Problem: "AI" trading vaults losing 99% of their value. Another trading vault lost $93M where nobody outside could see it. Both asked you to trust them.
Solution: INFINIT APEX MS2.
Here are 5 questions I'd ask before giving any vault a single cent of my money:
1: What does the AI actually decide?
> APEX's AI ranks stocks, commodities and crypto by relative strength. It goes long the strongest and shorts the weakest, with the book balanced in dollar terms.
> Humans are the ones that curate the playbook, the model just applies it across more markets than one single trader could ever track, without getting tired, attached, bag bias, or tilt.
2: Who can move the money?
> Deposits sit behind a 3-of-4 multisig and inside of that the manager trades through credentials that can't withdraw.
> The important bit is that the people running the strategy can't fuck with our money.
3: What stops it breaking its own rules?
> Stream Finance froze withdrawals after an external manager lost about $93M, and nobody outside could see what that manager was doing.
THAT’S WHAT INFINIT OS IS BUILT TO AVOID:
> Orders outside eligible Hyperliquid markets get blocked automatically
> Separate AI agents check trading against the published mandate
> Unresolved breaches get trading access pause
4: Can you check the record yourself?
> INFINIT only takes managers with a live track record, not just backtests.
> APEX MS1 has been trading live since July, with weekly reports on performance and exposure, and the trading wallet is public.
When you read any vault's numbers, ask:
> Is it the actual return, or annualised?
> Before fees or after?
> How deep was the worst drawdown?
5: Does the manager have skin in the game?
> Yes. The manager deposits 10% of the vault themselves. Profit and loss are shared across every depositor, manager included, so they win and lose on exactly the same terms as everyone else.
> Timing matters too. Through July, the 20 largest systematic traders were up 9.81% this year while crypto-only traders were down 10.57%.
> HIP-3 put oil, gold and the S&P on Hyperliquid, so that cross-asset playbook finally runs onchain.
Follow @Infinit_Labs for further details and to ensure the next time you go to a “vault” it’s infinit institutional grade and not a sham.
look, anytime you see anything about “vaults” please go screenshot the five questions below: 👇
the next time some fuckwit shills you one then at least you know what to look out for.
so proud to be working with this team. holy shit.
🤝 Paid partnership
APEX Multi-Strategy Vault set a new high water mark over the weekend, up 8.3%.
Oil did a lot of the work. The system flipped WTI from short to long on 14 October, has held Brent long since 1 October, and took profit on both on the way up. On the other side of the book, the crypto shorts paid as the market fell.
Long:
WTI +6.8%
Brent +6.6%
Short:
HYPE +8.4%
XRP +7.7%
SOL +6.3%
ETH +5.9%
Long oil and short crypto, both paying in the same week. That is what trading both directions across asset classes is for.
The current vault closes on 28 October, with the next APEX vaults opening for deposits the same day.

Think what @Infinit_Labs is building is largely underappreciated.
The hard truth about DeFi vaults is that industry standards are still pretty subpar.
While the goal is to abstract away the complexities of capital management for users, offering greater flexibility + composability, the underlying infrastructure often lacks sufficient transparency + safety guardrails.
In fact, many vaults remain largely black-boxed.
Here's what stands out with INFINIT's APEX vault:
🔸 Restricted manager permissions → Strategy managers can only open/close trades, w/o access to withdraw user funds.
🔸 Multisig custody → Deposits are secured through an approved 3-of-4 multisig setup.
🔸 Preconfigured trading gateway → Execution is subject to predefined parameters, eligible markets + risk limits.
🔸 Dedicated AI monitoring agents → Specialised agents monitor trading activity against the manager's mandate + risk constraints.
🔸 Systematic CTA strategy → Trades eligible Hyperliquid markets, going long stronger assets + short weaker ones while targeting dollar neutrality.
*APEX MultiStrategy is operated by Apex Quantitative Capital, an accredited team with established background in professional trading.
The value proposition here imo lies in the separation between strategy execution, custody + risk oversight.
Users get exposure to professional trading strategies w/o having to manage execution themselves, while managers retain the flexibility to deploy their expertise within predefined guardrails.
This is the direction DeFi vault infrastructure needs to move towards if institutional-scale capital is to participate meaningfully.
Abstraction shouldn't come at the expense of transparency or control, and the best vault infrastructure should enable all three.
That's where INFINIT is positioning itself particularly well imo
Yesterday the INFINIT and APEX teams sat down to a private dinner with @circle CEO @jerallaire. He spoke about digital dollars serving as a key bridge to participating in global commerce but also how Circle works hard to preserve local currency stability through its infrastructure offerings.
This infrastructure allows strategies like APEX Multi-Strategy Vault to avoid inventory risk as it trades. It trades tokenized equities, commodities and crypto from a single book, long and short, using @USDC on Hyperliquid.
As the week with the World Bank and IMF in Bangkok comes to a close, we are grateful to add to the conversation.

🤖 AI-enabled Safeguards
Each strategy has predefined limits that define markets, leverage, exposure, and drawdown criteria.
AI agents monitor every position against those limits and can block orders beyond those limits and pause trading if breaches are unfixed.
See all three layers in action in the APEX MultiStrategy Vault whose CTA momentum strategy captures asymmetric upside while staying dollar-neutral.

Thanks to @tether, @bitazzaofficial, @dtcpay_official and @sumsub for hosting, and to the Thai Digital Asset Association and the House Committee on Monetary Affairs, Finance, Financial Institutions and Financial Markets for convening the programme.
The infrastructure these frameworks are being written around already exists. APEX Multi-Strategy Vault trades tokenized equities, commodities and crypto from one book, long and short, around the clock.
