According to the whitepaper, social trading in the cryptocurrency space is steadily growing. However, the benefits of social trading fail to exist for the options market. An option contract is the right of an investor to trade. Such a right does not entail an obligation. Alpha Impact seeks to become the pioneer to introduce options market trading to social trading platforms. Additionally, retail investors within the online investment space often lack the tools and equipment required for blockchain-based trading. To address such issues, Alpha Impact proposes to create its platform.
Alpha Impact is a non-custodial platform, meaning that by leveraging trade-focused technology, it is able to execute trades from client accounts without customers having to send funds to the platform in the process. Moreover, it proposes to provide decentralized wallets for discerning clients. Alpha Impact looks to create liquidity by implementing smart contracts. Smart contracts are like regular contracts; however, instead of being drafted on paper, these contracts run in the form of protocols on blockchain.

This potential market is accessed through various services and functionalities of the Alpha Impact platform. The technological features of Alpha Impact help the developers prevent market manipulation and unnecessary trading.
