Security & Technology
The ultimate goal is a community-operated fully permissionless investment infrastructure-as a-protocol with a truly circular economy, real-world utility and APY. Autonomous & unstoppable is the vision. We also recognise that Web3 infrastructure is still immature and that to deliver a ground-breaking customer experience we would need to seamlessly fuse the best-of-breed of both Web2 and Web3 into a hybrid.
Network Choice
WLTH is built on Base, an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) from those smart folks at Coinbase. We initially developed on Ethereum due to the relative ease of development and support via infrastructure and third party tooling. Other L1s and L2s were reviewed, and even prototyped on Arbitrum, ZkSync Era, before ultimately choosing Base for our shared values of usability, security, cost and support.

Current & Future Innovations
Innovation is in WLTH's ‘blood’.
In addition to the innovations already implemented in the protocol, from Fractional FundNFTs to tokenising carry; from staking to reduce fees and real-world APY to a premium user-first, mobile-first UX & delivered via a Progressive Web App, there is much, much more to show.
Use of Artificial Intelligence
AI every day in a general way through the use of various consumer-facing services used in design, marketing, development, analytics, etc.
There are plans to expand our use of AI tools and frameworks over the coming months, most notably in the following areas:
Sentiment analysis.
Community moderation.
Anti-cheat and anti-collusion systems.
Rewards and task coordination and verification.
Lastly, the core contributors are investigating use of custom Large Language Models (LLMs) in a number of scenarios, including:
LLM for technical support & guidance.
Security and anti-fraud.
LLM-powered chatbot experts on the funds and each of the portfolio projects.
LLM-powered due diligence agents per project for ongoing monitoring of invested projects.
The core contributors expect this to be a significant area of interest over the coming months.
User Experience
Newly emerging standards for wallet interoperability and Account Abstraction open up rich possibilities for greater security and significant ease. Project participants plan on upgrading wallet compatibility to implement EIP-6963 which should put an end to the browser-extension wallet wars!
Also on the roadmap but not yet scheduled is our implementation of Account Abstraction which will bring a slew of new functionality as well as significant ease of use and greater security on EVM-compatible networks. This could potentially be a game-changer bringing new users unparalleled ease-of-use.
Composable Investment Infrastructure-as-a-protocol
While the ultimate vision is a fully autonomous, community-operated investment protocol with a circular economy, achieving a great user experience required a hybrid Web2/Web3 approach. The result is a clean and simple retail-focused app.
The components we've built can be extended for new use cases, which will expand the protocol's reach and return value to $WLTH holders.
Region-specific DAOs to remain compliant in a given jurisdiction.
Funds-as-a-service.
Short-term funds.
Algorithmic trading funds.
Custom, self-managed funds.
TradFi tokenisation of real-word assets (RWA)
We are exploring spinning off key technologies such as our NFT marketplace, Rewards system, and DAS operating system (DAOS) as independent, potentially open-source offerings. We have already received interest and are in early discussions with partners.
