Sound familiar?

"Should I buy now, or is it about to dump?" "Why didn't I sell at the top?" "What's a stop loss supposed to be, exactly?" "I don't have time to watch charts all day."

That's not a you-problem. That's what crypto feels like without a system. Glasshouse replaces the guessing with a tested process: every trade planned before it's placed, every risk capped before it's taken, everything published so you can verify it — while your money stays in your own account.

😌 Calm

Nothing to babysit. The system watches the market so you don't have to — no 3am charts, no portfolio anxiety on holiday.

🎯 Discipline

Entries, exits, stops and sizing are decided in advance by tested rules — never in panic, never on a hunch.

🔍 Clarity

You can audit everything: what the desk runs, how it's tested, and what happened — wins and losses alike.

How it works

You stay in control of your money — and get out of the decision-making business. Copy trading in your own exchange account: not a fund, not a deposit.

1

You keep custody

Your capital stays in your own Binance account. Glasshouse never holds, moves, or has withdrawal access to your funds. You can stop or withdraw any time. (Hyperliquid vault coming soon.)

2

The desk trades

An AI-native systematic book, with a discretionary macro overlay on top, mirrors into your account automatically through the venue's native copy feature.

3

Glasshouse earns only on profit

A share of the profits the desk makes you, on a high-water mark — so it only earns on new gains. No profit, no fee. The majority is always yours.

Two ways to grow — your choice

Pick the asset you're comfortable holding. Same desk, same risk controls — you just choose your base.

Stable · USDT

Grow your USDT

Keep your base in USDT — a dollar-pegged stablecoin — so your principal isn't riding Bitcoin's price swings. The desk trades to grow your dollar balance. The steadier path, for people who'd rather think in dollars.

It's still active trading and crypto carries risk — you can lose — but your base isn't exposed to BTC's volatility.

Conviction · BTC

Grow your BTC

Keep your base in Bitcoin — held as real coins in your own account — and aim to accumulate more of it through the cycle. For investors who believe in BTC long-term and are comfortable holding through its swings.

BTC's price moves sharply — this path suits a multi-year, hold-through-the-cycle mindset.

The edge

Two engines, one rule most desks won't sign up to: everything is auditable.

AI-native systematic book

The core book is rules-driven and machine-executed — signals, sizing, and risk handled by a live trading system, not gut feel or screen-watching.

Discretionary macro overlay

On top of the systematic book, the desk takes deliberate macro positions when conviction is high — the human-judgement layer the machine doesn't replace.

Radical transparency

On Hyperliquid every position, order and PnL is on-chain and public. We publish the methodology — and the losses. No cherry-picking.

Risk-first by design

Hard per-trade caps, drawdown halts, and a fixed kill-switch are built into the system before any trade is placed. Capital preservation comes first.

How Glasshouse protects your capital

Capital preservation and low drawdown come before returns — the protections are built into the system, not promised after the fact.

Your custody, always

Funds never leave your own Binance account. Glasshouse can place and close trades, but can never withdraw your money — the biggest risk in this space is simply removed.

A stop on every trade

Each position carries a pre-set, exchange-native stop-loss. Losers are cut automatically at a defined level — no hoping, no averaging down into a hole.

Capped risk per trade

Every trade risks only a small, fixed slice of capital. One bad call can't blow up the account.

Drawdown halt & kill-switch

If losses reach a set threshold, the system halts trading automatically — a circuit-breaker that stops a bad streak becoming a disaster.

Spot-first core

The cycle book is built primarily on spot positions, which can't be liquidated, with only a small, tightly-managed leveraged sleeve. The core can't be wiped out by a single wick.

Cut what stops working

Every strategy ships with pre-committed kill criteria. When one stops earning its place it's retired — and logged in the public failure log.

Protections reduce risk; they don't remove it. Crypto trading can still lose money — see the full risk disclosure below.

Built in the open

The name is the promise. A private copy offer from an unknown service should make you suspicious — so nothing here is hidden.

The track record is being built live — and you can watch it happen.

No back-tested fantasy numbers are presented here as if they were real. Hyperliquid trades are verifiable on-chain; Binance activity is logged trade-by-trade. When you copy the desk, you see exactly what the desk sees — wins and losses, in real time. If a strategy is sitting out a market regime, we say so. See the full strategy book & track record →

Why this exists

Where trading is going — and why it has to be built in the open.

Trading is being handed to machines. The sharpest signals, the fastest execution, the tightest risk control — less and less of it is human. But almost all of it still happens inside black boxes: you wire money to a fund or a bot, and simply hope.

Glasshouse is built on a different bet — that the winning model isn't just AI-run, it's AI-run in the open. Machines do what they're best at. The desk stays accountable. Every trade is auditable. And Glasshouse earns only when you do. That's what the next decade of trading should look like — so we're building it that way now.

What Glasshouse is

Glasshouse is a research-driven trading desk for digital assets. We build systematic strategies with machine-run research: every candidate is backtested on up to 12 years of market data, forward-tested on paper, and promoted to live capital only after passing pre-committed gates. A live execution engine enforces hard risk limits on every position — stops, exposure caps, drawdown halts.

What makes the desk unusual is the publishing rule: the full book — backtests, live results, and the strategies we killed — is public.

