CoTrade Profit Sharing & Fees

The CoTrade Profit Sharing and Fee System defines how rewards and incentives operate within the DeCA ecosystem. It ensures fairness for all participants, from individual investors to pool creators, and aligns the interests of users and the platform with long-term success. All execution and settlement events are enforced by smart contracts, ensuring transparency, automation, and decentralization.


Pool Exit and Settlement

A CoTrade Pool can be closed in two ways:

  1. The Host can close the pool at any time

  2. The pool will close automatically when at least 51 percent of share holders vote to close

When a pool closes:

  • All open positions are settled on-chain

  • Profit and loss is calculated based on final equity

  • Funds are distributed to participants according to their share ratio

  • No user can prevent settlement once one of the above conditions is met

This structure preserves strategic control for the Host, while also empowering the community to close the pool collectively to protect shared capital.


Profit Distribution Model

Once settlement occurs:

  • All unrealized PnL is converted into realized profit or loss

  • Each participant receives their share of the final pool value based on ownership percentage

There are no fees on trading volume or share transfers. Value is realized only at settlement, which prevents short-term speculation and reinforces cooperative positioning.


Fee Model

DeCA charges fees only on profit

When a pool closes and profit exists, a 10 percent fee applies to net profits:

  • 5 percent to the Host

  • 5 percent to the Platform

Join pool fee: 1%. This fee will be split as 0.5% for the Pool Creator and 0.5% for the platform.


Fee Transparency

All fee distribution is:

  • Visible on-chain

  • Executed through smart contracts

  • Immutable once triggered

The DeCA interface and blockchain explorers provide full visibility into:

  • Final pool equity

  • PnL calculation

  • Fee deduction (5 percent Host, 5 percent Platform)

  • Net user distribution

This guarantees accurate and verifiable settlement.


Incentive Alignment

The CoTrade Fee System creates a balanced environment where:

  • Users benefit from transparent and collective trading

  • Hosts earn rewards for effective pool management

  • The platform grows only when users succeed

This structure encourages disciplined strategies, transparent execution, and sustainable community-driven participation.
