Introduction

What Cortik Alpha is to the Cortik AI community: two projects, one brain; the CTK circle; where each fee dollar goes (15 to CLS, up to 8 to affiliates, 7 to the system); where the project stands.

Two projects, one brain

Cortik AI is the protocol: CTK on Polygon, its liquidity, its treasury and its long-term health looked after by rules. Cortik Alpha is the copy-trading engine opened to the community: two bots, one per exchange, each copying a Cortik master bot into the member's own account. CTK joins the two: it is the collateral that opens copying, and half of every fee flows back to the CTK community through CLS.

The CTK circle

Lock CTK worth 10% of the capital you want to trade; it comes back through a 30-day unbond. The bots copy the master bots trade for trade, sized to your capital, for 30% of new profit above your High-Water Mark. Of every $30 fee, $15 goes to CLS, the Cortik Liquidity Stabilizer, for the CTK community. Affiliates earn a share of the fees their teams pay, so every new member locks CTK in turn.

Where each fee goes

Out of every $30 of fee on $100 of new profit: $15 to CLS, up to $8 to affiliates by rank (Neuron $3, Synapse $5, Cortex $7, Alpha $8; what no rank takes goes to the system), $7 to the Cortik Alpha system. You keep $70. A loss pays nothing, and has to be won back before any fee is due again.

Where we are now

Cortik Alpha runs in paper mode: both bots copy with play money, so everyone can try the whole journey without risk. Real money opens later, by invitation. Prediction markets and perpetual futures are risky and copies can lose money; paper results do not promise future results.
