FAQ

Concise answers to the most common questions about horakl.

Does horakl invest my money?

No. A horakl portfolio is a model/research portfolio. horakl tracks allocations and computes performance; it does not take custody of funds or invest the portfolio’s notional capital in the underlying assets.

Do I need a wallet?

You can explore and preview portfolios without a wallet. You need a supported EVM wallet to create a portfolio, purchase access or follow managers.

Which networks are supported?

Ethereum, Arbitrum, BNB Smart Chain, Base and Polygon PoS.

Why do I need gas?

Paid actions (creating a portfolio or purchasing access) are on-chain transactions. Gas pays the network to process them, in the native token of the selected network.

What token is used for payments?

USDT on the network you select. Gas is paid in the native gas token of that network.

How much does creating a portfolio cost?

A one-time fee of 1.00 USDT, paid to the horakl Treasury, plus network gas.

How does a manager earn from paid access?

When a user purchases access to a manager’s portfolio, the current Router flow sends 90% to the manager and 10% to the horakl Treasury. The buyer pays gas.

What does “vs BTC” mean?

It compares a portfolio’s return to Bitcoin’s return over the same period, as a relative return. Confirm the exact period shown on the portfolio card or detail view.

Can a manager delete a portfolio?

A manager can inactivate a portfolio to hide it and stop new payments, but history is preserved. Inactivation is not deletion.

What happens when a portfolio is inactivated?

It becomes hidden from new users and stops accepting new payments. Existing history and access for already-entitled wallets are handled according to the current implementation.

What is the horakl Score?

A 0–100 reputation metric combining ROI, Sharpe Ratio, Max Drawdown, Consistency and Discipline. It is not investment advice.

Is a higher Score a guarantee of future performance?

No. The Score measures past combined performance and behavior. It does not predict or guarantee future results.

Why can blockchain payments take time to confirm?

Confirmation depends on the network and current conditions. horakl verifies the payment on-chain before unlocking access or completing creation.
