What is DeCA
DeCA is the first decentralized application (dApp) that enables users to perform Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) together in perpetual futures trading entirely on-chain.

Through DeCA, users can create a Pool, invite others to contribute capital, and receive shares that represent their proportional ownership within that Pool. Users hold shares as proof of ownership in each DCA CoTrade Pool. To take profit or stop loss, participants must vote to close the Pool. If at least 51% of share holders vote to close, the Pool will be terminated and profits or losses are distributed on-chain according to each holder’s share ratio.
DeCA transforms the traditional concept of futures trading by integrating the power of DCA into a transparent, collaborative, and community-driven ecosystem.
The Problem
Futures trading has always been a high-risk, high-leverage market. While it offers amplified rewards, it also exposes traders - especially retail participants - to severe liquidation risks during periods of market volatility.
Individual traders often face the following challenges:
High leverage exposure: Small price fluctuations can trigger forced liquidations.
Lack of collective trading models: Most traders act alone, without mechanisms to share risk or pool resources.
Poor capital management tools: Existing platforms fail to integrate DCA strategies effectively within leveraged trading environments.
Opaque systems: Many centralized platforms operate without transparency, creating trust and execution concerns.
As a result, the majority of retail futures traders suffer losses due to over-leverage, isolated risk, and inefficient position management.
Trading Alone - Taking Risk - Getting Liquidated.
DeCA Solution
DeCA introduces the CoTrade DCA Pool, a decentralized trading framework where users can trade perpetual futures together, share profits collectively, and reduce the risk of liquidation through automated DCA strategies.
Each CoTrade Pool functions as a transparent on-chain trading fund managed by smart contracts. Every order, margin adjustment, and settlement event is executed trustlessly on the blockchain, ensuring verifiability, security, and fairness for all participants.
To enhance user understanding and promote responsible trading, DeCA provides the CoTrade Pool Simulator- a powerful analytical tool that allows traders to simulate DCA strategies, visualize risk levels, and estimate profit outcomes before deploying real capital.
By combining collective participation, on-chain transparency, and risk-managed automation, DeCA redefines the future of perpetual trading.
Trading is no longer a solitary battle against volatility. It becomes a shared journey of cooperation, data-driven execution, and sustainable growth.
Sharing Risk - Sharing Profit - No Liquidate.
