Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use Viribus Bots?

Unlike other Arbitraging solutions out there of which many are scams/Ponzi’s, Viribus does not operate a token, nor does Viribus pool funds from a collective and trade.

Viribus operates from within the Agnes Application as a bolt-on solution, where you pay for an annual license to add-on the bot into your application in INV/ENIX, this is on top of the annual subscription for Agnes which is in INV/ENIX.

How do I start my Viribus bot?

Once your fees have been collected for first Agnes, then for Viribus, the application will become open to you, at which point your bot will be allocated space in the instance for specific exchanges, you enter your API keys for those exchanges, alongside your Viribus API key and then simply press start.

Does Viribus / Enix have access to manage my funds?

No, the Trading Bot Element is integrated into your phone instance/Web App Instance and utilises your API keys for your hot-wallets on the exchange to trade your funds at your control, Viribus/Enix do not in any capacity get involved in managing your funds.

So you are not managing our funds, do you have access to my funds?

Programmatically to connect to the exchanges through the Bot Instance the device would have access to the funds to trade them back and forth, Viribus/Enix, however, would not have decrypted access but would be aware that you are a Viribus Bot User, outside of the Zero-knowledge Protocol set up for managing the Keys. However, as always we would suggest only keeping the funds you wish to trade in your exchange hot-wallets and moving them if you wish to cease trading.

So you are supplying a trading bot that we control?

Exactly, this is where we see an opening, being a software supplier but not actively being involved in the process for the obvious reasons: security, and liability, as an organisation we have built the bots to be unique to each user and trade based on their circumstances, from their devices without Viribus or Enix being actively involved.

What if the Markets Crash?

An automated trading bot is tasked with accumulating a currency, i.e USDT, naturally, USDT has its own price changes when compared to other currencies, as such it would be wise to follow automated instructions or notifications, should the systems determine that the Markets might hit a point of devaluation, and stable-coin your accounts, we are looking at automating this across the exchanges via the bots as part of their process, however, this is sometimes programmatically impossible on some exchanges.

What sort of growth should I have?

No Arbitraging bot organisation can guarantee a % daily, monthly or yearly, the Bots main role is to accumulate currency, an organisation that guarantee’s a % is usually found out to be a scam, bots could make 1% today, 4% tomorrow and -2% the following the day, the aim of the bot is to continue to accumulate the currency (i.e USDT) which you can then manually take from your exchange to one exchange and convert into a currency of choice.

So I manage my own funds on my exchanges, the bot turns on and off at my choice?

Exactly, the bot is operated by you from your device (mobile), your funds are in your exchanges.

What are the fees?

Agnes ( has an annual fee of 80 Pounds in INV/Enix, Viribus has a license key valid annually on purchase in INV, the Prices are currently set at around 200 Pounds (Enix/INV) for Viribus. Don’t forget to consider funds in your exchange hot-wallets for trading.

Do we need to whitelist Viribus with the various exchanges?

No, but you will need to have completed KYC with the exchanges likely and apply for API keys.

Viribus utilises the keys from your device to interact with, but as far as they will be concerned it will be a verified request coming from your device when trading with the API keys being the verification.

On every exchange will we need to individually whitelist the BTC or ETH etc. wallet addresses of the other exchanges trading back and forth?

Yes, this is because the company does not take the funds, so injecting the specific wallet will make certain that the funds are pushed by the bot(s) into their respective correct wallet (queries and pushes).

If this was a centralised i.e bot trading all funds for all users as one system and actually having access to the funds then this would not be required, as it is processing through your verified device, unfortunately, this means you need to inject individually so as to make certain the funds are pushed to the right address otherwise the bot would stall with nowhere to convert-deposit the funds to.

Basically we’ve made the fund dynamic to you, your API keys do not provide the wallet addresses or information bar what is requested in the API call, so the addresses fill in the blanks, storing them in the application, then parses them through to the bot as it is processing from your device to make the connection (trade) from A to B, if we collected and processed for all, it would make it a vulnerability our end, having them injected in your application means that ultimately no computer / 3rd party has to have the ability to either manipulate or be vulnerable.

Will the bots be configured to work with a minimum or a maximum number of cryptocurrencies? Or will Viribus be set to only trade and accumulate say one currency at a time? I’m curious as to whether we’ll need a wide range of cryptos on the various exchanges or if we can get by on just one, for example, ETH? Just wondering which deposit and withdrawal crypto wallets to create? Maybe just a general top 5?

Each bot works differently, some are specific to specific currencies, others are reactionary to the market based on Agnes projections.

Will we have to disable G2FA on the various exchanges in order for Viribus to trade?

API keys don’t require UX access, the API keys go via a different route, so your security settings should remain unaffected.

Data Usage Expectations for the Mobile/Android device?

We’d imagine something working of Wifi should be fine, to be honest…

You can also tether your phone to your main phone as such have the connectivity to operate if you are using an android device exclusively for Viribus.

Exchange Fees?

Viribus nor Enix (Agnes) set exchange fees for trades, as the bot works with your API keys and your accounts with your very specific exchanges and relationship with the said exchange, this would entitle you to the relevant rate your relationship with the exchange supplies you with. We do however list the standard rates in the app so you are aware of the standard rates, these are incorporated into the bots various trading strategies as in a target price on exit to be above the standard cost of the fees, if you have a better fee structure then the margin would be higher for the return. Viribus or Invacio (Agnes) does not charge fee’s for trading, merely the annual subscription for the license of the bot API Key for your account.

Agnes is predominately Traditional Markets, yet Viribus is Crypto — How?

Yes, it is true that Agnes is geared to traditionally regulated markets as a provider of indicators on where the stocks, commodities, forex or the like are heading based on projections from the use of multi-agent artificial intelligence, however, there is a part of Agnes which is Crypto, the systems that are used in Agnes are expensive to operate due to the power consumption of GPU’s which is covered in the Viribus annual fee allowing Viribus to use compute power and take into account AI Analysis systems to project intra-day, or rather intra-minute where a route to take into account for the Viribus bot’s strategy.

In essence, the same systems that power Agnes and achieve such success in projecting the markets are operated on a much more direct setup via API (on-demand compute) to give indicators to Viribus bots to take into account for their strategies.

Will all exchange(s) need their details filled in or can I pick and choose?

The logic flow of the bot(s) requires all to be filled out to compute, we would suggest a secondary account for each and only have funds in you are trading.

Do the API keys need to have withdrawal facilities allowed?

Yes as part of the bots multi-exchange process.

Do I need to load funds on all accounts?

Ideally, you’d want more than the cost of the bot, we’re not entirely sure the low point (still testing) We are testing on 5k, with each bot having about 1k spread (we have other bots not entered production/full testing yet).
