Overview

Operator and jurisdiction: BASIS is operated by BASIS DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD, a Seychelles IBC (LEI: 254900IX2F2KCWNSSS64).

Currency convention: Dashboard values may be displayed in USDT as an internal accounting reference. USDT is not depositable or withdrawable. Supported assets: BTC, ETH, SOL, and PAXG.

BASIS is a research-driven structural alpha platform built from the work of Base58 Labs.

Base58 Labs acts as the research engine: it studies market microstructure, execution risk, and the mathematical conditions under which alpha exists in crypto market residuals. BASIS is the execution layer: it turns those research outputs into user-facing strategies that are operationally simple, risk-aware, and continuously monitored.

BASIS is operated with an institutional-grade control framework and internationally certified management systems. BASIS DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD maintains active ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for information security management and active ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018 certification for IT service management. The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification remains active with a last updated date of March 27, 2026, and both certifications are publicly verifiable on IAF CertSearch.

What BASIS is

BASIS is designed to pursue market-neutral returns by capturing objective market inefficiencies such as price gaps, funding differentials, liquidity fragmentation, and execution precision opportunities rather than predicting the direction of BTC, ETH, SOL, or PAXG. It prioritizes Execution First: fill quality, latency discipline, and slippage control, alongside Capital Preservation: risk constraints, circuit breakers, and conservative operating rules. These principles are embedded in the platform’s strategy matrix, risk engine, operating policies, and the certified operational management systems maintained by BASIS DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD.

What you will find in this GitBook

This GitBook is written as both:

1. A whitepaper-grade operating manual explaining the system architecture, economics, risk controls, and operational model

2. A user guide showing how to onboard, deposit, stake, unstake, and withdraw

Navigation is organized by decision path:

• New user: start with Getting Started and Risk Disclosure

• Investor or allocator: start with Whitepaper and Economics & Rewards

• Technical reviewer: start with Technical Architecture and Risk Management

• PAXG user: start with PAXG Integration

Non-negotiable definitions

BASIS uses precise definitions to avoid ambiguity:

• Market neutral does not mean risk-free. Strategies are designed to minimize directional exposure, but execution, operational, and counterparty risks remain.

• Mathematically verified means strategy logic is expressed through constraints and invariants across pre-trade, in-trade, and post-trade states, then tested against defined failure modes. It does not mean returns are guaranteed.

• Quantity preservation means 1:1 conversion between supported native assets and staking tokens for principal accounting:

  • BTC ↔ stBTC

  • ETH ↔ stETH

  • SOL ↔ stSOL

  • PAXG ↔ stPAXG

Quickstart checklist

1

Read Risk Disclosure, especially valuation conventions, system states, lock-up rules, and operational assumptions.

2

Create an account using email code login.

3

Deposit supported native assets into your Funding Wallet:

• BTC via your BASIS-assigned deposit address

• ETH, SOL, or PAXG via connected Web3 wallet

4

Swap native assets 1:1 into staking tokens:

• BTC → stBTC

• ETH → stETH

• SOL → stSOL

• PAXG → stPAXG

5

Stake from your Staking Wallet and monitor rewards in real time.

6

When the lock-up ends, unstake the full position. Claimable rewards are auto-credited to the Staking Wallet as the same stToken.

Wallet model

Wallet	Asset type	Purpose
Funding Wallet	Native tokens	Deposit, hold, withdraw
Staking Wallet	stTokens	Stake, earn, receive auto-credited unstake proceeds

Supported deposit assets: BTC, ETH, SOL, PAXG

USDT is used only as an internal accounting and display unit. It cannot be deposited or withdrawn.

BASIS operates under active ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018 management system certifications held by BASIS DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD.

Core mechanics

Deposits

BTC

• Copy your unique BASIS-assigned BTC deposit address

• No Web3 wallet connection is required

• Minimum deposit: 0.0001 BTC

ETH / SOL / PAXG

Swap

Swaps are same-token only and always 1:1:

Native asset	Staking token
BTC	stBTC
ETH	stETH
SOL	stSOL
PAXG	stPAXG

No cross-asset swap path is supported inside the staking conversion flow.

Fees

Action	Fee
Deposit	0%
Withdrawal	0.05%
Swap	0.01%

Withdrawal timing

Asset	Typical processing time
BTC	30 minutes to 1 hour
ETH	1 to 6 minutes
SOL	1 to 6 minutes
PAXG	1 to 6 minutes

Staking, rewards, and lock logic

Booster schedule

Lock period	Booster
14D	+10%
30D	+20%
90D	+50%
180D	+100% (2×)

Fixed pool rules

• Rewards accumulate in real time as the same stToken

• Rewards appear in the Staking Wallet when unstake is executed

• Fixed pools can be unstaked only after the lock-up period ends

• No early exit option is available

• Unstake is full-position only and executes as auto-MAX

If you stake stBTC, rewards accrue as stBTC. If you stake stETH, rewards accrue as stETH. If you stake stSOL, rewards accrue as stSOL. If you stake stPAXG, rewards accrue as stPAXG.

The dashboard is organized into the following sections:

• Stake
