Wallet Authentication

QuantsEdge uses non-custodial wallet authentication: the most secure way to access trading platforms. Unlike competitors who hold your funds, we never have access to your private keys.

Why Non-Custodial Matters

Your Keys, Your Control

  • Zero Custody Risk: We never hold your private keys or funds

  • No Centralized Storage: Your wallet stays in your control

  • Instant Withdrawals: No waiting periods or withdrawal limits

  • Regulatory Independence: Your assets aren't subject to platform restrictions

Enterprise-Grade Security

  • Hardware Wallet Support: Ledger, Trezor, and other hardware wallets

  • Multi-Signature Ready: Support for smart contract wallets

  • Bank-Level Encryption: All communications use military-grade encryption

  • Audit Trail: Every action is cryptographically verifiable

Advanced Wallet Architecture

Turnkey Embedded Wallets

QuantsEdge uses Turnkey's institutional-grade wallet infrastructure to provide enterprise security:

  • Hardware Security Module (HSM): Private keys stored in certified hardware

  • Multi-Party Computation: Keys split across multiple secure locations

  • Audit Logging: Every transaction cryptographically signed and logged

  • Compliance Ready: SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 certified infrastructure

Hyperliquid Agent Wallets

For Hyperliquid trading, we create dedicated agent wallets:

  • Isolated Trading: Separate wallets for each trading strategy

  • Risk Management: Individual position limits per agent wallet

  • Automated Execution: Direct integration with Hyperliquid's order book

  • Real-time Monitoring: Live PnL tracking across all agent wallets

Each trading strategy gets its own agent wallet on Hyperliquid:

  • Risk Containment: Individual position limits per agent

  • Automated Funding: Smart contract-based capital allocation

  • Performance Tracking: Real-time PnL per agent wallet
