Messy Fund Update
Latest update
Fund / Signal update · 7 November 2026
Weekly workflow proof for Messy-managed micro test funds on Base and Robinhood Chain: Guru Lotus books base04, base05, and base06, plus Lagoon books lg-base00, lg-base01, lg-base02, and safe-lg-rh01, plus paper book paper-meme. Screening prepares evidence; the Chair decides; the system records the resolution; only then can execution mutate the book. Macro and narrative below are the postures those sessions used, not a live market refresh at publish time.
Custody / provider
This week's public micro books use Guru Lotus and Lagoon custody adapters, plus one paper book. base04, base05, and base06 sit on Guru Lotus vaults on Base. Messy's engine runs research, council decisioning, and trade construction; capital on those books sits in Guru's vault contracts. On the Guru books, the trading key can trade but cannot withdraw, a limit enforced by the vault contracts, not our software. lg-base00, lg-base01, and lg-base02 sit on Lagoon vaults on Base. safe-lg-rh01 sits on a Lagoon vault on Robinhood Chain. paper-meme is a paper-trading book on Robinhood Chain used for public screening proof; it does not hold live capital in a vault adapter. Provider-side contract failure is venue risk on the live adapters. Keys for live books live in Turnkey; our backend never holds key material.

This week at a glance
- 42 council sessions across 7 micro funds — 25 executed, 13 holds, 2 blocked.
- Week regime path: Risk-off (R-) all week — Effective macro regime is R- with fresh coverage and 80% confidence.
- WASSIE led aggregate screens this week. A candidate signal, not an automatic trade.
Across the councils
- Several Chairs flagged soft narrative tape — a large share of beta book value sat in narratives with negative 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES. (base04, base06, lg-base00, lg-base01, safe-lg-rh01; 5 funds).
- Fresh-only candidates were added cautiously (small size, watch for aggregate confirmation) rather than as full slate replacements. (base05, lg-base01, lg-base02; 3 funds).
What's new in the app
- paper-meme joined the public suite on 22 October as a Robinhood Chain paper book. Its daily screening list is the public Fund OS screen for that book's meme-index universe. Anyone can inspect the daily candidates on the fund screening page. Screens still stop at ideas: council and execution decide size, venue, and fills on live books. paper-meme screening →

base04 — council & book
No trades executed: the council's target intent failed governance review because the beta selection relied on a token outside the sleeve's addable set, and the follow-up is a revised target intent for review.
Week strip: Mon hold · Tue hold · Wed exec · Thu exec · Fri hold · Sat target · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 62.2% → 30% · Base 37.8% → 39% · High-beta 0% → 31%
Tue hold Entry into BYTE should be capped at or near the $1.00 minimum position value; at any larger size the flagged 1340 bps round trip and +993 bps route gap make the trade a deterministic execution-cost loss.
Closing session
Cash 33.4% → 30% · Base 50.2% → 39% · High-beta 16.4% → 31%
Recommendation was projected onto the regime-band convergence step by validation.
- Posture-mandated beta raise (+14.6% session move) has no executable entry leg this session; the raise will be carried by the deterministic layer only when selectable candidates exist
- Effective Risk Off regime (news overlay, delivered score 23.32) argues against aggressive beta deployment while the posture directs beta up; regime preference is subordinate to the locked posture
- 100% of beta book value sits in narratives with negative trailing 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES (Meme), and in a single position — concentration and narrative-momentum risk are both live
Top aggregate candidates — 7-day lookback , as of 7 November 2026
base05 — council & book
No trades executed: the council ratified the current book as a maintain-current outcome, with follow-up limited to carrying watch items forward.
Week strip: Mon exec · Tue hold · Wed hold · Thu exec · Fri hold · Sat hold · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 26.5% → 28% · Base 36.7% → 36.4% · High-beta 36.8% → 35.6%
Tue hold MRDN exit proceeds (~$0.82) fall below the $1.00 minimum ticket and the flagged ~8,789 bps route gap consumes most of the position value; any further reduce is a near-guaranteed friction loss — full exit or…
Closing session
Cash 28% · Base 35.4% → 36.4% · High-beta 36.6% → 35.6%
Recommended movement is base +1.0%, high beta -1.0%; each change remains inside the configured session movement caps of cash 15.0%, base 15.0%, and high beta 15.0%.
- effective Risk Off regime (news overlay, delivered macro score 23.32) argues against new beta entries this session even where screening supports candidates
- AYB carries fresh-only evidence with no aggregate screen history and a +22.6% one-day move with RSI up 18.1 — entry/hold sizing should reflect the thin pedigree
- ANI absent from the latest fresh run while holding aggregate rank 3 — single-session divergence, watch for a second consecutive session before acting
Top aggregate candidates — 7-day lookback , as of 7 November 2026
base06 — council & book
No trades executed: the council ratified the current book and the manager declined the rebalance package at execution review, so the fund was not modified.
Week strip: Mon exec · Tue exec · Wed hold · Thu exec · Fri hold · Sat hold · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 26.2% → 28.3% · Base 35.5% → 36.8% · High-beta 38.3% → 34.9%
Wed hold Effective Risk-Off regime with confirmed hold argues against adding fresh beta; new entries proposed into a softening flow backdrop (stablecoin mcap -4% 30d, ETF flows net negative).
Closing session
Cash 28.8% → 28.3% · Base 36.4% → 36.8% · High-beta 34.8% → 34.9%
Recommended movement is cash -0.5%, base +0.4%, high beta +0.1%; each change remains inside the configured session movement caps of cash 15.0%, base 15.0%, and high beta 15.0%.
- Effective regime is Risk Off on a news overlay over a Neutral base; avoid deploying reserve capital into new beta until the overlay proves or fades
- 85.4% of beta book value sits in narratives with negative trailing 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES — standing drawdown exposure in a confirmed risk-off regime, not a per-holding exit trigger
- LINK at 10.4% NAV is the top-1 position; any increase would press concentration limits

