Hedgents
Institutional DeFi execution.
Without surrendering custody.
Every other DeFi automation platform holds your signing keys on their servers. Hedgents runs on your hardware — there is no Hedgents server. Your keys never leave your machines.
Unlike a single trading bot, it deploys a fleet of five specialized agents — each with one fixed role. The agent that monitors risk cannot trade. The agents that trade cannot change their own limits. Currently paper-trading at 7.57% blended APY on mainnet.
02 / The gap
Autonomous DeFi needs a custody model.
How do you let software trade your capital — without giving software your keys?
Every existing solution answers this with a promise. Hedgents answers it with an architecture — one your compliance team can verify, not just read about.

“The user is no longer an operator. They're an orchestrator.”
The CIO sets the mandate — risk caps, strategy mix, target yield. The fleet executes continuously, without requiring human sign-off on every transaction.
03 / Fleet
Five daemons. Five roles.
Each agent has exactly one role and cannot exceed it. Three manage positions and sign transactions. Two monitor and publish signals — they have no authority to move funds, by design.

04 / How it's built
Three layers of verifiable isolation.
Code, network, and protocol — verifiable properties of the deployment, not runtime trust.
Authority bound at compile time.
riskwatcher and researcher deliberately omit the wallet crate. cargo tree returns empty. A compromised binary cannot sign — the code isn't linked.
Per-instruction whitelist on all signing daemons adds a second layer.

Multi-machine P2P mesh.
Each daemon is an independent libp2p peer. Each role can run on a separate VPC. No orchestrator holds custody — the institution holds the keys.
Long-lived Ed25519 role key per daemon. Ephemeral peer-id survives host migration.
Signed envelopes, replay-protected.
Every message is a signed CBOR envelope with monotonic per-sender nonces. Verifiable at audit time — not on trust.

05 / Benchmarks
What institutions earn on-chain today.
BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and Circle all yield ~4% on Solana — and all require custody transfer.
Institutional rates: securitize.io · franklintempleton.com · circle.com/usyc — May 2026. Hedgents: rates from Kamino API, Solana RPC, and DeFiLlama (loading…). Past performance of paper trading does not guarantee live deployment returns.
05 / Architecture
Peer-to-peer mesh. No central server.
Five independent libp2p peers. Each role can run on a separate VPC. Every message is a signed CBOR envelope. No orchestrator holds custody.
