Why Tide?
A better way to fund projects and earn rewards
Core Concepts
The building blocks of Tide Protocol
Backers
Contribute SUI, receive a transferable SupporterPass NFT, and claim rewards from real protocol revenue.
Issuers
Receive capital on a fixed schedule and route a percentage of protocol revenue to backers.
SupporterPass
Your economic position as an NFT. Transferable, tradeable, and usable as loan collateral.
Treasury
Protocol fee collection (1% raise fee, 20% of staking rewards) with transparent, on-chain accounting.
How Capital Flows
A transparent, deterministic system
Capital In
Backers deposit SUI, receive SupporterPass NFT
Deterministic Release
Capital released to issuer on fixed schedule
Rewards Flow
Revenue + staking yields → backers claim anytime
Reward Sources
Earn from real protocol activity
Protocol Revenue
A fixed percentage of real protocol fees is routed on-chain to backers. For FAITH, this is 10% of all protocol fees.
Staking Yield
While capital is locked, it earns native Sui staking rewards. 80% goes to backers, 20% to treasury.
Revenue Router
Enforceable on-chain revenue sharing
Adapter Pattern
Protocols integrate via thin adapter contracts. Each protocol has its own router that holds the routing authorization.
Non-Bypassable
Revenue routing is enforced at the smart contract level. No upgrades or admin actions can bypass the routing.
Automatic Harvesting
Keepers periodically harvest staking rewards. 80% goes to backers, 20% to treasury. Fully automated.
How FAITH Routes Revenue
When FAITH collects gameplay fees, the FaithRouter adapter calculates 10% and deposits it directly to the Tide RewardVault. This happens atomically in the same transaction — no delay, no manual steps, no trust required. The adapter tracks lifetime revenue for full transparency.
Trade SupporterPass
A yield-aware marketplace
Why Tide Marketplace?
Unlike generic NFT marketplaces, Tide understands SupporterPass economics. Buyers can see exactly what they're getting:
- Share percentage of the listing
- Pending claimable rewards
- Historical earnings (total_claimed)
- Original backer provenance
- Pass number (collectibility)
Fee Structure
Fees go to the Tide TreasuryVault for protocol sustainability.
List Your Pass
Set any price (min 0.1 SUI). Pass is held in escrow until sold or delisted.
Buyers Browse
Full yield data visible. Buyers know exactly what they're purchasing.
Atomic Trade
Single transaction: buyer pays, seller receives 95%, pass transfers. Done.
Self-Paying Loans
Borrow against your pass, let rewards repay
Loan Parameters
How It Works
Conservative LTV: Borrow up to 50% of your pass value. Large buffer protects against liquidation.
Keeper Model: Anyone can trigger reward harvesting. Keepers earn 0.1% tip. Fully permissionless.
Insurance Fund: 20% of loan fees go to insurance. Covers edge cases and black swan events.
Example: Self-Paying Loan
Alice deposits a SupporterPass (100 SUI collateral) → borrows 50 SUI → pays 0.5 SUI origination fee → receives 49.5 SUI. Over 6 months, her pass earns ~60 SUI in rewards. Keepers harvest periodically, paying down the loan automatically. Loan is repaid, excess rewards go to Alice, and she withdraws her pass. Zero manual payments required.
