Why Build Neutral Trade
Why Build Neutral Trade
DeFi is meant to be more than just another yield farm. We built Neutral Trade to change how capital flows in crypto — transforming sophisticated, institutional-grade strategies into composable yield engines accessible to anyone.
Retail users are often at a disadvantage when trading against quants and hedge funds, frequently losing due to a lack of suitable tools, sufficient time, and professional discipline. On the other hand, talented traders remain hindered by legal, operational, and fundraising obstacles.
We fix both — no KYC, no entry barriers or legal barriers, and no fund setup obstacles.
Neutral Trade has democratized access to alpha and capital through DeFi, making it possible for anyone to interact with professional trading strategies and enabling professionals easy access to raising capital.
"This is a game where normal people lose... because you're competing with professional traders and quants." - Jared, CEO of Neutral Trade
Key Features
1. Frictionless Access to Financial Infrastructure
The Problem: Setting up a hedge fund costs $200K+ and takes years to build a track record before accessing institutional capital.
The Solution: Neutral Trade enables traders to operate on-chain from day one — with smart contracts replacing traditional legal, compliance, and administrative overhead.
2. Capital Without Borders
The Problem: High-net-worth individuals and institutions gatekeep strategy access. Retail is stuck in volatility and noise.
The Solution: Anyone with a wallet can access delta-neutral and quant-driven strategies. We turn uncorrelated returns into permissionless building blocks.
3. Transparency, Security, and Composability
The Problem: TradFi funds are black boxes — expensive, slow, and opaque.
The Solution: On Neutral Trade, performance is real-time, transparent, and verifiable.
What is Neutral Trade?
Neutral Trade is DeFi’s version of a multi-strategy hedge fund — inspired by giants like Millennium and Point72 but reimagined for the on-chain world.
Smart-Contract Vaults: Run institutional-grade strategies without fund setup.
Transparent Strategy Marketplace: Anyone can allocate to traders or strategies based on performance.
Composable Yield Blocks: Plug strategies into DeFi protocols, lending markets, or auto-yield routers.
Permissionless Access: No accreditation or KYC required.
We replace opaque TradFi processes with code, transparency, and community ownership — opening access to real yield at scale.
