Role of a Curator in Orion

In Orion, a curator is a portfolio manager who designs, launches, and maintains onchain investment strategies through permissionless vaults.

Curators can range from individual traders to professional asset management teams - anyone with a strategy can participate.

Your role as a curator includes:

  • Designing portfolio strategies that align with a specific objective (e.g., passive index, active trading, sector-based allocation).
  • Choosing the vault type - transparent (visible allocation) or private (confidential allocation).
  • Setting performance and management fees.
  • Managing the vault over time, including monitoring performance and adjusting allocations at each rebalance.

Orion’s infrastructure handles the heavy lifting: execution, fee accounting, performance tracking, and (if enabled) privacy-preserving trade settlement.
