One of Solfarm’s key value propositions is leveraged yield farming. Like normal yield farming, leveraged yield farming has a borrower and a lender, who deposit their assets into the lending pool to earn a variable deposit rate with automatically compounding interest. That way, yield farmers can increase their positions and earn even higher annualized yield, although they are still subject to smart contract and liquidation risks. Solfarm liquidates at a 85% loan-to-value ratio. At that point, the position will be forcibly closed and the collateral will be returned after the loan has been settled and the liquidation bounty has been paid.

Leveraged yield farming also bears a directional risk. A farmer that supplies USDC and borrows RAY to farm in the RAY-USDC liquidity pool is effectively short on RAY. A raising price of the asset will result in RAY being sold from the pool and the borrower is subject to impermanent loss. If the position remains unmanaged, this can lead to liquidation.

Solfarm offers low vault fees, with the following structures provided to farmers:

Raydium Vault Fees

• Controller fee: 0.1%
• Platform Fee: 1.4%
• Vault Fees: 0.0%
• No deposit/withdrawal fees

SABER Vault Fees

• Controller fee: 0.1%
• Platform Fee: 1.4%
• Vault Fees: 0.0%
• No deposit/withdrawal fees

TULIP has a total supply of 10 million. Token supply is split in the following ratios:

Team - 20%

Advisors - 2%

Treasury - 12%

Liquidity Provision - 5%

Strategic & Growth 12%

Liquidity Mining/Ecosystem 48%

All team tokens are vested on-chain with a cliff of six months and three-year linear vesting, with advisor tokens subject to similar vesting periods. The treasury bootstrap will be used for future protocol upkeep and possible protocol incentives, such as buy back and burns. Liquidity provision will be reserved for AMM liquidity if necessary and possible Fusion pool rewards.

Solfarm is the first yield farm set up on the Solana blockchain. Solana is well-known for its fast transaction times and minuscule transaction fees, making it one of the most popular blockchains to rival Ethereum.

Solana is a layer one blockchain with a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism with partial Byzantine Fault Tolerance. It has 200 nodes operating worldwide that can, at their peak, process up to 50,000 transactions per second. Solana performs a set of coordinated optimizations to achieve such impressive performance and processes transactions in a multi-threaded way, which sets it apart from slower blockchains.
