Section 1
Purpose
This Profit Sharing & Prepaid Gas Balance Policy ("Policy") explains the prepaid Gas Balance and profit/loss-sharing mechanism applicable to users ("Users") of the Trustcoin automated cryptocurrency trading service ("Service").
Trustcoin does not charge Users a monthly subscription fee, recurring subscription fee or fixed monthly platform fee for the Service. Instead, the Service operates through a prepaid Gas Balance mechanism under which Trustcoin's applicable share of the Gross Trade PNL is settled against the User's Gas Balance.
This Policy forms part of and should be read together with the Trustcoin Terms of Service, Disclaimer/Risk Disclosure, Privacy Policy and other applicable Trustcoin policies.
Section 2
Prepaid Gas Balance
Before using the Service, the User must complete the applicable account registration, KYC verification, exchange/API integration and other required onboarding procedures.
Following completion of the required onboarding procedures, the User must recharge the Trustcoin Gas Balance in order to activate and continue using the automated trading Service.
Gas Balance recharges
- Are made through Binance Pay.
- Are denominated in USDT.
- Must be made in multiples of 100 USDT.
- Are credited to the User's Trustcoin Gas Balance following successful confirmation of the recharge.
The Gas Balance is a prepaid balance maintained for settlement of Trustcoin's applicable share of trading profit or loss under this Policy.
Not a SubscriptionA Gas Balance recharge is not a monthly subscription fee, recurring subscription or automatic renewal payment.
Section 3
Cumulative Gas Recharge
For determining the applicable profit-sharing slab, Trustcoin records the User's Cumulative Gas Recharge.
"Cumulative Gas Recharge" means the aggregate amount of qualifying Gas Balance recharges made by the User since commencement of the Service.
Cumulative Gas Recharge is based on the total amount recharged and is not reduced by:
- Deductions from the Gas Balance following profitable trades.
- Credits to the Gas Balance following losing trades.
- The User's current Gas Balance.
- Any negative Gas Balance carried forward.
Accordingly, the applicable profit-sharing slab is determined by the User's cumulative historical qualifying recharge amount and not by the User's current Gas Balance.
Section 4
Profit-Sharing Slabs
The applicable profit-sharing ratio is determined according to the User's Cumulative Gas Recharge as follows:
| Cumulative Gas Recharge | User's Share | Trustcoin's Share |
|---|---|---|
| Below 500 USDT | 50% | 50% |
| 500 USDT or more but below 1,000 USDT | 60% | 40% |
| 1,000 USDT or more | 70% | 30% |
The applicable slab is determined when the relevant cumulative recharge threshold is achieved.
Section 5
Permanent Slab Upgrade
Once a User achieves a higher profit-sharing slab, that slab is permanently retained by the User.
A User who achieves the 60% User / 40% Trustcoin slab will not subsequently revert to the 50% User / 50% Trustcoin slab.
A User who achieves the 70% User / 30% Trustcoin slab will not subsequently revert to either the 60% User / 40% or 50% User / 50% slab.
A User's achieved profit-sharing slab will not decrease as a result of:
- Reduction in the current Gas Balance.
- Use of the Gas Balance.
- Trading losses.
- Inactivity.
- Withdrawal of funds from the connected exchange account.
- Subsequent Gas Balance activity.
Section 6
Gross Trade PNL
For the purpose of this Policy, "Gross Trade PNL" means the profit or loss reported for an individual closed trade by the applicable trading system before deduction of exchange trading fees, funding fees, network fees, conversion fees or other third-party charges.
The profit/loss-sharing calculation between the User and Trustcoin is based on the Gross Trade PNL.
Third-party charges are separate from Trustcoin's profit/loss-sharing calculation and remain the responsibility of the User.
Section 7
Profit-Sharing on Profitable Trades
Following the closing of a trade that generates a positive Gross Trade PNL, Trustcoin's applicable percentage of that Gross Trade PNL is deducted from the User's Gas Balance.
Example — 50:50 Slab
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Gross Trade PNL | +20 USDT |
| User's share (50%) | 10 USDT |
| Trustcoin's share (50%) | 10 USDT |
| Gas Balance adjustment | 10 USDT deducted |
Example — 60:40 Slab
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Gross Trade PNL | +20 USDT |
| User's share (60%) | 12 USDT |
| Trustcoin's share (40%) | 8 USDT |
| Gas Balance adjustment | 8 USDT deducted |
Example — 70:30 Slab
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Gross Trade PNL | +20 USDT |
| User's share (70%) | 14 USDT |
| Trustcoin's share (30%) | 6 USDT |
| Gas Balance adjustment | 6 USDT deducted |
Section 8
Profit/Loss Sharing on Losing Trades
Following the closing of a trade that generates a negative Gross Trade PNL, Trustcoin's applicable percentage of that loss is credited to the User's Gas Balance.
