The dHEDGE DAO currently plans to invest up to 500,000 sUSD in pools managed on dHEDGE. This is an open call for managers to apply to the DAO for an investment. Each pool can receive between 10,000 and 100,000 sUSD in investment from the DAO. Funds might be deployed over time and not all at once.

Each interested manager should submit a request for investment to the DAO by filling in this form: http://bit.ly/dHEDGEDAO or by sending an email to team@dhedge.org outlining the following items:

  • Description of the Manager’s investment strategy (i.e. fundamental, technical, discretionary, bot trading, long only, long/short, asset class)
  • Risk management
  • Previous track record (eg. from managing funds on another platform)
  • Initial investment amount by the Manager in its own pool
  • Strategy to build following on dHEDGE (for example through social media promotions etc)
  • Performance fee that will be charged

Initial selection of managers will be done by these community members:

Daniel Bar, Founder @ Bitfwd (比特未来 — 区块链创投)

Yama Zhang, VP of Partnerships, Three Arrows Capital, Founder @ Crypto Tonight

Josh Green, Managing Partner, Orthogonal Trading

Sharlyn Wu, Head of Huobi DeFi Labs, Huobi Group

Jordan Momtazi, Operations, Synthetix

Daryl Lau, Partner, Mechanism Capital

Ruby Wu, Initiator of DAOStep, Incuba Alpha DAO

Final investment decisions will be made through community votes using DHT tokens. Note that short-listed submissions will be made public at the time of the community vote.

The DAO pool funds will be excluded from the upcoming Performance Mining program.

Once native DHT Staking is live, DHT token holders will control the pools held in the DAO Staking Pool. Pools are accumulated in the DAO Staking Pool through a 10% admin fee imposed on Manager’s fees as well as through direct DAO investment programs like this.

Upcoming Performance Mining

In the upcoming performance mining program, investors will be rewarded with DHT locked for 1 year. Investors can earn rewards when investing in pools with a Ranking. For Pools to have a Ranking they’ll need a positive performance and a minimum time since inception. It is therefore essential for managers wanting to be able to gain funds from the start of the Performance Mining program, to start building a track record now. Performance Mining is a dHEDGE innovation and will incentivise growth of the best performing pools.
