Grvt is launching a platform that expands access to trading strategies once reserved for a small number of elite investors.
Thanks to recent regulatory shifts, DeFi and traditional finance are increasingly converging. On Tuesday, Grvt launched Grvt Strategies, a peer-to-peer on-chain investment platform. According to the firm, the platform aims to open up sophisticated investment strategies to a broader range of investors while leveraging the transparency and efficiency of blockchain technology.
“We believe growing your wealth should feel as natural as sending a message or booking a ride,” said Hong Yea, Co-Founder and CEO of Grvt. “Grvt Strategies is our bold step toward a future where anyone can access investment opportunities that were once reserved for institutions and the elites.”
Grvt Strategies will offer options such as bot trading, thematic portfolios, volatility investing, and short-term trading. The firm states that these strategies will be curated by institutional funds, market makers, and successful traders.
These contributors include Ampersan, a digital asset liquidity provider with $400 billion in volume since inception. Regulated AI startup b-cube.ai will power the platform’s trading bots, enabling retail users to access algorithmic strategies.
“b-cube.ai was founded with the mission to democratize access to sophisticated algorithmic trading strategies traditionally reserved for hedge funds,” said Guruprasad Venkatesha, CEO of b-cube.ai. “The introduction of Grvt Strategies is exactly the vehicle we’ve been waiting for,” he added.
Most potential traders lack access to markets
The platform will also offer the transparency typically associated with DeFi protocols. Smart contracts powering these strategies will be public and auditable. Users will retain custody of their funds, eliminating the need to rely on third-party custodians.
Currently, a significant part of the global population lacks access to capital markets. According to the World Economic Forum, individual investors like education, access, and trust, which effectively limits these markets to wealthy individuals and institutions.
