At a time when crypto trading is full of volatility and uncertainty, Websea's innovative model of guaranteed principal copying is gradually becoming the key to breaking the deadlock in the trading world. Since the Websea platform launched this mechanism, the market has responded strongly and users have been discussing it, with trust and curiosity, as well as doubts and exploration. Is guaranteed principal copying a gimmick under marketing packaging, or a subversion of trading concepts? How does it work? What kind of design concept and technical support does the Websea platform behind guaranteed principal copying hide? With these questions, let us enter the real world of Websea's guaranteed principal copying.
Who is Websea?
Websea was born in August 2023 and has been running stably for nearly two years. It is a young platform focusing on Web3 trading experience. Starting from product experience and user education, Websea attempts to build a trading ecosystem that "everyone can use and understand". In March 2025, Websea launched the "capital protection copy trading" mechanism, which quickly sparked heated discussions in the community and became a key node for it to break out to a wider user group.
Design logic of the capital-guaranteed copy trading mechanism
Most exchanges' copy trading products only provide tools for "copying strategies", and users bear all profits and losses by themselves. Once users make a wrong choice or encounter drastic market fluctuations, they often face the risk of liquidation. Websea has made a major upgrade on this basis and introduced an innovative mechanism of "capital protection and compensation". The core is that if the loss is caused by the operation of the order taker, the margin of the order taker will be used to compensate . This fundamentally reduces the entry risk of ordinary users and truly realizes "safe trading experience and more controllable results".
How does a lead clerk make a profit?
Websea platform incentivizes order-carrying agents by setting up a profit-sharing mechanism. The platform has a default profit-sharing ratio. On the premise that users achieve profits, order-carrying agents can obtain a portion of their profits as a reward. Capital-guaranteed order-carrying agents can set a higher profit-sharing ratio (more than 50%) than ordinary order-carrying agents. For example: after the subscription period ends, the user makes a profit of 200 USDT. Assuming the profit-sharing ratio is 50%, the order-carrying agent will receive 100 USDT as a profit, and the remaining 100 USDT will belong to the user. Order-carrying agents can only obtain income by "helping users make profits", and the incentive mechanism is clear and transparent.
How to calculate user benefits?
The "pending profit sharing" in the principal-guaranteed copy trading product helps users intuitively understand the actual profit situation of the subscription period. Take the example of a user who invests 1,000 USDT to participate in a 7-day principal-guaranteed copy trading. If the total assets at the end of the period reach 1,500 USDT, and the profit sharing ratio is set to 50%, the pending profit sharing = PNL × profit sharing ratio, where PNL is calculated according to the following formula: PNL = project equity at the end of the period - project equity at the beginning of the period - net amount transferred during the period, the equity at the beginning of the period is 1,000 USDT, the net amount transferred during the period is 0, and the equity at the end of the period is 1,500 USDT, then the user's net income is 250 USDT (500 USDT × 50%). The final user's income is: 1,000+250 =1,250USDT.
How is the principal protection payout calculated?
Principal protection compensation amount = equity at the beginning of the period - equity at the end of the period + transfers during the period - handling fees incurred.
Websea Capital Guarantee Copy VS Ordinary Copy
Compared with ordinary copy trading, Websea's principal-guaranteed copy trading has achieved the evolution of "reducing risks, improving transparency, and ensuring returns" in multiple core dimensions. The specific comparison is as follows:
Why did Websea launch principal-guaranteed documentary trading?
In the process of serving over 1 million global users, Websea not only saw the trading enthusiasm, but also felt more deeply the "trading anxiety" of ordinary users when facing a highly volatile market. In the communication and feedback of the user community, "too difficult, too fast, too afraid of losing" became high-frequency keywords. A truly good trading product should allow ordinary people to participate and make money.
This is exactly the original intention of Websea to launch "Capital Guarantee Follow Trading" - not to create a "short-term luck-based" speculative tool, but to truly provide ordinary users with a "low threshold, high fault tolerance" robust strategy entry through an intelligent risk control system + margin compensation mechanism for order takers. It opens a door to digital wealth for ordinary users, even those who have never been exposed to crypto assets before.
The principal protection mechanism not only ensures that users and order-carrying personnel get due returns through professional strategies, but also allows ordinary users to experience the "transparent information and reasonable rules" trading experience throughout the entire process. There is no need to be proficient in K-line charts or watch the market and follow orders. People who are suitable for principal protection and order-carrying include:
1. Risk-averse users: They do not seek huge profits, but hope for steady appreciation of their assets.
2. Office workers/investors who don’t have time to watch the market but want to catch the trend.
3. Users who want to “learn instead of practice” in real trading: follow the experts and learn while earning.
The capital-guaranteed copy trading community effect: a market education experiment?
On May 28, in the AMA held by Websea on "What are the tricks of capital-guaranteed copy trading", a group of well-known KOLs in the industry, Websea's Chief Q&A Officer Xiao Baye, and Capital-guaranteed copy trader Alex, combined the three-party perspectives of the copy trader, the platform and real users, and deeply analyzed the operating logic of "capital-guaranteed copy trading", enhancing the verifiability of the mechanism. In response to the questions and concerns of KOLs and users, Websea's Chief Q&A Officer Xiao Baye and Capital-guaranteed copy trader Alex gave detailed replies and answers. "Capital-guaranteed copy trading" adopts a real-time synchronization mechanism. All transactions are operated by the copy trader in real time, and user funds are synchronously opened in proportion. It supports two-way transactions and completely replicates the operation of the copy trader. The platform institutionally prevents the copy trader from obtaining user subscription fees through "simulated hedging" and "fake trading induction" without opening orders. Regarding the "whether the return is promised" that users are concerned about, the platform emphasizes that "capital-guaranteed ≠ guaranteed return". Websea will not promise a fixed return, but promises that the principal will not be lost, the operation is transparent, and it will continue to improve the risk control model and contract matching mechanism.
Despite the controversy, Websea's principal-guaranteed copy trading mechanism has indeed triggered a change in the "perception of participation threshold" at the user level. In the Web3 world, all "guarantees" must be proven by on-chain assets and real performance. This step taken by Websea is bold and risky. For the entire industry, principal-guaranteed copy trading has triggered a collective reflection on risk design, platform responsibility and user education.
In addition, the platform has also continuously launched "capital preservation teaching", "strategy review", "risk control transparency" and other content in community education, intending to lower the threshold for users to understand complex financial models. In a sense, the greatest value of Websea's capital preservation mechanism may not be to completely subvert the existing trading logic, but to reshape the user education path: to make trading no longer "relying on luck" for retail investors, but "a choice under control."
At the same time, the Websea platform is promoting the "Elite PK Competition for Capital Guaranteed Traders", providing traffic support and incentives to traders with stable trading strategies and excellent risk control capabilities. Websea believes that the future of Web3 should not belong only to technology geeks and risk players. What Websea wants to do is not just a platform, but an entry-level Web3 financial service provider that can reshape trust and reconstruct rules.