This represents Trustcoin's corresponding share of the trading loss under the applicable profit-sharing slab.
Example — 50:50 Slab
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Gross Trade PNL | -20 USDT |
| User's share of loss (50%) | 10 USDT |
| Trustcoin's share of loss (50%) | 10 USDT |
| Gas Balance adjustment | 10 USDT credited |
Example — 60:40 Slab
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Gross Trade PNL | -20 USDT |
| User's share of loss (60%) | 12 USDT |
| Trustcoin's share of loss (40%) | 8 USDT |
| Gas Balance adjustment | 8 USDT credited |
Example — 70:30 Slab
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Gross Trade PNL | -20 USDT |
| User's share of loss (70%) | 14 USDT |
| Trustcoin's share of loss (30%) | 6 USDT |
| Gas Balance adjustment | 6 USDT credited |
Section 9
Trade-by-Trade Settlement
Profit or loss sharing is calculated and settled following the closing of each applicable trade.
The profit-sharing ratio applicable to a trade is determined according to the User's active profit-sharing slab at the time the trade's PNL is settled.
If the User achieves a higher cumulative recharge threshold, the higher profit-sharing slab will apply prospectively to eligible trades settled after the threshold has been achieved.
Previously settled trades will not be recalculated as a result of a subsequent slab upgrade.
Section 10
Insufficient or Negative Gas Balance
The User may continue to have open trading positions when the Gas Balance becomes low or insufficient.
If a profitable trade is closed when the User's available Gas Balance is insufficient to cover Trustcoin's applicable share of the Gross Trade PNL, the Gas Balance may become negative by the unpaid amount.
The negative Gas Balance represents an amount recoverable from the User's subsequent Gas Balance recharge.
Trading HoldWhere the Gas Balance is zero or negative, Trustcoin will not initiate or open new trades for the User.
Any existing open positions may continue to be managed by the trading system and may be closed according to the applicable trading strategy and system rules.
The Service will remain on hold with respect to opening new trades until the User makes a further qualifying Gas Balance recharge and the Gas Balance is restored to the required level.
Section 11
Recovery of Negative Gas Balance
When the User makes a subsequent Gas Balance recharge while a negative Gas Balance exists, the negative balance will first be adjusted against the new recharge.
Example
| Calculation | Amount |
|---|---|
| Existing Gas Balance | -20 USDT |
| New Gas Recharge | 100 USDT |
| Amount applied to recover negative balance | 20 USDT |
| Remaining Gas Balance | 80 USDT |
The User's Cumulative Gas Recharge will nevertheless include the full 100 USDT qualifying recharge for the purpose of determining profit-sharing slab eligibility.
Section 12
No Monthly Subscription Fee
Trustcoin does not charge a conventional monthly subscription fee, recurring subscription fee or automatic renewal fee for the Service.
Gas Balance recharges are prepaid amounts and are not subscriptions.
The User is responsible for maintaining an adequate Gas Balance for continued automated trading activity and settlement of applicable profit/loss-sharing adjustments.
Section 13
Third-Party Charges
Trustcoin's profit/loss-sharing mechanism is separate from charges imposed by cryptocurrency exchanges, payment providers, blockchain networks or other third parties.
Such charges may include:
- Exchange trading fees.
- Funding fees.
- Withdrawal fees.
- Network or blockchain fees.
- Conversion fees.
- Payment processing charges.
- Data fees.
- Other applicable third-party charges.
Such charges are not included in Trustcoin's Gross Trade PNL calculation unless expressly stated otherwise.
Section 14
No Guaranteed Profit
The Trustcoin profit-sharing model does not guarantee profits, returns, income or capital protection.
Cryptocurrency trading involves substantial risk and may result in significant or complete loss of trading capital.
Past or current performance does not guarantee future results.
The profit-sharing arrangement should not be interpreted as a guarantee that the User or Trustcoin will make a profit.
Section 15

- Gas Balance recharges.
- Cumulative Gas Recharge.

Section 17
Changes to This Policy
Trustcoin may amend this Policy from time to time.
Any amendment will be published with an updated effective date and will apply prospectively from the stated effective date, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
