# Breaking: New Social Copy-Trading Platform Targets Broker Margin Crisis
Retail brokers are bleeding margins as forex spreads collapse near zero and client acquisition costs surge. rewalt: copy has launched a social trading infrastructure designed to combat this through institutional-grade liquidity integration and multi-product retention strategies rather than traditional churn models.
The platform connects strategy providers directly to Tier-1 liquidity via Equinix data hubs using pure A-Book execution, eliminating dealing-desk conflicts. Master traders receive automated weekly performance settlements calculated on high-water marks, scaling their assets under copy globally without manual billing overhead. The system integrates with MT5 terminals and an upcoming Visa card program to extend active client retention from the industry average of 2.5 months to over 7.5 months—a threefold improvement.
By allowing volatile manual traders to transition into passive copy-allocation instead of withdrawing, rewalt aims to create capital stickiness that traditional CFD brokers cannot match. Profits remain fully liquid and convertible to real-world spending power.
