Project Sovereign.

Mercatus popularis

Autonomous market intelligence. Verifiable. Explainable. For everyone. Institutional-grade research at $0.05 per analysis.

Democratising institutional research

Sovereign autonomously scans markets, runs multi-layer analysis (technical, sentiment, congressional trading patterns, macroeconomic regime detection), executes trades through an 8-layer safety system, and produces cryptographically verifiable audit trails — for roughly $0.05 per analysis versus $24,000 a year for a Bloomberg terminal. Built so the working class can access tools the institutions have always reserved for themselves.

A full discover → plan → execute → verify loop

The agent operates with zero human intervention required. Every decision is logged in structured JSON, stored immutably on IPFS via Storacha, and linked to an on-chain identity via ERC-8004. Premium analysis signals are encrypted with Lit Protocol and gated by token ownership. The agent's reputation is on-chain and grows from trade accuracy, not from a marketing budget.

Safety as structure

Every trade passes through eight layers of validation before execution. Position sizing, macro overlay, sector concentration limits, VIX-adaptive stops, daily loss circuit breakers, anomaly detection on price/volume/portfolio drift, market-hours enforcement, pre-trade guardrails. The agent can be trusted to operate autonomously because safety is structural, not advisory — the guardrails are code, not suggestions.
