FAQ

1. What is Pallas?

Pallas is a decentralized protocol that lets you deposit crypto assets into automated quantitative trading vaults. These vaults run high-frequency and market-neutral strategies designed to generate stable, risk-adjusted yield across multiple exchanges.

2. Is Pallas custodial?

No. Pallas is fully non-custodial.

User assets are held in:

  • Audited smart contracts for deposits, withdrawals, and share accounting

  • MPC-secured wallets (via FordeFi) that enforce strategy rules

Pallas never has direct access to or control over user funds.

3. How do I start using Pallas?

You simply:

  1. Connect your Web3 wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Rabby)

  2. Select a vault

  3. Submit a deposit transaction

After that, the strategy begins deploying capital once favorable market conditions appear.

4. How long do deposits take to become active?

Deposits are confirmed as soon as the blockchain transaction is validated. However, the strategy may take some time before entering positions if current market conditions aren’t optimal. This ensures your capital is deployed only when it maximizes potential yield.

5. Is there a lock-up period?

No. You can withdraw anytime.

However, for best results we recommend staying invested for several months to allow yields to stabilize and to benefit from compounding. Short-term returns (1–2 months) can vary, while longer periods (e.g., 12 months) reflect the true performance of the strategy.

6. How long do withdrawals take?

Withdrawals follow a variable redemption period, typically between 1 hour and 3 days, depending on liquidity and market volatility. This flexibility allows the strategy to unwind positions without harming performance.

7. What chains and tokens are supported?

Availability depends on the vault. Each vault clearly displays:

  • Supported assets

  • Accepted deposit tokens

  • Fees and risk parameters

More chains and assets will be added as the platform expands.

8. Do I need to claim my yield manually?

No. All yield whether from funding, spreads, airdrops, or compounding is automatically reflected in your vault share value. You only need to claim your funds when you choose to withdraw.
