HOLD DOLLARS
WITH YOUR ETH
WITHOUT BLOWUPS

Deposit ETH. Get two tokens back. One stays steady. One tracks the upside.

Together they always equal what you put in. The math protects you. Nothing can liquidate you.

You decide when to cash out.

HOW IT WORKS

SIMPLE

Step 1. You put 1 ETH in. You get a P token and an N token. Each one is a claim on part of that ETH later.

Step 2. Time passes. You can hold both, sell one, or trade them. P holds value steady. N moves with price.

Step 3. On a scheduled date, the price is checked. You claim your share of the locked ETH. P + N always add up to what was deposited. There is no point where the protocol owes more than it has.

WHAT YOU GIVE UP

Honest about the trade. Here's the cost of removing liquidations.

01

NOT EXACTLY $1

P drifts a small amount per year. It tracks the dollar, but it's not a peg. Think of it as "close to" the dollar, not "exactly" the dollar.

02

YOU MIGHT REBALANCE

If ETH moves a lot, you may want to roll your position into a different P to keep your dollar exposure tight. Optional. You decide.

03

PAYOUT TAKES TIME

The final claim happens on a scheduled date, not instantly. You can always swap or combine back to ETH on the AMM before then.
