What is QFinance

QFinance is a decentralized protocol enabling users to create and join Ethereum-based investment pools in a trustless, decentralized manner. Each pool consists of Ethereum tokens/assets chosen by the pool creator and members.

How does it work

A QFinance pool is created with a breakdown of assets that represent the portfolio. When new ETH is deposited to the pool, the pool will acquire the tokens as determined by their breakdown and hold them on the user's behalf. At any time, a user may call the withdraw function on the contract to retrieve some or all of their principal.

Public or Private Pools

Pools can be public or private. Private pools are quite simple - only the user who creates the pool may deposit and withdraw from it. The construction and function of these pools is straightforward.

For public pools, there is added complexity to ensure users are fairly compensated for the amount of ETH deposited and the growth (or loss) of value over time. That is, users' profits and losses are calculated based on when they deposited and when they withdrew the funds accordingly, as it should.

Stake Deposit Tokens to earn QFI

As part of the calculation of public pool ownership, an ERC20 token is returned to the user that represents their ownership stake in the overall pool. The pool will grow as new participants join, and existing participants will have a smaller share of a larger pool, equaling out the value. Deposit tokens can be staked to earn QFI, a reward and governance token used by QFinance. Additionally, network participants are free to set up their own staking systems and rewards to provide users an incentive to join their pool.
