Hi @olawastevens. There are a number of ways we fund this. Firstly you need to look at the bigger picture. Darwinex is all about allowing traders to attract REAL investor capital (DarwinIA is merely a helping stepping stone on the way to that bigger goal). So once traders get to the point where they are attracting investor capital, because those investors are investing real money, it is them that pay traders a performance fee, but Darwinex also takes a lesser amount of the performance fee (5%) for providing the service. This gives us capital to then provide to traders who are earlier on in their journey via DarwinIA. Furthermore, Darwinex also earns revenue from Darwinex Zero subscriptions, and again this allows us to pay some of that back to traders in DarwinIA. Hope that helps :)
If the seed capital allocation is not real money, where do you now get the money you pay me as 15% performance fee
