Release History

Major release introducing Smart Entry Timing™, significant leaderboard accuracy improvements, and full Cascade Alert System™ configurability. Also includes the first public API batch endpoint for portfolio polling.

• Smart Entry Timing™ — Whale Protocol exclusive. Analyzes 90 days of entry patterns per tracked wallet and delays copy trade execution to sync with the wallet's historically best-performing time slots. Average improvement in copy entry price: 2.1 percentage points.
• Cascade Alert full configurability — Users can now set minimum wallet count (3–7), time window (30 min–6 hours), and per-cascade copy multiplier independently from standard settings
• API: /v1/portfolio/batch — Returns portfolio metrics for all your wallets in a single request (Whale Protocol only)
• Per-wallet conviction threshold overrides — Set a different minimum conviction score for individual tracked wallets, overriding the global setting
• Market expiry filter — New risk management option to skip markets with fewer than N hours until resolution

• Leaderboard ROI calculation now properly accounts for position sizing (previously used simple win/loss count weighting)
• Ghost Wallet scoring algorithm v3 — incorporates market category consistency weighting, improving discovery relevance by ~18% in internal testing
• On-chain data pipeline throughput increased from 14K to 18K events/sec with new block indexer sharding
• Dashboard P&L chart now supports 90-day view in addition to 24h, 7d, and 30d
• Webhook delivery now retries with exponential backoff up to 5 times on failed delivery (previously 3 retries)
• Mobile dashboard: improved touch responsiveness for position cards and chart interactions

• Contrarian Mode no longer double-fires when two tracked wallets simultaneously hold opposing positions on the same market
• Syndicate Mode order aggregation window was occasionally extending to 4 seconds instead of the intended 2 seconds under load
• Fixed edge case where partial Exit Mirror™ execution could leave positions sized incorrectly when tracked wallet did multiple rapid partial exits

Emergency hotfix for a critical bug in the Exit Mirror™ engine that caused delayed exit signal detection under high blockchain congestion conditions.

• Exit Mirror™: fixed 15–45 second exit detection delay triggered by RPC node failover events during high-congestion blocks. Exit detection now maintains sub-second latency across all node failover scenarios.
• Corrected USDC balance display rounding that showed incorrect 2-decimal balance in dashboard header
• Rotated webhook signing secret infrastructure — no user action required; existing webhook secrets remain valid

Performance and reliability improvements following the major v2.3.0 Contrarian Mode launch.

• Contrarian Mode retail sentiment calculation now updates every 30 seconds (previously 2 minutes) for faster signal detection
• API key generation moved to hardware-backed entropy source; key strength increased to 256 bits
• Dashboard initial load time reduced by 340ms through deferred component loading
• Reduced false positive Cascade Alert rate by 12% through improved wallet deduplication in correlated entry detection

• Fixed category whitelist not persisting across dashboard sessions for new Alpha Hunter subscribers
• Corrected /v1/signals/cascade endpoint returning duplicate entries for cascades that involved 5+ wallets
• Daily loss limit counter was not resetting at 00:00 UTC for accounts in UTC+12 and UTC+13 timezones
