Yeah the purpose of this is for people to be able to invest in XPY while completely sharing in the upside verses limiting the downside to a maximum of 10 percent loss.  In this account you would need XPY to gain 5 percent to makeup the paid fee.

a good explanation for some people can be found here.  http://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/hedge.asp

These are really limited due to the fact its basically shorting XPY for the purpose of us trying to create a protection of sorts for new or current investors.  It was started as a pilot to see if this would be something someone is interested in.  So far most people are just confused.  So maybe the financial move is probably a little to confusing.  Ultimately the Goal of this program is to try to create hopefully winning situations for investors into crypto... or at minimum create limited downside propositions.
