Brolyz Trade: Spot Trading Rules
Brolyz Trade enables eligible users to buy and sell supported digital assets in spot USDT pairs directly from within the Brolyz application. Trade is delivered as part of the Brolyz Wallet experience and operates under the same security and compliance principles, with rules tailored to spot trading activity.
This article explains how trading works on Brolyz, who can participate, what verification is required, and what rules apply to trading conduct.
1. Who Can Use Brolyz Trade
Brolyz Trade is currently available only to users who use the application in English.
Due to regulatory requirements, the following regions cannot access trading features:
- United States (US)
- United Arab Emirates (UAE)
Users located in these countries cannot deposit assets, place trade orders, or participate in any related financial activity.
To begin trading, every user must accept the Brolyz Trade Terms in the application. Trade Terms acceptance is a one-time action presented before the first order is placed.
2. Trading Without Full Verification: How It Works
Brolyz applies verification requirements where they matter most: at the point of withdrawal, not at the point of trading. This means:
- You can deposit supported assets into your Brolyz Wallet,
- You can place buy and sell orders on supported spot pairs,
- You can realize gains or losses from your trading activity,
- You can view your balance and trade history,
- But you cannot withdraw any funds (including trading profits) until you complete KYC, 2FA, and OTP verification.
All assets held in your wallet, including any balance resulting from trading activity, remain in a locked state for outgoing use until verification is completed. Trading profits are real and recorded in your account; they simply cannot leave the platform until you are fully verified.
This approach lets you explore the platform and trade with full functionality, while ensuring that any external movement of funds meets Brolyz's compliance and security standards.
3. Withdrawal of Trading Gains: KYC + 2FA + OTP Required
To withdraw any funds resulting from trading activity, you must complete all of the following:
- KYC (Know Your Customer) verification,
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) activation,
- OTP (one-time password) confirmation during withdrawal.
These requirements protect you from unauthorized access and are required by the Brolyz Terms of Use and applicable regulatory standards.
Users who have not completed all three steps cannot withdraw trading gains or any other funds under any circumstances.
4. Trade Infrastructure: A Multi-Layer System
Brolyz Trade is delivered through four coordinated layers, each responsible for a distinct part of the trading experience:
4.1 Brolyz: Application, User Experience & Trading Service
Brolyz is the provider of the trading service to users and operates the user-facing application. Brolyz is responsible for:
- Trade order interface and order confirmation flows,
- Trade history, balance views, and account presentation,
- Trade Terms acceptance and user-facing risk notices,
- Regional access controls and language eligibility,
- The overall delivery of the Brolyz Trade experience to users.
4.2 Ortachain: Settlement & Accounting Layer
Ortachain is the engineering team responsible for the trade settlement, accounting, and reconciliation infrastructure that powers Brolyz. For trading, Ortachain manages:
- Trade settlement and finalization,
- Internal ledger updates for buyers and sellers,
- Reconciliation between executed trades and wallet balances,
- Integration between the Brolyz application, Fireblocks custody, and the liquidity layer.
Every trade executed on Brolyz is settled through Ortachain's real-time accounting system, ensuring accuracy and platform-wide consistency.
4.3 Fireblocks: Secure Custody Layer
While orders are processed and settled, the underlying digital assets remain in Fireblocks' enterprise-grade MPC custody infrastructure. Fireblocks is responsible for:
- Custody of all digital assets held by Brolyz users,
- Cryptographic security of wallets and transaction signing,
- Withdrawal processing under verified user requests.
4.4 Gibi Swap: Trading Layer
Gibi Swap (short for Global Infrastructure for Blockchain Integration) is the tool that enables Brolyz to deliver its spot trading experience to its users.
Gibi Swap is not a standalone exchange, and it is not the service provider that users contract with on Brolyz. The trading service users experience on Brolyz is delivered by Brolyz; Gibi Swap is the underlying technology that makes that delivery possible.
Consistent with this positioning, Gibi Swap operates as an infrastructure module that allows digital platforms to embed token swap and trading functionality into their own user environments, rather than as a traditional decentralized exchange. Liquidity management, custody processes, and swap operations on Gibi Swap are structured on top of Ortachain infrastructure, allowing partner platforms to focus on improving user experience and executing their growth strategies.
In its initial phase, Gibi Swap is integrated into Brolyz, enabling Brolyz to offer its users:
- In-platform token trading operations,
- Access to VSTR-based trading pairs,
- The ability to continue their financial activities without leaving the platform.
Within Brolyz Trade, Gibi Swap is the technical tooling that:
- Routes orders and executes trades against available liquidity,
- Supplies market pricing for the pairs offered on Brolyz,
- Provisions liquidity for those pairs.
Together with Brolyz (user experience and trading service), Ortachain (settlement and accounting), and Fireblocks (custody), Gibi Swap completes the four-layer architecture that powers Brolyz Trade.
5. Supported Trading Activity
At launch, Brolyz Trade supports:
- Spot trading in supported USDT pairs,
- Buy and sell orders placed from the Brolyz application,
- Real-time settlement of executed trades into the user's wallet balance.
