Explore one fictional BTC/USD position. See what a price move means for the participant, the liquidity pool, and the amount needed to settle.
Every price and balance below is a fictional input you control. There is no live market feed, oracle, account, or deployed protocol behind this worksheet.
01 / One position, both sides of the ledger
Build a scenario.
USD amounts are entered to the cent. Calculations do not move money.

Trace the outcome.
Calculate to see profit or loss, equity, and whether the stated balances cover a hypothetical settlement.

Margin × leverage
Raw profit / loss

Signed position equity
Margin + raw profit / loss
Profit owed by the liquidity pool
Liquidity shortfall
Loss beyond posted margin
Algebraic projected pool balance
Conditions still unresolved
Profit or loss is truncated toward zero to whole cents. The projected pool balance is pool funds minus raw profit or loss; when losses exceed margin, it includes an uncollected deficit. A balanced illustration is an arithmetic check, not an executable settlement, audit, or assurance of market safety.
02 / An obligation does not disappear
When liquidity has to wait.
SIMULATED PROFIT CLAIMS
Two fictional profit amounts have been finalised: Alice is owed $120, then Bo is owed $80. The dedicated repayment pool starts empty. Add fictional funds, allocate them in order, then let each beneficiary withdraw their reserved amount.
This is an independent demonstration. The price inputs above do not create claims here. Posted trading margin is held separately and is not part of this repayment pool.

Allocation visits at most two claims per step. A partial payment stays with the oldest unfunded claim before the next one receives funds.

Action
Illustrative risk guard / blocked
Existing obligations come first.
New risk stays blocked while profit claims await funding or no free risk capital remains.
Reserve first. Withdraw separately. In the proposed contract, anyone could trigger a bounded allocation step; only the beneficiary could withdraw their reserved funds. A failed withdrawal would leave that reservation intact and would not stop funding the next claim.
A queue records debt; it does not create liquidity. There is no promised waiting time or guaranteed future funding. Unfunded claims are not a substitute for launch capital. This example does not divert another trader’s margin, and proposes no XO distribution while participant obligations remain open.
Browser arithmetic only. Clearing this guard never opens trading or confirms that a real pool is safe.
03 / What this proves
A visible accounting path.
For one hypothetical linear position, we can trace the price change to profit or loss, preserve negative equity, and expose a liquidity shortfall. A stale or divergent price assumption blocks an illustrative settlement. A separate claim ledger illustrates partial FIFO funding and beneficiary withdrawals without erasing the balance still owed.
04 / What remains
The protocol itself.
Live price checks, liquidation, funding and fees, collateral custody, pool risk, contract permissions and admin powers are not implemented here. Neither are wallet transactions, real deposits or withdrawals, or BTC payment rails.
The next implementation must be tested and independently reviewed. These browser models are not evidence that a production protocol is secure or fully decentralized.