And this is deliberately not an anonymous service: when you talk to us, you deal directly with the principal who runs the desk, from the first conversation.

What to expect

No targets, no promises — just the honest mechanics, a calculator you control, how to size your capital, and how the timing works.

The honest mechanics

Copy trading typically captures only 60–80% of a strategy's net result after slippage and lag, and a drawdown hits followers harder than the desk. Across the industry, most retail copiers lose money. There is no version of this without real risk.

Why we don't quote a target

The live track record is early and currently net-negative — so any "expected return" would be fiction, and fiction is what this desk refuses to sell. Judge Glasshouse on the live record, not on a projection.

Illustrative calculator

You choose the assumption — this is a maths tool, not a forecast. It shows the fee and the downside too.

ScenarioYear 1Year 2Year 3
If it gains +20%/yr (your share, after the maximum 30% fee)
If it has a poor run (−10%/yr — risk controls limit drawdowns)
Illustrative only — the upside is an assumption you chose, not a prediction or guarantee. The "poor run" line shows a realistic adverse stretch (−10%/yr); the desk's risk controls — a stop on every trade, a spot-first core and drawdown limits — are built to keep losses contained, but crypto can move sharply and you can lose money. Simplified annual compounding; the performance fee (10–30% depending on your plan) applies to gains only, on a high-water mark — this tool uses the 30% maximum, so it understates your share at lower fee tiers.

How much should you deploy?

Frame it as risk, not reward.

Only risk capital

Money you could lose entirely without it changing your life. Never rent, savings you'll need soon, or borrowed funds.

Start small

A sensible starting allocation is roughly 1–5% of your investable portfolio. Enough to be real, small enough that an early drawdown doesn't hurt.

Scale on evidence

Add more only as the live track record proves itself over time — not on a good month or a backtest.

Timing & horizon

This desk is built around the market cycle, not the next week.

Built for the full cycle

The core strategy is multi-year by design — primarily spot accumulation, with a smaller actively-traded sleeve. It suits investors who can stay committed for roughly 30–48 months; the thesis needs time, and short-term exits work against it.

An optional cycle lock-up

On the futures book you can opt into an agreed lock-up aligned to the cycle — enforced by Binance, not by us, with your funds never leaving your own account. It's there to help committed capital stay the course; the spot book stays flexible.

Entries happen in windows

Positions are built during specific entry periods, not at random — so timing matters. Contact Glasshouse for the current entry period and to be set up before it opens.

How to get started

Glasshouse is a managed, invite-only desk — we're onboarding a limited founding cohort, every investor is set up individually, and you keep custody the whole way through.

1

Get in touch

Talk to Us below and tell us roughly the capital you'd like to deploy. We'll come back to you with the current entry window.

2

We set up & manage your account

We connect your account and set it up for your plan and the current cycle — and walk you through every step personally.

3

You join & fund your own account

Accept the invitations and fund your own Binance copy wallets. The money stays in your account — Glasshouse can place and close trades, but can never withdraw it.

4

We deploy & manage from the desk

We allocate across the spot and futures books and manage the positions through the cycle — nothing for you to watch day to day.

5

You only pay on profit

A performance fee of 10–30% of profits, depending on your plan — charged only on gains, on a high-water mark. Never a fee on losses.

Common questions

The things people ask before they copy.

Who holds my money?

You do. Your funds stay in your own Binance account at all times — Glasshouse never holds them and can never withdraw them. You can stop copying or withdraw whenever you like.

What does it cost?

A performance fee of between 10% and 30% of profits, depending on your plan — charged only on gains, on a high-water mark, settled by the exchange. No profit, no fee — Glasshouse never charges on losses, and the rest of the profit is yours.

How much do I need to start?

The managed offering starts from 50,000 USDT, held in your own account throughout. We discuss the right size for you in the first conversation.

Which exchange can I use?

Binance today — Spot and Futures copy. A non-custodial Hyperliquid vault is coming soon.

What returns can I expect?

No guarantees, and we won't pretend otherwise. The live track record is early and published openly — see the full strategy book, including the strategies that are losing or were killed. Crypto trading can and does lose money.

Do I have to do anything day to day?

No. Once copy is set up, trades mirror automatically. There's nothing to watch.

Is this a fund? Am I depositing with you?

Neither. It's copy trading in your own exchange account — you keep full custody and control. Glasshouse is a signal you choose to mirror, not a fund or a deposit.

What are the risks?

Real ones. Trading crypto with leverage carries a high risk of loss, strategies can underperform or sit out the market for stretches, and you can lose some or all of your capital. Only use money you can afford to risk.

Important — please read. Glasshouse provides a copy-trading signal that you choose to mirror in your own exchange account. It is not a fund, a managed account, or an investment scheme, and your capital is never deposited with, held by, or withdrawable by Glasshouse. You retain full custody and control of your funds at all times and may stop copying or withdraw at any moment, subject to your venue's own rules.

Trading crypto assets with leverage carries a high risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. You can lose some or all of your capital. Nothing on this page is financial, investment, legal, or tax advice, or a solicitation to buy or sell any asset. Any performance figures, when shown, are clearly labelled and past or hypothetical performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The desk's strategies can underperform or sit out certain market conditions. You are solely responsible for your own decisions; consider taking independent advice.
