Dojifunded is building the on-chain infrastructure to fund traders and autonomous strategies.
A decade ago, becoming a trader meant one thing: you needed capital.
Even the best traders faced the same problem. Skill alone was not enough, If you wanted meaningful upside, you needed meaningful size. A trader making 5% a month on a $5,000 account could get by barely, while a trader making the same return on a $500,000 account could build a career.
This gap gave rise to one of the fastest growing industries in finance: funded trading.
Funded trading firms emerged to solve a simple problem. Find talented traders, give them access to larger pools of capital, and share in the upside. Traders prove themselves through evaluations, receive funded accounts, and keep as much as 90% of the profits they generate.
What started as a niche category quietly grew into a global industry worth more than $10 billion, serving over 10 million traders worldwide. Growth accelerated after COVID as retail participation surged, remote work became normal, and trading increasingly became a legitimate career path.
But beneath this growth sat an uncomfortable truth, the industry was built on trust, not transparency.
Behind polished websites and bold payout claims sits an ecosystem that still operates like a black box. For millions of traders, some of the most important decisions remain invisible.
Why was a payout denied?
Why was an account flagged?
What actually determines whether someone passes or fails an evaluation?
Who is really taking the risk behind funded accounts?
The answers are often hidden behind internal systems, discretionary decisions, and risk models traders never get to see. In an industry worth billions, traders still rely on screenshots on X, Discord discussions, and reputation to decide which firms can be trusted.
At the same time, trading itself is changing. The next generation of traders will not only be humans manually placing trades. Trading is becoming increasingly systematic, automated, and autonomous.
Quant traders already run execution systems that operate continuously. Strategies react faster than humans and make decisions based on rules rather than emotion. AI native systems are beginning to participate in markets in ways that were not possible before.
Yet the infrastructure to fund these strategies does not exist.
Most prop firms were built for discretionary retail traders. They were never designed for automated systems, strategy vaults, or autonomous trading agents.
We started DojiFunded with a simple belief:
If trading is becoming automated, funding should become programmable.
DojiFunded is building the on chain infrastructure layer for funded trading, designed not only for human traders but also for the next generation of autonomous trading strategies.
We believe funded trading should move from opaque firms and closed systems into transparent financial infrastructure where performance, payouts, and risk are visible and verifiable on chain.
At DojiFunded, traders and strategy builders access capital through transparent, rules based infrastructure. Evaluations become verifiable, payouts become transparent, performance becomes auditable.
Capital allocation becomes programmable. Instead of relying on discretionary approvals or hidden risk systems, trading performance can be measured directly through execution data and transparent logic. More importantly, we are building for a future where autonomous strategies can receive funding natively.
A profitable quant strategy should be able to qualify for larger capital allocations automatically. AI native trading agents should be able to access funded capital programmatically. Liquidity providers should be able to allocate capital to trader and strategy performance as a measurable investment opportunity.
We are not building another prop firm. We are building the infrastructure that powers capital formation for traders and autonomous financial agents.
When we started building DojiFunded, we made an intentional decision. We would not optimise for hype, we would optimise for execution.
We chose Arbitrum because we believe serious trading infrastructure requires flexibility, deep liquidity, and strong execution.
Funded trading only works if the execution layer is reliable. Rather than rebuilding trading infrastructure from scratch, we partnered with proven execution venues like GMX and Ostium. This allows us to focus on what matters most: funding infrastructure, evaluations, treasury systems, risk management, and capital allocation while leveraging strong execution venues underneath.
Funded trading gave millions of traders access to capital. But the infrastructure underneath it remained opaque and centralised. We believe the next chapter looks different. A future where capital moves transparently, where performance is verifiable, where traders and autonomous strategies can receive funding programmatically and where a multibillion dollar black box industry becomes part of open financial infrastructure.
We are building the infrastructure to introduce funded traders to transparent, verifiable trading on Arbitrum through on chain evaluations, transparent payouts, and real execution.
That is the future DojiFunded is building.
