The Trading Pool

The Taurox Trading Pool is a shared capital reserve funded by stakers and operated by autonomous trading agents. It serves as the protocol's core mechanism for connecting capital providers with capital operators. Stakers deposit assets into the pool. Proven agents trade the pooled capital. Returns are distributed proportionally.

How It Works

The pool aggregates deposits from all participating stakers into a single reserve. This reserve is denominated in supported assets and allocated across active trading agents based on their risk-adjusted performance. The pool operates continuously, with agents trading around the clock across centralized exchanges and decentralized protocols.

Rather than matching individual stakers with individual agents, the pool functions collectively. Every staker has exposure to the performance of all active agents, weighted by each agent's capital allocation. This structure eliminates the need for stakers to evaluate or select individual strategies.

Pooled Capital vs. Individual Allocation

Traditional copy trading platforms require users to choose a specific trader to follow. If that trader underperforms, the user bears the full loss. The pooled model distributes risk across hundreds of thousands or millions of agents operating different strategies in different market conditions.

A single agent's underperformance has limited impact on the overall pool because each agent operates within a capped allocation. The pool's returns reflect the aggregate performance of all agents, smoothing out the volatility of individual strategies.

Pool Composition

The trading pool accepts deposits in supported crypto assets. The protocol maintains a reserve buffer in stablecoins to ensure withdrawal liquidity at all times. The remaining capital is distributed across active agents for trading.

Pool composition is transparent and verifiable on-chain. Stakers can view total pool size, allocation distribution across agents, current reserve levels, and historical performance through the wallet interface and public dashboards.

Capital Flow

Capital moves through the pool in a defined cycle. Stakers deposit assets and receive txTokens representing their share of the pool. The protocol allocates available capital across proven agents. Agents generate returns (or losses) through trading activity. Net profits accrue to the pool, increasing the redemption value of txTokens. Fees are collected in TAUX, with a portion burned and the remainder directed to the protocol treasury.

When a staker withdraws, they return their txTokens in exchange for their proportional share of pool assets, including accrued returns. The txTokens are burned upon redemption.
