Instead, participation is structured in a simplified and clearly defined way: * allocating capital to the system * selecting an available strategy * receiving the results generated by the infrastructure All technical processes, including data analysis, decision-making, and trade execution, are handled entirely by the system. This approach removes the need for participants to: * understand trading mechanics * monitor markets * manage positions * make real-time decisions In traditional trading models, results depend heavily on individual skill, experience, and constant involvement.\ In contrast, Illuminance separates the participant from operational complexity by embedding expertise directly into the technological layer. The participant’s role is therefore not to operate the system, but to access and benefit from it. Depending on their level of involvement, participants can engage with the ecosystem in different ways, including capital allocation, strategy participation, and optional development of teams or leadership roles. *** This model allows participants to engage with advanced financial infrastructure in a simplified way, where results are driven by the system rather than individual execution. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://illuminance.gitbook.io/docs/illuminance-business-model/business-model-overview/participant-role-in-the-system.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
