Today’s the day: we’ve just launched CAI, the Colony Avalanche Index.

You can now invest in CAI through Colony’s platform and the Phuture app.

Both platforms automatically direct trades to the best rates for you to BUY or MINT, SELL or REDEEM.

CAI is also available through Trader Joe. (CAI-AVAX pool)

  • Token address: 0x48f88A3fE843ccb0b5003e70B4192c1d7448bEf0

At launch, we encourage users to invest through our platforms in order to acquire $CAI at its true value, as Trader Joe’s price may experience some volatility when the trading pool goes live.

Get exposure to the entire 🔺 Avalanche ecosystem’s growth through one single token: $CAI

Brought to you by Colony and Phuture, CAI is the benchmark index for investors wanting to get exposure to the Avalanche ecosystem.

  • It is composed of the native token (AVAX) and the most prominent projects in the ecosystem.
  • The index improves returns for investors by generating yield on the underlying assets, thanks to Yield Yak.
  • The index assets are rigorously selected and weighted to spread the risk and volatility in proportion to their market capitalization.

A straightforward hands-off passive investment strategy, CAI is destined to be the smartest way to invest in the Avalanche ecosystem through one single token. We believe it is time for investors bullish on Avalanche to invest in a high-performing, on-chain product that brings returns without adding complexity.

CAI’s constituents at launch and the rebalancing methodology

Focusing on liquidity, token utility and asset safety, CAI will always represent the top assets on Avalanche. The index rebalancing will occur monthly — rotating in and out assets based on strategic requirements.

At launch, CAI will be composed of Avalanche’s native token and some of the most prominent projects in the ecosystem:

  • AVAX (Avalanche): Avalanche’s native token.
  • JOE (Trader Joe): a one-stop-shop decentralized trading platform native to the Avalanche blockchain.
  • QI (BENQI): a decentralized liquidity market protocol on Avalanche, enabling users to lend, borrow, and earn interest with their assets.

If new assets meet CAI’s strategic requirements, they will be included in the index during the following rebalancing event. Make sure you follow @cai_index on Twitter to learn the announcements first hand!

Reasons to invest in CAI

  • All-rounded exposure to Avalanche 🔺:

CAI provides exposure to AVAX, as well as the Avalanche application layer, ensuring investors benefit from growth in the ecosystem as a whole.

A percentage of the tokens are allocated to unlock passive yield, so investors can benefit from additional returns on their investment.

  • Robust methodology to safeguard funds:

The index strategy is built to protect investors’ funds, by focusing on asset liquidity, safety and token utility.

  • The leading Avalanche index:

CAI maintains deep liquidity so investors can enter and exit seamlessly. It is the largest Avalanche index, trusted by the top organizations in the Avalanche ecosystem.

The Avalanche network is a mere 22 months old, but it is already the third largest DeFi ecosystem by TVL. The ecosystem’s eye-popping growth over this period is the result of a shrewd and aggressive scaling strategy with continuous DeFi innovations. Best part? Avalanche is just getting started and it’s never too late to be early. You can be part of its rapid growth and have exposure to the ecosystem’s most prominent projects without complexity nor hassle thanks to the Colony Avalanche Index, CAI.