Margin trading, derivatives, futures, and leveraged products are not offered on Brolyz Trade. Any future expansion of trading activity will be subject to additional policy updates.
6. Fees
6.1 Total Trading Fee
A flat platform fee of 0.5% (fifty basis points) is applied to every executed spot trade on Brolyz Trade. This rate applies to all users and all supported pairs, regardless of trading volume.
The fee is automatically applied at the time of trade execution and is disclosed within the user's wallet history, where the details of each executed trade, including the fee amount, are permanently accessible after execution. The fee rate itself is published in this Policy, so users can review and understand the applicable fee before deciding to trade.
6.2 Fee Allocation
The 0.5% trading fee covers the costs of operating Brolyz Trade end-to-end, including the user-facing Brolyz application, the settlement and reconciliation infrastructure provided by Ortachain, and the execution and liquidity layer provided by Gibi Swap. The internal allocation of the fee among these parties is determined by Brolyz and may be adjusted from time to time at Brolyz's discretion.
The total fee paid by the user remains 0.5% per executed trade regardless of any such internal adjustment.
6.3 Affiliation Allocation
Where a trade is associated with an active Brolyz affiliation relationship, a portion of the fee retained by Brolyz is redirected to the affiliated party. The exact share allocated to affiliated parties is determined by Brolyz and may vary over time, including temporary increases that Brolyz may apply as part of promotional campaigns supporting its affiliation program.
The total fee paid by the user does not change, regardless of whether an affiliation relationship is active or what share is currently allocated to affiliated parties.
Eligibility rules, qualifying conditions, and operational details of the affiliation program are governed by the separate Brolyz affiliation terms.
6.4 Future Volume-Based Tiers
Brolyz may introduce a volume-based fee tier structure in the future, under which the standard 0.5% rate may be reduced based on a user's trading volume over a defined period. Any such tier structure will be:
- Announced in advance through the Brolyz application and help center,
- Reflected in the fee shown in the user's wallet history for each executed trade,
- Documented as an update to this Trade Policy.
Until a tier structure is introduced, the flat 0.5% rate applies to all trades.
6.5 Pass-Through Costs
Where third-party network costs (such as blockchain network fees on deposit or withdrawal) apply outside of trade execution, these may be passed through and shown transparently in the relevant operation, separately from the trading fee described above.
7. Prohibited Trading Behavior
To protect the integrity of the trading environment and other users, the following activities are strictly prohibited:
- Market manipulation, including but not limited to spoofing, layering, and pump-and-dump activity,
- Wash trading: trading with oneself or coordinated accounts to create the appearance of activity,
- Cross-account collusion to influence price or distort liquidity,
- Automated Trading and API Access: Brolyz Trade does not provide programmatic API access for trading. The use of bots, scripts, headless browsers, or any automated systems to interact with Brolyz Trade is prohibited.
- Front-running based on non-public Brolyz, Ortachain, or Gibi Swap information,
- Exploiting technical errors, pricing bugs, or system failures to obtain unintended gains,
- Trading on behalf of another individual without proper authorization,
- Any activity that violates applicable financial regulations, anti-money laundering (AML) laws, or sanctions regimes.
Brolyz reserves the right to freeze affected funds, reverse erroneous trades within a reasonable window, suspend or terminate accounts, and cooperate with relevant authorities in response to prohibited behavior.

- Digital asset prices are highly volatile and can change significantly within short periods,
- You may lose all or a substantial portion of the value you trade,
- Liquidity is not guaranteed; orders may be subject to slippage, partial execution, or temporary unavailability of certain pairs,

Brolyz does not provide investment recommendations and does not act as a fiduciary on behalf of users.
9. AML, Sanctions, and Transaction Monitoring
Trade activity on Brolyz is subject to anti-money laundering (AML) monitoring and sanctions screening. Brolyz and Ortachain may:
- Monitor trading and wallet activity for patterns consistent with money laundering, fraud, or market abuse,
- Request additional information or documentation from users when required,
- Freeze accounts or trade activity pending review where activity appears suspicious,
- Report relevant activity to competent authorities where required by applicable law,
- Decline to process withdrawals where sanctions or AML obligations require it.
These controls protect both individual users and the integrity of the Brolyz platform.
10. Order Errors and Settlement Disputes
In the unlikely event of an order execution error, system failure, or settlement discrepancy:
- Trades may be corrected, cancelled, or reversed within 24 hours of the execution timestamp, at Brolyz's reasonable discretion, where doing so restores accurate user balances. After this 24-hour window, executed trades are considered final and will not be reversed.,
- Ortachain's reconciliation records serve as the system of record for trade settlement,
- Brolyz will notify affected users of any material corrections through in-app or email notifications.
11. Frequently Asked Questions
11.1 Do I need KYC to start trading?
No. You can deposit assets and trade on Brolyz without completing KYC, 2FA, or OTP. You only need to accept the Brolyz Trade Terms before placing your first order. KYC, 2FA, and OTP are required only when you want to withdraw funds, including any gains from trading.
