General Question

Q. To be clear, what does Ladder Finance do?

A. We execute our own Quant & Option strategies by taking investments from our clients' assets and our investors. We distribute the profits we make to our investors and run our business on a fee basis.

Q. Is there a risk of loss?

A. You may lose money. This is called the maximum loss and each strategy has a different ratio.

Q. I want to know the details and risks for each strategy.

A. You can see the strategies that are being applied to subcategories of the Core Strategy in our GitBook or on Medium.

Q. Is Ladder Finance only active on zkSync or multi-chain support?

A. We will be active on the zkSync chain and the ETH chain first. We are considering adopting other chains outside of Ethereum, but not currently.

Q. Ladder Finance tokens?

A. Yes. The Ladder Token has own token. For more information, please refer to Ladder Token in the Asset category.

Q. How are my deposited assets managed?

A. Assets may be sent to Deribit to run Option strategies, and to CEX or DEX to run Quant programs. For arbitrage strategies, it can transfer between multiple exchanges. For all these processes, it can use Bridge(ex: orbiter, stargate etc...) and more.

Q. Can I withdraw my assets immediately after depositing?

A. No. Each instrument has a minimum deposit period. This is to prevent potential losses, as you are not always in profit while your strategy is running.

* Exceptions: in special cases, such as an imminent Crisis, Great Depression, bankruptcy of the exchange (ex: FTX), infinite loss of value due to huge problems of the project (ex: Luna), modification of the strategy due to governance, the strategy can be forcibly stopped with the opinion of the governance or at the own discretion of the Core DEV team. This is all for the protection of depositors.
