Introducing the PONY Index

Today, DeFi users face three major challenges that prevent them from maximizing returns:

  1. Yield sources are spread out and hard to find.
  2. There’s rampant uncertainty around the best sources of stablecoin yield.
  3. Most users find navigating multiple chains too complex.

Fortunately, a solution is imminent, as the PONY Index solves these problems and enables everyone in the world to maximize their stablecoin yields.

How does $PONY work?

Designed by the renowned DeFi team at Scalara (a division of DeFi Pulse), the PONY Index holds a basket of stablecoin vault tokens from leading strategies on Fantom, Avalanche, and Polygon — each of which are meticulously curated to meet the standards of the team’s rules-based methodology.

As the PONY Index aggregates the best omni-chain yields in DeFi, $PONY token holders — whether individual investors or DAO Treasury managers — are empowered to benefit from one-click exposure to generate unbeatable passive income, free from impermanent loss.

Initial Index Composition

Data as of April 26, 2022

The PONY Index enables users to hold a single ERC-20 token ($PONY) and gain access to the highest performing stable coin vault strategies from all of DeFi.

Initiating The First ‘Laser DAO’

Pony Finance is a ‘laser DAO,’ a first-of-its-kind DAO structure focused on one thing and one thing only, bringing users the best stablecoin yields in all of DeFi. Initially the DAO will focus on the following core activities:

  1. Developing and executing product marketing for $PONY
  2. Pursuing D2D sales for $PONY
  3. DAO Treasury outreach
  4. Integrating the PONY Index across the DeFi ecosystem
  5. Managing product liquidity
  6. Generating awareness around the PONY Index

We are actively onboarding contributors to help lead our engagement, engineering, and product design verticals.

Tokenomics and Incentives

The Pony Index charges a 0.35% streaming fee. 100% of the streaming fee accrues to the PonyDAO treasury. As the Pony Index grows and controls more and more assets, the amount of fees collected by the treasury will increase as well.

We will be launching the Pony Index with three months of liquidity mining to bootstrap community ownership of the PonyDAO token and to grow Pony Index liquidity.
