How YIELD
works.

Overview

YIELD is a SOL gacha on Solana. Depositors put SOL into yield packs. Pullers pay to draw packs at random. Every pull pays the depositors, and a bigger pack is drawn less often — so the size of your deposit is the risk you choose.

Deposit a pack

A pack is a SOL deposit. Its weight in the draw is 1 ÷ size: a 10SOL pack is ten times less likely to be pulled than a 1SOL pack. While it waits, every live pack receives an equal shareof each pull's payment, regardless of size.

• Deposits made while a pull is settling are staged and go live when the queue drains.
• Withdrawals are briefly locked while pulls are pending, so nobody can exit after seeing a commit.
• Withdrawing within 6 hours of the deposit costs 1% of the pack. After that, withdrawals are free.
• To add to a pack, open a new one. Packs have a fixed size.
• When your pack is pulled you lose the pack but keep every fee it already earned.
• Opening a pack also holds a little SOL as Solana account rent (about 0.0012), returned in full when you withdraw it or collect a pulled pack.

Pull packs

The price of one pull is the pool's odds-weighted expected value (the harmonic mean of live packs) × 110%. Pull 1, 2, 3, 5, 10 or 20 packs in one payment. Each payment splits into:

1. 0.5% to the Top Depositor pack,
2. the rest, split equally across all live packs. There is no house cut.

In a batch, every pick is priced on its own, against the pool as it stands at that moment — each pick removes a pack, and the next one pays what the pool is worth then. Your pull escrows today's quote as a budget; picks stop if it runs out, and whatever is left comes back as SOL credit. So a batch can never buy the pool for less than it is worth.

Claim: SOL or $YIELD

A $YIELD claim swaps the full pack value through Jupiter at the live price, like any trade. The pools' fees go to their liquidity providers, and larger claims move the price a little more. The claim shows you the quote first and will not settle below it by more than 1%. A batch is swapped in one go. The SOL claim involves no swap.

Unclaimed pulls default to the SOL claim after the claim window; anyone can finalize them. Claim a whole batch in one transaction from the reveal or your portfolio.

Randomness

Two transactions. Your pull pays and commits to a Solana slot about ten slots ahead (roughly four seconds). Once that slot has been produced, anyone — the keeper, or your browser as a fallback — settles the queue, and the program seeds your picks with that slot's bank hash, read straight from the chain. Nobody, including the operator, knows that hash when you commit, and it never changes afterwards, so waiting changes nothing — there is no way to re-roll a result. A small settle fee in your pull price pays whoever settles.

The honest caveat: the one party with any say over a slot's hash is the validator that produces it. And Solana only keeps recent slot hashes for about three minutes: if nobody settled a pull in that time, its outcome can no longer be computed, and the operator can open a refund path for it.

Top Depositor crown

The largest live pack wears the crown and earns 0.5% of every pull on top of its equal share. When a bigger pack goes live it takes the crown at once. When the crown pack is pulled or withdrawn, it passes to the next largest. On a tie, the earlier holder keeps it.

Referrals

Share your link from the portfolio. A referrer is set once, on a puller's first pull, and earns 15% of every SOL claim.

$YIELD emissions

• 50% of supply seeds the $YIELD liquidity pool.
• 15% streams to depositors, weighted by the square root of pack size.
• 15% goes to pullers, split per daily epoch by share of pulls.
• 20% stays in the treasury for future rewards.

Risk

Every investment comes with risk. A pack can be pulled before its fees cover what you put in. A pull can return less than its price. $YIELD has no guaranteed value, and a $YIELD claim is subject to the pool price and the LP fee at claim time. Only deposit what you can afford to lose.
