Security & Custody

How Grid Master keeps your funds safe — and why you always stay in control.

Your Keys, Your Crypto

Grid Master is non-custodial. Your funds are held in a smart contract vault that only YOU can withdraw from. We never have access to your private keys or your tokens.

How It Works

Vault Smart Contract

Your funds are deposited into an on-chain Solana program (smart contract). This vault is unique to you and tied to your wallet.

Bot Has Limited Authority

The trading bot can only execute swaps within your defined parameters. It cannot withdraw funds, change your wallet, or exceed your risk limits.

On-Chain Enforcement

All limits (max trade size, slippage, price range) are enforced by the smart contract itself — not just our servers. This is trustless security.

What You Can Do

  • Withdraw funds at any time
  • Pause the bot instantly
  • Change grid parameters
  • Update risk limits
  • Close your vault entirely

What The Bot Cannot Do

  • Withdraw your funds
  • Trade outside your price range
  • Exceed your max trade size
  • Trade with more slippage than allowed
  • Access your private keys

What If Something Goes Wrong?

Our servers go down

Your funds remain safe in the vault. No trades execute, but you can still withdraw directly through the smart contract.

Bot key is compromised

An attacker could only execute trades (not withdrawals). You can revoke bot authority and pause the vault from your wallet.

Grid Master shuts down

You can always withdraw your funds. The vault is controlled by your wallet, not by us.

What You're Trusting

While Grid Master is non-custodial, here's what you are trusting when you use the platform:

  • The smart contract code — that it correctly enforces limits and withdrawals
  • Jupiter DEX — that swaps execute correctly and are routed well
  • Solana network — that transactions are processed reliably

Risk Acknowledgment

While we've designed Grid Master with security as a priority, all smart contracts carry inherent risks. Only deposit funds you can afford to lose. Consider starting small while you learn how the system works.
