Trader Ponds & Investment Strategies

Our unique Trader Pond system allows for Operators to trade a range of markets depending on their personal experience and goals; be it is memecoins, mid-caps, macros/perps, or yield farming.

Each Pond has it's own unique Operator and class of assets that are being traded. Contributors can decide what market/trader they want exposure to and allocate funds accordingly. Each Pond can provide exposure to entirely different markets than the others. As the market changes, so can a Pond Operator's capital management strategies.

The ACYC protocol is designed to allow Contributors to gain exposure to many varying markets, depending on what Trader Ponds are available, and what market they each want exposure to.

Each Pond in the ecosystem will have a unique Operator, a specific class of asset traded, and a pre-determined ROI for the Pond that, when reached, will mark the closure and distribution of the Pond returns.

When a Pond target return is reached, the positions are liquidated and the returns are distributed to Pond Contributors, Pond Operators/Traders, $ACYC token holders, and ACYC operative costs.

If a Pond Operator decides for any reason that the goal of return for the Pond can't be achieved, be it market conditions or anything else, they can choose to liquidate the Pond and return the remaining amount back to Contributors.

Eventually, the $ACYC token will be a means for Contributors to vote to remove a Pond Operator as well for any reason, be it inactivity, poor performance, etc. Initially, ACYC will manually review and handle disputes like this until governance is ready.

Soon, we/ACYC will be open the first several Ponds to seed the protocol and act as a proof-of-concept for the model; allowing us to build up the capital to complete the long-term vision of allowing anyone* to open their own Trader Pond.

As with all investments and traders, there is no guarantee of success/return; it is also possible for the Trader to underperform and lose the money provided to their Pond through bad investments, meaning no return or distributions.
