Why it works

Inefficiencies are structural.
machine harvests them.

Crypto markets are fragmented across dozens of venues, thinly quoted on mid-cap pairs, and open 24/7 without circuit breakers. This creates persistent bid-ask spreads, cross-pair mispricings, and inter-exchange price dislocations that a properly configured system can capture continuously — without making a single directional bet on whether prices go up or down.

01

Market Making — Earn the Spread

Every asset has a bid-ask spread: the gap between what buyers will pay and what sellers will accept. machine posts simultaneous buy and sell limit orders on both sides of this spread, earning the difference each time both sides fill. This is the same role institutional market makers play — providing liquidity in exchange for a small, consistent edge on every round-trip. On mid-cap pairs like SOL/USDC where order books are thinner, these spreads are wider and more frequent. Exchange maker rebates stack on top.

Your benefit: steady, recurring income without predicting price direction
02

Triangular Arbitrage — Capture Pricing Loops

On any exchange, the prices of interconnected pairs should stay mathematically consistent. If you convert USDC → BTC → ETH → USDC, the result should be exactly 1.000. In practice, it often isn't — fleeting mispricings emerge as order flow hits different pairs at different times. machine monitors these cross-rate relationships continuously and executes all three legs of the cycle in rapid succession when the loop yields a net positive after fees. This is a pure arbitrage: no inventory is held and no market view is required.

Your benefit: risk-limited profit from mathematical mispricings
03

Cross-Exchange Arbitrage — Exploit Price Dislocations

The same asset often trades at slightly different prices across exchanges. BTC on Coinbase and BTC on Kraken should be identical, but latency, regional demand, and liquidity fragmentation create momentary price dislocations. machine watches both venues simultaneously and, when the spread exceeds the combined fee threshold, buys on the cheaper exchange and sells on the more expensive one in parallel. No net market exposure. The only requirement is pre-positioned capital on both exchanges.

Your benefit: capture inter-venue inefficiencies the market naturally creates
Strategy detail

Three edges. Zero directional bets.

None of these strategies require you to predict whether crypto goes up or down. Each one captures a different type of structural inefficiency. Returns shown below are net of exchange fees, modeled with realistic fill rates (15–25%), adverse selection, and execution slippage. Profitability depends on your Coinbase fee tier.

Market Making Core

You become the liquidity provider. machine continuously quotes buy and sell limit orders on both sides of the bid-ask spread on mid-cap pairs where competition from institutional desks is thinner. Every time both sides fill, you capture the spread — the small price gap between the bid and the ask that exists on every traded asset. Coinbase also pays maker rebates on each fill, adding a second layer of income on top of the spread itself. This is the workhorse strategy: consistent, high-frequency, and non-directional.

Triangular Arbitrage Add-on

When three interconnected trading pairs on the same exchange fall out of mathematical alignment, a riskless profit opportunity briefly appears. For example: if USDC → BTC → ETH → USDC yields more than 1.000 after fees, the difference is pure profit. These mispricings are caused by order flow hitting different pairs at different moments and typically last fractions of a second. machine monitors these cross-rate relationships continuously and executes all three legs in rapid succession when the cycle is net-positive. No inventory is held between cycles — you start and end in USDC.

Cross-Exchange Arbitrage Add-on

The same asset should theoretically trade at the same price everywhere, but it doesn't. Latency, regional order flow, and liquidity depth differences create persistent price dislocations between exchanges — BTC on Coinbase might trade $5–$50 higher than on Kraken at any given moment. machine watches both order books simultaneously and, when the spread exceeds combined trading fees, executes a simultaneous buy on the cheaper venue and sell on the more expensive one. No net market exposure. You aren't betting on BTC going up or down — you're capturing the price gap between two venues.

FAQ

Common questions.

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What is machine exactly?
machine is set-and-forget trading software that captures structural inefficiencies in cryptocurrency markets — bid-ask spreads, cross-pair mispricings, and inter-exchange price dislocations — automatically, 24/7. It is not a fund, platform, or managed service. You buy a license, follow our guided setup wizard, connect your own exchange API keys, and it runs up to three non-directional strategies continuously without requiring daily decisions or active management from you.
Do you have access to my money?
No. Your capital sits in your own exchange accounts (Coinbase, Kraken). Your API keys and balances are stored only on your server and are never transmitted. machine communicates with our servers only for license validation and optional anonymized telemetry (aggregate performance metrics via random IDs, with no link to your identity). You can disable telemetry at any time.
How much capital do I need?
machine is configurable from $1,000 to $1,000,000+. Most users deploy $10,000 or more to see meaningful results from all three strategies. Use the cash flow model above to see modeled outcomes at any capital level.
What are the risks?
These strategies are non-directional — they don't bet on prices going up or down — but they are not risk-free. Market making carries inventory risk: you may briefly hold a position if one side of your order fills and the other doesn't. Triangular arbitrage carries leg slip risk: later legs in a three-trade cycle may execute at worse prices than expected. Cross-exchange arbitrage carries execution risk: the price gap may close between the time you send the order and it fills. You can still lose capital. See our full Risk Disclosure for details.
Do I need technical knowledge to set this up?
No. Our setup wizard walks you through every step with visual instructions. You'll create a small cloud server (we show you exactly how — it takes about 5 minutes and costs ~$6/month), then paste one command the wizard generates for you. machine handles the rest: installing, configuring, and starting everything automatically. No command line experience or server knowledge required.
How long does setup take?
Most users go from purchase to live trading in under 15 minutes. The setup wizard pre-fills your configuration so there's nothing to research or figure out. The longest part is creating your exchange API keys, which we guide you through with step-by-step screenshots.
Is Kraken required?
No. If you don't provide Kraken API keys, the cross-exchange strategy is disabled and capital automatically redistributes to 60% market making and 40% triangular arbitrage. You can add Kraken later at any time.
What happens if I cancel my subscription?
Your software keeps running through the end of your billing period. After that, you'll continue to receive security patches but not feature updates, new strategies, or new market modules. You can re-subscribe at any time to restore full access. All sales are final — no refunds on any billing period.
Can I run multiple installations?
Each license key activates one installation. If you want to run machine on multiple servers, you'll need additional licenses. Contact support for volume pricing.
Are returns guaranteed?
No. machine is software, not an investment product. All figures in the cash flow model are modeled illustrations, not guarantees. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions.
How do I get support?
All-Access subscribers get priority email support at [email protected]. All subscribers have access to the community Discord. Documentation is available at docs.getmachine.io.

Your exchange accounts

You create and own accounts on Coinbase Advanced and Kraken. Your capital sits in your accounts. machine uses API keys you generate and can revoke at any time.

Perpetual license

When you buy machine, you own that version of the software. It will continue to run whether or not you maintain an annual update plan.

Anonymized telemetry, opt-out anytime

machine sends anonymized performance metrics (return %, trade count, win rate) via random IDs with no link to your identity. Your API keys, balances, and positions are never transmitted. Opt out anytime from your dashboard or with TELEMETRY=off.

Get started

Set it up once. Let it run.

15 minutes from purchase to live. Our guided setup wizard handles the complexity so you don't have to. Three non-directional strategies capturing spreads and mispricings around the clock — no ongoing management required.