lg-base00 — council & book
No trades executed: the council ratified the current book as a maintain-current outcome, locking a fund posture of roughly 28.5% cash, 36.8% base, and 34.8% high beta, with realized post-execution weights not yet available.
Week strip: Mon hold · Tue hold · Wed exec · Thu exec · Fri exec · Sat hold · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 35% → 28.5% · Base 29.8% → 36.8% · High-beta 35.1% → 34.8%
Tue hold Both fresh candidates carry ~1700 bps probed round trips with negligible pool liquidity — not executable at meaningful size; any rotation into them is a net friction loss.
Closing session
Cash 29.2% → 28.5% · Base 36.4% → 36.8% · High-beta 34.4% → 34.8%
Recommended movement is cash -0.7%, base +0.3%, high beta +0.4%; each change remains inside the configured session movement caps of cash 15.0%, base 15.0%, and high beta 15.0%.
- Effective Risk Off regime is news-overlay driven while the underlying macro is Neutral; if the overlay decays, the defensive reading loses its basis — re-check next session
- 100% of beta book value attributed to narratives with negative trailing 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES; standing thematic headwind, not a per-name trigger
- All four incumbents absent from the aggregate screen; if the absence persists across sessions it becomes a coverage deterioration signal
Top aggregate candidates — 7-day lookback , as of 7 November 2026
lg-base01 — council & book
The rebalance executed and reconciled, ratifying a fund posture of about 12% cash, 18% base, and 71% high beta (up from about 5/10/86), funded by the two required exits left unfilled last session; realized post-execution weights are not yet available.
Week strip: Mon exec · Tue exec · Wed exec · Thu exec · Fri exec · Sat exec · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 16.1% → 11.6% · Base 3.6% → 17.8% · High-beta 80.3% → 70.6%
Closing session
Cash 4.8% → 11.6% · Base 9.6% → 17.8% · High-beta 85.6% → 70.6%
Recommendation was projected onto the regime-band convergence step by validation.
- 77.5% of beta book value sits in narratives with negative trailing 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES; the de-risk reduces but does not eliminate this concentration
- Fresh-only candidates (SPCXC, TBTC, SPX, ALEPH) have no aggregate screening history; sizing should reflect single-run evidence
- SLC carries 23.2% ATR% 24h and sits 41.5% below its 180d high — the two measured axes most negatively associated with 30d forward returns

lg-base02 — council & book
The rebalance executed and reconciled, but the two required-exit sell legs for FBOMB and MAG7 failed simulation and did not execute, so those exits remain outstanding for retry.
Week strip: Mon blocked · Tue blocked · Wed exec · Thu exec · Fri exec · Sat exec · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 2.9% → 10.6% · Base 2.3% → 12.9% · High-beta 94.8% → 76.5%
Tue blocked FBOMB exit cost is 154 bps at position notional against $52.2k global volume; the sell leg should be sized and staged accordingly.
Closing session
Cash 3.9% → 10.6% · Base 4.7% → 12.9% · High-beta 91.5% → 76.5%
Recommendation was projected onto the regime-band convergence step by validation.
- Effective Risk Off regime is news-overlay-driven (delivered score 23.32 vs observed Neutral 48.32); the fundamental backdrop alone would not justify a defensive reading — do not let the overlay justify exits…
- Fresh-only candidates (SPCXC, SPX, CETES) have no aggregate track record; CETES additionally shows $87 liquidity and 52% ATR — do not enter on fresh-only evidence into a reducing posture.
- SLC shows fresh/aggregate rank divergence (1 vs 6) with 23.2% ATR and $97k primary-pool liquidity; entry-timing caution if ever considered.

safe-lg-rh01 — council & book
The rebalance executed and reconciled: the council ratified a posture of about 32% base, 34% cash, and 34% high beta plus a rotation removing VOLT and adding PRIORS, and four transactions settled, though the required VOLT exit route failed simulation and remains an unfilled residual of about $3.72.
Week strip: Mon exec · Tue exec · Wed target · Thu exec · Fri exec · Sat exec · 6 sessions
Week net · Cash 28.3% → 34% · Base 19.1% → 32.2% · High-beta 52.6% → 33.8%
Tue exec 73.1% of beta book value sits in narratives with negative trailing 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES; the posture reduction mitigates this at bucket level but name-level tilt persists after the trim.
Closing session
Cash 49.8% → 34% · Base 18.3% → 32.2% · High-beta 31.9% → 33.8%
Recommendation was projected onto the regime-band convergence step by validation.
- Effective regime is Risk Off on a news-driven overlay while the underlying macro picture is Neutral; the ~25-point subtract is event-driven and could reverse — size new entries for the defensive read, not the…
- 100% of beta book value sits in narratives with negative trailing 30d momentum vs TOTAL3ES; the book is fully exposed to a weak alt tape
- ABYSS exit cost of 200 bps is a material execution ceiling at position notional; any future reduction of ABYSS should account for round-trip friction before acting
