Introduction

Welcome to Untrading, the architecture for positive-sum decentralized finance.

Since our publication of ERC-5173, we’ve been focused on solving the fundamental flaw in DeFi: the zero-sum, fee-based game that creates a systemic conflict of interest between platforms and their users.

We have built a new, generative economic primitive. By integrating time as a foundational dimension of value—our "Transactional Value-time" model—we've created the ARC Protocol. This system replaces the speculative guesswork of APY with the mathematical certainty of Price Expectancy (PE) and enables novel value flows, such as Future Rewards (FRs).

Our protocol offers a suite of solutions designed to enhance the capital efficiency, treasury yield, and systemic resilience of our partners:

• Alpha Generation for LSTs/LRTs (The Growth Hub): We provide a "Productive Holding" vault for premier assets (WBTC, stETH, eETH, etc.). Your protocol's assets or your users' assets can be deposited to gain immediate stablecoin liquidity while retaining Future Reward (FR) claims on all future appreciation. This allows your users to earn an additional, non-correlated alpha stream on top of their existing staking or restaking yields, with zero liquidation risk.

• Treasury Management for Stablecoins (The Income Hub): We offer a superior, sustainable real-yield solution for DAO and protocol treasuries. Our zero-fee Income Hubs are funded by the real, captured appreciation from the Growth Hubs. This provides a high-performing (12-25% backtested) and predictable yield source for your treasury's stablecoin reserves.

• Systemic Resilience (The Temporal Hedge): We are the first "all-weather" protocol. Our Prosperity Reserve automatically captures a portion of system-wide profits during bull markets and distributes it to loyal, long-term participants during market downturns. This provides a unique stability mechanism that protects your assets and our shared ecosystem.

• Partnership & Alignment (The $UN Token): Our governance model is built for deep alignment. We offer strategic partnerships via our $UN token's Loyalty Multiplier system, allowing your protocol to boost rewards and share in the long-term success of the Untrading ecosystem.

Whether you are a DAO seeking a high-yield, resilient solution for your treasury, an LST/LRT protocol looking to provide your users with a powerful new source of non-correlated alpha, or an institution seeking a compliant, next-generation financial primitive, the ARC Protocol is your foundational partner.

We provide the tools, the technology, and a new economic model grounded in verifiable math and radical transparency. Let’s build the positive-sum future—together.
