Methodology mvp-2026-09-02.1

Revenue is measured.
Risk is gated.

The displayed net APR is a simulation, not a yield promise. It subtracts a deliberately conservative volatility penalty and operating reserve from observed gross fees.

01

Canonical universe

Only active Robinhood Chain Stock Token contracts from the issuer registry are matched.

02

High volume

A pool needs at least $100k of observed 30-day USDG-side swap volume.

03

Low—not empty—liquidity

Median estimated TVL must fall between $10k and $1m.

04

Stable reference

At least seven daily Chainlink closes and no more than 45% annualized realized volatility.

05

Oracle health

Invalid, non-positive, paused, or stale rounds reject a pool. Missing uptime protection blocks execution.

06

Bounded allocation

Four pools initially, capacity-based scaling to eight, 20% per pool, 80% deployed, and a 30-minute rebalance cooldown.
