Five steps. No crypto background required. Works from phone or desktop.
Sign in with email, Google, or Apple. No seed phrase, no wallet setup. vorepo auto-creates an embedded Solana wallet in the background via Privy. Takes 30 seconds.
Two ways: credit card via Coinbase Onramp (fastest, 2-5 minutes), or send USDC directly from another Solana wallet (instant, no fee). Minimum deposit $5. No KYC below $100.
Browse the Markets page. Sort by 24h change, velocity, or stars. The Alpha Signals section highlights repos currently trading 2+ standard deviations above the platform mean velocity — those are your "hot right now" candidates.
On the repo page: select BUY or SELL, enter share quantity, click the action button. You get a real-time price quote (current price + fee + impact). Confirm, and the trade settles instantly against the bonding-curve reserve.
The Portfolio page shows your holdings, unrealized P/L, and equity curve. Close positions with one click — sell back to the reserve at the current market price. Withdraw USDC to your wallet any time.
A repo with 200k stars isn't automatically better than one with 5k. Look at star_velocity_24h — 100 stars/day on a 5k repo is signal, 100 stars/day on a 200k repo is noise.
By the time a repo is on HN front page, the first 20% of the move happened. Our Alpha Signals catch it earlier, but even earlier is better — watch github.com/trending language pages.
After 7 days of no release or commit activity, our composite starts penalising. Stars gained don't help if the project looks stale. Sell before the decay, not after.
5% of a small-market ticker already moves the price. 1% is typically safe. The bonding curve ensures you can always exit, but exit prices reflect your own order impact.
1% on buy + 1.5% on sell = 2.5% round trip. You need a 2.5%+ move to break even. Day-trading small moves rarely works. Plus subscribers pay 0.5%/1.0% — 1.5% break-even.
New major releases (React 20, PyTorch 3) trigger buzz spikes within hours. If you hold the ticker before the release, you often see 15-25% moves. Calendar-aware trading works here.
