Future Split

How a share of principal becomes a contribution, plus Feeback and Win Sweep.

Definition

A Future Split is the portion of a transaction's principal that becomes a contribution to the user's own account. It is derived from the account holder's Future Rate and nothing else. The application supplies the notional; the protocol supplies the percentage.

Worked example
Original input$1,000.00
Future Split$10.00
Amount traded$990.00
Protocol Match at 20%+$2.00
Added to Investor 2060$12.00

How the amount is derived

The contribution is computed against the notional the application reports, floored to the settlement currency's smallest unit, and capped by the account holder's daily maximum.

Input
Notional value of the user action, in the settlement currency.
Rate
The account's Future Rate. Range 0.5% to 2.0%.
Daily cap
An account-level ceiling. Contributions pause for the rest of the day once reached.
Rounding
Floored to the cent. Rounding dust is never contributed.
Result
The contribution, which the application deducts from the amount it executes.

The preview an application renders is read from the connected account, never set by the application. A client that sets a rate itself will be rejected at settlement.

Feeback

Feeback is the same idea applied to the fee rather than the principal. An application that already charges a fee redirects a share of it into the user's account. The user pays exactly what they paid before; the destination of part of that fee changes.

Feeback is funded by the application, not the user. It is the only mechanism in the protocol where the contribution does not reduce the amount the user was going to transact with.
Funded by
The application, from fee revenue it already collects.
Typical range
10% to 50% of the fee charged on the activity.
Settlement
Included in the same four-hour batch as Future Splits.
Disclosure
The redirected share is shown to the user before the transaction.

Win Sweep

Win Sweep applies to verified realised profit on a closed position. The account holder sets a rate between 5% and 25%, and only that share of profit is routed into the account. A losing exit never triggers a sweep, and unrealised gains are never eligible.

Trigger
A closed position with a positive realised result, reported by the venue.
Basis
Realised profit only. Cost basis is supplied by the reporting application.
Rate
Set by the account holder. Zero disables the mechanism entirely.
Verification
The realised figure is checked against the position receipt before settlement.

Limits and safety

Each mechanism has a different funder, a different trigger and a different ceiling.

Rate ceiling

Daily maximum
Account-level. Contributions stop for the day once reached.
Minimum contribution
$0.01. Amounts below the floor are not routed.
Pausing
The account holder can set the rate to zero at any time, with immediate effect.
