Your wallet approves AlphaYou’s encrypted agent key to trade in your Hyperliquid account. Withdrawals require your wallet. Encryption, address checks and a signing guard protect agent-key use.

​
Your funds stay yours

Your funds sit in your own copy account on Hyperliquid, not with AlphaYou or the trader you follow. Your user-owned Privy wallet authorizes withdrawals. A separate agent key lets AlphaYou copy trades while you are offline.

​
How the trading key is protected

  • Encrypted storage. Agent keys are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before storage.
  • Address checks. Before use, the engine checks that the key matches the agent address recorded for your account.
  • Restricted signing. The copy engine allows supported trading actions and rejects withdrawals and transfers.
The key is decrypted in server memory to trade. Encryption protects stored keys; it does not eliminate the risk of a compromised server.

​
Automatic key renewal

A trading key lasts 90 days. When you copy trade, AlphaYou renews it for you before it expires, so your copies keep running. To do this, your copy wallet lets AlphaYou’s signer approve a replacement trading key, and nothing else. It cannot withdraw. A Privy policy enforces that limit.

​
How to remove access

  1. Use the correct copy wallet to revoke its agent through Hyperliquid.
  2. Remove the automatic renewal permission too. It can approve a replacement agent.
  3. Review open orders and positions. Revoking access does not close positions or cancel every order.
Pausing or signing out does not revoke access. Secure your wallet login and verify recovery or export access through Privy before you need it. Never share keys or seed phrases.

​
What still carries risk

A trading key cannot withdraw, but it can place losing trades. Losses, liquidation, wallet compromise and Hyperliquid protocol or bridge failures remain possible. Non-custodial does not mean risk-free.
