Make your investment track record credible.
vBase makes track records cryptographically verifiable.
vBase track records are trustworthy because they can’t be tampered with or cherry-picked.
Easy-to-share dashboards with professional charts and analytics.
vBase-stamped results attract capital allocators who understand the value of credible performance.
Save yourself tens of thousands by replacing commercial indices or audits with vBase digital stamping technology.
Build your record through changes in brokers and departure of SMA clients.
vBase is built on open technology so even if it disappears, you can continue to build and validate your performance.
Credibly showcase performance of sub-strategies so you can market your strengths.
"This is an incredible value, and significantly improves how we share our track record to potential investors. "
vBase allows you to create a tamper-proof index by cryptographically stamping a set of portfolio weights to a blockchain at regular intervals. By repeating this process, you construct an index of your portfolio, with transparently verifiable performance.
The process is akin to building a financial index via Bloomberg or S&P, but cheaper, more transparent, and more robust.
vBase helps you create cryptographic fingerprints of your portfolio, and then publishes this fingerprint information to a blockchain. Because blockchains are append-only ledgers with transparent time-stamping, this fingerprint information is tamper-proof. We then use these fingerprints to generate verifiable performance analytics and dashboards.
Check out our docs to learn more about how our technology works.
Brokerage statements fail to create usefully verifiable performance for a number of reasons:
1) They only show performance for a single account. There’s no good way for an allocator to see if there are accounts you’re not showing.
2) Brokerage statements take a long time to interpret and validate, most allocators won’t bother.
3) Calculating meaningful analytics or sharing reliable dashboards from brokerage statements is borderline impossible. Statements also don’t interoperate well with any systems allocators may be using.
4) Your brokerage account may not give you access to the instruments you want to trade. vBase works with any assets for which there is a publicly available price.
5) If your portfolio is sub-scale, your brokerage performance will be under-reported due to unrepresentative rebalancing costs and trading fees.
If you can generate portfolio weights, we take care of the rest. Here’s an example of the type of portfolio weights that you need to create to generate a track record:
TSLA 0.5
MSFT 0.25
BTCUSD 0.25
By calculating portfolio fingerprints locally and sending them to vBase, no-one except you (not even vBase), sees your portfolio.
To generate a shareable report link, you share your portfolio history with vBase. Once this report link is generated, you can share it with others at your discretion.
If this concerns you and you’d like to deploy the report module locally, please contact us, and we’ll show you how to do it.
vBase strategies are constructed via immutable cryptographic commitments. Time travel is impossible. However, one could still consider an abuse via which 100 strategies are stamped and only the best one is shown:
We prevent this by
This depends somewhat on how often you trade. For most strategies, daily stamps are adequate. Our free plan offers 100 stamps per month, meaning that 3 daily strategies can be stamped free of charge. See our pricing page for more details.
