How It Works
From application to live revenue sharing in as little as 2-4 weeks
Apply to the Listing Council
Submit your protocol for review. Council evaluates product-market fit, team credibility, revenue sustainability, and ideally DefiLlama verification.
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.
Launch & Raise Capital
Community members deposit SUI and receive SupporterPass NFTs representing their share. Capital is staked to earn yield while locked.
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.
Go Live & Share Revenue
Your adapter routes protocol revenue to backers automatically. Backers claim rewards proportional to their share. Everyone wins together.
