🚀 How Zap Pilot Works

🧠 The Core Mechanism​

Zap Pilot is a Sentiment-Driven Portfolio Autopilot. We use the Fear & Greed Index to automatically determine how much of your portfolio should be in Crypto (BTC/ETH) vs. Stablecoins.

Key Principles​

  • Buy Fear: When the market is scared, we increase crypto allocation.
  • Defend Greed: When the market is euphoric, we take profits into stables.
  • Non-Custodial: You sign every move. We never hold your funds.

1ī¸âƒŖ Connect & Deposit​

You connect your wallet (Metamask, etc.) and deposit funds. Instead of picking a random strategy, you are opting into our Regime-Based Model.


2ī¸âƒŖ The Regimes​

Your funds are allocated based on the 5 Market Regimes:

RegimeIndicatorStrategy
Extreme Fear🔴 FGI < 2570% Crypto / 30% Stable
Fear🟠 FGI 25-4560% Crypto / 40% Stable
Neutral🟡 FGI 46-5450% Crypto / 50% Stable
GreedđŸŸĸ FGI 55-7540% Crypto / 60% Stable
Extreme Greed🟩 FGI > 7530% Crypto / 70% Stable

3ī¸âƒŖ 📐 Kelly Allocation​

To optimize which specific protocols we use (e.g., Aave vs. Compound for stables, or Uniswap vs. Curve for LP), we use the Kelly Criterion. This ensures we maximize yield while minimizing smart contract risk.

4ī¸âƒŖ â™ģī¸ Rebalancing (User-Driven)​

When the market regime shifts (e.g., Fear → Neutral), we generate a Rebalance Proposal.

  1. Notification: You get an alert (Email/Calendar).
  2. Execution: You click "Rebalance" on the Zap Pilot dashboard.
  3. Gradual Execution: Logic splits the trade over 5-10 days to minimize slippage and timing risk.

🔒 Security & Transparency​

  • Non-Custodial: Your funds always remain in your wallet.
  • On-Chain Execution: All transactions are transparent.
  • User-Controlled: You approve every move.
