Raise capital. Share revenue. Build community.

Tide Protocol enables crypto projects to raise non-dilutive capital from the community and reward backers with ongoing protocol revenue. No tokens. No equity. Just aligned incentives.

Who Should Apply?

Tide is for established protocols with real traction. We prioritize quality over quantity.

Product-Market Fit

Required

Your protocol should have active users, real usage, and demonstrated demand. We're looking for projects that have found their audience.

Sustainable Revenue

Required

You must generate real, on-chain revenue from protocol fees. This revenue is what gets shared with backers.

DefiLlama Listed

Preferred

Protocols listed on DefiLlama have verified, transparent data. This builds trust with potential backers.

Team Credibility

Required

Doxxed or pseudonymous teams with a track record. We verify team background as part of the council review.

Why List on Tide?

A new model for protocol funding that aligns everyone's interests

Non-Dilutive Capital

Raise funds without giving up equity or issuing tokens. Keep full control of your project.

Aligned Community

Backers become advocates. Their returns depend on your success, creating natural alignment.

Staking Yield

Capital is staked on Sui while locked, generating additional yield (80% to backers, 20% to Tide).

Transparent & Audited

Open-source Move contracts. Deterministic release schedules. No trust required.

Flexible Schedules

Design your capital release schedule. Monthly, quarterly, or milestone-based.

Simple Integration

Use our adapter template. Deploy in days, not months. We provide full support.

How It Works

From application to live revenue sharing in as little as 2-4 weeks

01

Apply to the Listing Council

Submit your protocol for review. Council evaluates product-market fit, team credibility, revenue sustainability, and ideally DefiLlama verification.

02

Configure Your Listing

Work with the council to set your raise target, capital release schedule, and revenue share percentage. Council creates your on-chain listing.

03

Launch & Raise Capital

Community members deposit SUI and receive SupporterPass NFTs representing their share. Capital is staked to earn yield while locked.

04

Build & Submit Your Adapter

Fork our adapter template, customize for your protocol, and submit a PR to the Tide repository. We review and help you deploy.

05

Go Live & Share Revenue

Your adapter routes protocol revenue to backers automatically. Backers claim rewards proportional to their share. Everyone wins together.

Simple Architecture

Your protocol never touches Tide Core directly. The adapter handles all integration logic, making upgrades easy and keeping your codebase clean.
