The paper-trading beta engine — Director, Vanguard, Shield, Arbiter — running locally on your machine, wired directly into the same Oracle signal feed that powers the API.
It doesn't watch charts. It reads regime, momentum, funding distortion, liquidity pressure, and eight other signal domains, then enters, sizes, and protects positions on its own.
Every time you launch A.S.T.R.O., you choose: 1–10.
Not a one-time setup. Not locked at signup. Every session, you decide how hard your engine should lean into the market that day — from defensive capital preservation at 1, to full conviction sizing at 10. Same signal. Same Oracle. Your call, every time you boot it up.
Qualifying paid bot purchases from September 30, 2026 through September 29, 2027 (Alaska time) include API access without an additional subscription charge for as long as ASTRO operates the service, subject to published usage limits. The purchase window ending does not end your benefits.
Your support funds continued development of ASTRO and Hive. Feedback, release testing and future Hive participation are opt-in. Live trading and broader exchange support remain future development goals, not current features or promised release dates.
One-time bot purchase; no automatic API subscription is created. Existing standalone API subscriptions are separate. Outside the founding window, the standard offer is three calendar months of API access, then a separate subscription if you choose to continue.
