complexities of setting up smart wallets or navigating on-chain protocols.

"The key entry point into Web3 is through a centralized exchange, as these platforms are currently the primary rails of connecting Web3 with the rest of the economy. Web3 will for the most part be driven by the ability of the exchanges to educate and harness users to the breadth of products offered in the Web3 ecosystem." :

Find the smartest traders.

Identify the people making the tastiest gains (in % terms).

Analysed over 100 million trades from 3 years of trading to isolate the best traders, globally.

We focus on those with clear alpha (timing of their entry vs. market price), making repeatable % gains over a sustained period (minimum 12 months).

Find wallets that repeatedly buy low, then sell high. Spot. No leverage.

We filter out all of the on-chain noise (and wallet-hiding activities) to find purity in trading profiles. Keeping it very simple (for now).

Navigating cold & hot wallets, yield farming / staking, airdrops, different DEX data patterns, DEX trading pairs, price sensitivities, ... it is complex!

The most common trading mistake is to chase the FOMO = Risking it all to get the next Axie Infinity 2,000x trade, when they could be focusing on compounding returns that lead to exponential gains.

$500 * only 3% per trade * 250 trades = $809k.

$500 * 1.03 = $515 $515 * 1.03 = $530 $530 * 1.03 = $546 $546 * 1.03 = $562 ... you see where this is going 🍝

Of course this is theoretical and the proof comes in real trading (incl. impact of slippage). But to start with, it's important that the traders that we shortlist make more profitable trades with higher profit %, than unprofitable trades with smaller losses %.

What happens if you compound down vs. compound up?

The tldr is bad things can happen. This is why it's important to bring sophistication into the mix to optimise entries + exits, instead of blindly following all trades.

This is a screenshot from a post by . The staging of the Y-axis in this graph misses the mark on how wild the growth will be in the next 6 years. It's exponential!

Answers to questions which have already been asked:

We will update this periodically in case similar questions surface. But to be transparent, we don't have all the answers, some things need to be tested.

Are you just trading low-caps?

No. The majority of trades are made in the higher-cap, more liquid tokens. With that being said we don't restrict trading of lower caps, we just optimise for slippage.

Why aren't you insanely rich yet and trading yourself?

Great question. If we had the trading capital we would have explored prop trading, but we feel we can 'eat our own dog food' whilst help our users on their trading journey at the same time. There is enough room for all of us, as well as a more rewarding experience to help change the lives of others.

The returns look too good to be true. Are they?

We agree. It's important to note that back-tested results can be incredible variable, we know that and have done some live trading with more sophistication, which in itself also looks wild (+150% returns in 3 weeks).

Can your Smart Traders sustain their performance?

On an individual basis, they'll run hot & cold. It's only natural. But as a diversified collective of Smart Traders in the market at the moment, there is a lot of smart signals to go around to achieve favourable outcomes.

Is there a point where you become too big to service?

Initial estimates would put it at currently around $100m of traded capital for a particular trading strategy. But we think this number is going to significantly increase. Why? If we take into account the astonishing transfer of wealth which is taking place from older generations to younger generations over the next 5-10 years, compounded with the projected adoption of crypto, it's going to be wild.

Will the underlying “copy traded” wallets ever be exposed to users?

No. This is important that the wallets remain anonymous to ensure no bad behaviours from the wallets themselves. Protecting users from getting rekt is of paramount importance.

Any other questions you have please let us know.
