# Creating Strategies

So you fancy yourself a financial genius? Well, now you can prove it by creating your own investment strategies on DeFihub, and unlike your unsolicited stock tips at family dinners, people might actually pay attention here. When users invest in your masterpiece of financial engineering, you earn a cut of the action. That's right, passive income for your active brain cells.

Think of it as opening your own digital hedge fund, minus the fancy office and obligation to explain your losses to angry investors face-to-face. Your strategy gets showcased in the marketplace alongside the big boys, giving everyone access to your ~~questionable~~, I mean, innovative, investment ideas. Whether you're the next Warren Buffett or just someone who thinks they understand crypto because they once bought "the dip" (before it dipped again), this is your chance to shine.

Each deposit into your creation puts tokens in your pocket while you sleep, shower, or brag about your returns at parties. So channel your inner financial wizard and create a strategy that makes people wonder, "Why didn't I think of that?"

## How to Create a Strategy

{% hint style="info" %}
Creating a strategy is 100% free, but like any blockchain interaction, you'll need some gas[^1] to send the transaction. Make sure your wallet is connected to DeFihub before you start, unless you enjoy the special pain of setting everything up twice.
{% endhint %}

### **1. Name** your strategy

Give it something catchy that screams "financial genius at work." Or just name it after your pet. Whatever floats your boat.

### 2. Select a chain

{% hint style="danger" %}
Changing chains mid-creation will RESET ALL INVESTMENT CONFIGURATION faster than you can say "I should have read the warning."
{% endhint %}

Different chains offer different tokens, so choose wisely between:

* Arbitrum
* BNB Smart Chain (BSC)
* Polygon

### 3. Craft Your Strategy Bio

This is where you convince others you know what you're doing. Write something insightful about market trends and token fundamentals, or just admit you're throwing darts at a chart. Your choice.

{% hint style="info" %}
Pro tip: Complete your investments first so you can actually describe what your strategy does.
{% endhint %}

### 4. Setup your investments

Here's where the magic happens. Mix and match three types of investments until you reach 100% allocation, which you can track with the handy **percentage counter**:

When selecting a product, click the "**Product**" box to open a modal showing all available options. Then set a **percentage**, this is how much of your investors' money goes into each part of your strategy.&#x20;

The "**Product**" and "**Percentage**" fields are highlighted below for those who struggle with basic UI elements (not you, of course).

### 5. Review and Launch

Double-check everything is tight and ready to deploy. Hit the publish button, confirm the transaction in your wallet, and congratulations, you're now officially in the strategy business! Share your creation with friends, followers, or random strangers on the internet and watch as the fees roll in every time someone invests in your brainchild.

Remember, the more people who use your strategy, the more you earn, so maybe it's time to finally put those social media accounts to good use. Your followers can finally put their money where your mouth is, and you can finally put their money in your wallet.
