Overview
Stratum Protocol brings institutional-grade index investing to decentralized finance on Solana — enabling anyone to gain diversified crypto exposure through a single token.
The Problem
Cryptocurrency markets offer extraordinary opportunities, but navigating them remains overwhelmingly complex. Individual investors face a daunting landscape of thousands of tokens, each with unique risk profiles, liquidity characteristics, and technological underpinnings. Constructing a well-diversified portfolio requires constant monitoring, frequent rebalancing, deep market knowledge, and significant capital to spread across dozens of positions.
Traditional finance solved this problem decades ago with index funds — the S&P 500, NASDAQ-100, and FTSE 100 allow investors to buy the entire market in a single transaction. Yet crypto has lacked a trustless, on-chain equivalent that provides true diversification without custodial risk, bridge vulnerabilities, or opaque fund management.
Existing crypto index products suffer from critical limitations:
- Custodial risk — Most index products require trusting a centralized entity with your funds
- High fees — Traditional crypto funds charge 2-3% management fees annually
- Limited coverage — Most products only track 10-20 assets, missing the long tail of crypto value
- Cross-chain complexity — Physical replication requires bridging assets across chains, introducing systemic risk
- Slow rebalancing — Weekly or monthly rebalancing leads to tracking errors and stale compositions
The Solution
Stratum Protocol introduces synthetic, oracle-verified index tokens on Solana — a fundamentally new approach to crypto index investing. Instead of physically holding hundreds of underlying tokens, Stratum uses a USDC-collateralized vault combined with Pyth Network oracle price feeds to synthetically track the performance of up to 500 crypto assets in a single token.
This architecture eliminates bridge risk, removes DEX slippage from rebalancing, and enables daily reconstitution of index compositions — all while maintaining full transparency and trustless operation through Solana smart contracts.

FAQ
What is a Launch Pool and how does it work?
+
- A specific quantity of tokens is allocated to the Launch Pool contract. The Launch Pool will remain open for a set period of time.
- While the Launch Pool contract remains open, users can deposit SOL into it or withdraw their SOL from it.
- When the Launch Pool ends, tokens are distributed proportionally based on each user's share of the total deposits.
- There will also be an early deposit multiplier to reward early participation and a scaling withdrawal penalty to disincentivize late withdrawals.
- Deposits made during the first 24 hours of the Launch Pool will receive a 25% bonus multiplier (e.g., 1 SOL will be treated as 1.25 SOL).
- After 24 hours through hour 36, the bonus multiplier will decrease from 25% down to 0% bonus.
- Withdrawals made after hour 36 will incur a penalty fee. The penalty starts at 0% and increases incrementally to a maximum of 25% for withdrawals made during hour 48 (e.g., if you want to withdraw 1 SOL during the 48th hour, you will need to pay a 0.25 SOL penalty).
- Refunds: If the sale goal is not met, buyers will be able to claim a refund based on what they've deposited into the launch pool.
How will I know how many tokens I will receive?
+
After the Launch Pool ends, if the graduation minimum is met, all participants will see their pro rata share of tokens based on the total amounts deposited factoring in any early deposit multipliers.
What happens if the graduation minimum isn't met?
+
If at the end of the Launch Pool the total deposits do not exceed the graduation minimum, all participants who made deposits will be able to claim back their deposit. Connect your wallet to claim back your deposit (minus network and protocol fees).
How will I claim the tokens I purchase?
+
If the graduation minimum was met, all purchasers will be able to claim their share of tokens after the Launch Pool ends. Connect your wallet to claim your purchased tokens.
How is liquidity locked?
+
Liquidity is locked for a period of time to protect traders and prevent rug pulls. Lock schedules differ by token type:
- Project tokens - Liquidity is locked for 1 year with quarterly unlocks.
Is there a lock-up for tokens purchased in the Launch Pool?
+
No lock-up for tokens purchased in the Launch Pool.
What fees will I be charged to participate in the Launch Pool?
+
All network fees and protocol fees will be displayed in the transaction details. These are fees charged by third-parties. Please review all transaction details closely.
