Perpetuals.com Launches AI Trading Platform Sharing 50% of Profits

3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · May 20

Perpetuals.com has rolled out an AI trading platform that converts users’ paper trades into signals for real-money investing, marking a shift from AI experimentation to live execution in trading.
Users submit risk-free mock trades, and the model ranks which predictions merit action before the company deploys its own capital behind selected strategies.
The product, called UpsideOnly, lets successful signal creators keep 50% of the profits generated from those trades while avoiding direct capital risk themselves.
Founded by a former FTX executive, the company’s launch fits a broader push to turn AI from market hype into operating infrastructure across finance and other industries.

How does the platform’s AI distinguish skilled predictions from random luck, ensuring its own profitability and fairness in the 50% profit share?

Does removing financial risk for traders actually improve prediction quality, or does it just encourage more reckless, low-effort market guesses?
