Our Thesis

"This is a game where normal people lose... because you're competing with professional traders and quants." - Derek, CEO of Neutral Trade

Most retail participants in crypto markets are trading against systematic hedge funds running delta-neutral, arbitrage, and momentum strategies at scale. The outcome is predictable. Meanwhile, the teams running those strategies face a different problem: legal overhead, fund setup costs, and investor relations that consume resources better spent on alpha generation.

For allocators: Access the same strategy types run by systematic funds, cross-exchange arbitrage, funding rate capture, CTA, volatility arbitrage, through permissionless on-chain vaults. No accreditation. No opaque fund structures. Performance and capital movements are recorded on-chain and verifiable in real time.

For trading teams: Deploy strategies through Neutral Strategy Vaults infrastructure without legal setup, investor relations overhead, or manual fee calculations. Neutral Trade provides custody (Copper, Ceffu), exchange access, and automated per-wallet high-water-mark fee charging. Your IP stays yours.

What are we

Neutral Trade is a strategy marketplace, inspired by Millennium and Point72, but built on-chain.

Allocators deposit into audited smart contract vaults. Trading teams (curators) manage capital within those vaults. Neutral Trade provides the infrastructure layer: custody, execution access, fee automation, and on-chain transparency.
