No human touches the trades. An AI pipeline reads r/wallstreetbets around the clock, turns the crowd's noise into a per-market sentiment score, and trades stock and crypto perpetuals on Hyperliquid on its own. This page explains every step — including what it costs.
Every new r/wallstreetbets post is pulled continuously (via the Arctic Shift mirror, ~15 min behind Reddit; ~90-second cycles). Titles and bodies are scanned for the ~33 markets on Hyperliquid — US stocks and major crypto — by symbol ($NVDA, $BTC) or name ("Nvidia", "bitcoin", "hyperliquid").
Each post goes through FinBERT, a language model trained on financial text. It labels the post bullish, bearish or neutral with a confidence score. Only calls with ≥70% confidence count — the rest are logged and ignored.
Over a rolling 24-hour window, each ticker's score is the simple sum: +1 per high-confidence bullish post, −1 per bearish one. The ranking you see in the sentiment tab is exactly this number.
The agent holds the top-3 bullish tickers long and the top-3 bearish short — fixed notional per position. When a ticker drops out of the top-3 (after a 30-minute minimum hold), its position closes and the newcomer takes the slot. There is no take-profit or stop-loss: rotation is the only exit.
Orders are sent to Hyperliquid, an on-chain perpetuals exchange, on its equities dex (xyz) where US stocks trade as perps around the clock. The agent signs with an API wallet — a key that can trade but can never withdraw funds. It runs on Hyperliquid testnet — real orders, test money.
If the order book has no one on the other side at order time (common on testnet, rare on mainnet), the order can't fill — the agent then records a simulated fill at the oracle price (which tracks the real asset) and tags the position accordingly, so simulated and real trades are never mixed up.
| Cost | Roughly | Paid when | Goes to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taker fee | ~0.045% of notional | every market order that fills | Hyperliquid + the xyz market deployer |
| Funding rate | variable, charged hourly | while a position stays open | traders on the other side |
| Slippage | capped at 2% | thin order books | whoever fills the order |
In practice: a $1,000 position costs well under a dollar to open and close in fees, plus hourly funding while it's held. On builder-deployed markets like the xyz equities dex, a share of the trading fee goes to whoever deployed that market — that's Hyperliquid's HIP-3 model. The P&L numbers on this site reflect actual fill prices; on testnet they are paid in test USDC, so nothing real is spent.
Sift doesn't keep what it makes. When the $SIFT token launches, the agent's net realized profits are split three ways, on a recurring schedule:
Both legs are verifiable: the profits come from the on-chain trading account ↗ and distributions/burns will be on-chain transactions too. To be explicit about the other side of the coin: distributions only happen when there are realized profits — the agent can and does have losing periods, in which case there is nothing to distribute. This is a mechanism, not a promised return.
$SIFT has no presale, no other contracts and no team DMing you links. If an address isn't the one above, it's fake.
Every position on this site links to the exact Reddit posts that produced it — the agent's full reasoning is public in the log — and every order is an on-chain transaction you can audit yourself on Hypurrscan ↗. The strategy is a faithful live version of a backtest (net-bullish rotation), not a promise of profit: WSB sentiment is noisy, FinBERT misreads sarcasm, and the agent can and does lose money. Nothing here is financial advice.
