Every strategy, in one place. Results only when they are real.
The strategies Boostio runs in public, and the new ideas it is testing. Each test is written down before it runs: the rule, what it is compared with and the bar it has to clear. This is where every one of them stands today, including the ones that are blocked or have nothing to show yet.
Is the research learning? The honest state.
A research book weights ten research engines by their measured record and buys the top-ranked coins; a frozen twin keeps the starting weights, so the gap between the two measures the learning and nothing else. Paper money only.
- YesCollecting evidence
Both books recorded on 26 days; 628 matured outcomes across 10 research engines. 5 of 10 have enough to be judged (each needs 20 over 5 data days); closest: FinRL, 8.
- YesChanged behaviour
The learning rule changed the engine weights 3 times, last on 2026-11-11. The learned book now picks differently from its frozen twin.
- Not shownProven improvement
Not shown. That needs the learned book ahead of its frozen twin with a 95% interval above zero at the decision read on 2027-04-16; the interim read on 2027-01-15 is a report, not a verdict.
Learned book against its frozen twin
Recorded Oct 16, 2026 to Nov 10, 2026 (26 days). Both books started with $10,000 of paper money and trade alike: fills at the live price when a decision is made, a modelled cost of 0.08% to 0.55% per side (higher for thinly traded coins), at most 5 positions of up to 20% each, each closed after 7 days or a 15% loss.
Weights v3, 3 changes. Each engine needs 20 matured outcomes over 5 data days before the rule may move its weight:

Risk and market context
Same fills, costs and exits as the frozen twin; only the split between coins differs. It counts as helping only if its largest drawdown is at least a fifth shallower than the control's and the interval of the daily return difference is not entirely below zero. First read Jan 15, 2027.
Wave's paper account holds no BTC or ETH now: its decision policy keeps each only while it closes above its 200-day average.

The Kalshi tests copy other traders on Kalshi, as separate research. Following Boostio's own trades needs none of them.

Following Boostio's own trades
Not a test, and nothing above is needed for it. Every buy and sell of Boostio's paper books is published with its entry, exit rule and result: Wave for crypto and Stock Trade Twins for stocks. Members follow them in their desk, where a plan sizes any open house trade to their own account; any real trade is theirs to place, elsewhere. Boostio never connects to a broker or places orders, and a later copy is a different trade, at a different price.

One pilot, three ways to copy leaderboard traders.
Kalshi copy: simple
Needs trader dataCopy every move of every rostered trader.
Kalshi's market data works for Boostio's own paper testing (checked 2026-11-11): the paper fills can be priced from live quotes, fee terms and settlements. The copy books still have nothing to copy: named traders' entries and exits are shown only on Kalshi's website and app, whose terms do not allow scripted collection, and the API carries none.- Traders observed

Four rules every test follows
Write it down first
The rule, the comparison and the bar it must clear are fixed before the first run, with a date. A changed rule is a new test, never an edit.
Screen it on history
Where history can say something, a historical replay can reject a rule. Passing it proves nothing: the past was known when the rule was written.
Record it forward
Paper books run on live prices with modelled costs, next to a control. Early numbers are a running record, not a result.
Read it on the date
Verdicts come at the dates set in advance, and only when an interval clears zero. Blocked or empty tests say so.
Blocked means a test cannot start until something outside it changes, such as access to data. Waiting means it is ready but has nothing new to measure. Neither ever shows an estimated or simulated result.
