For years, accessing more trading capital has looked remarkably similar.
Buy an evaluation.
Trade under a predefined set of rules.
Hope to pass.
Then, and only then, gain access to a larger account.
o2 thinks that sequence is backwards.
The fully onchain spot exchange, built on Fuel Network, has launched Turbo Accounts, a new product that lets traders access up to $10,000 in trading capital without completing an evaluation or funding challenge first.
Instead of earning access to a funded account, traders simply choose the amount of buying power they want, post refundable margin, pay a fixed premium and begin trading within minutes.
Turbo Accounts are available in $2,500, $5,000 and $10,000 sizes, with durations ranging from six hours to one month. Traders can extend an account, close it early or withdraw profits whenever they choose.
The idea is behind it is easy to get: if compute can be rented by the hour and cloud infrastructure can be spun up on demand, why should trading capital still require weeks of qualification?
“There have always been two main ways to access more trading power: leverage or prop firms. Both work, but both introduce uncertainty, whether it’s fluctuating financing costs, repeated evaluations, or restrictive trading rules. We built o2 Turbo around a much simpler idea: choose how much trading power you need, deposit how much you’re willing to risk, pay one fixed premium for the time you want, and start trading. No surprises,” said Ruben Amar, Head of Growth at o2.
Unlike perpetual futures, Turbo Accounts don’t rely on variable funding rates that change over time. Unlike traditional prop firms, there are no evaluations to pass, no retries after failure, no profit splits and no waiting period before accessing capital.
Once an account is active, traders execute directly on real spot markets through o2’s fully onchain central limit order book. They keep 100% of the profits they generate, can withdraw realized profits at any time, and receive their posted margin back once the account closes.
That experience is powered by Fuel Network, whose parallel transaction execution enables o2’s onchain order book to deliver execution below 20 milliseconds, while maintaining zero gas fees, 0.00% maker fees and 0.01% taker fees.
Rather than introducing another variation of the prop firm model, Turbo Accounts package trading capital differently. The trader decides how much buying power they need, how long they need it for and how much they’re willing to risk—all upfront.
As crypto trading products continue to evolve, the biggest innovation may not be another form of leverage.
It may simply be making access to capital as immediate as the trades themselves.
