By Arka.fund
Offers a non‑custodial Soroban protocol that lets portfolio managers launch automated, multi‑asset funds (Arkas) and retail users invest with a single token.
Arka.fund turns Stellar into a venue for professional‑grade, on‑chain portfolio management:
One‑click Fund Creation – managers configure fees, asset whitelist, rebalance cadence, and deposit/withdrawal caps.
Atomic Rebalancing Router – executes best‑path, multi‑hop swaps across Aquarius, SoroSwap, Balanced AMM, and Blend lending adapter while respecting slippage limits.
Dual Coverage System – managers may lock part of their vault as insurance, while users can stake assets in a community coverage fund earning platform‑token yield to backstop catastrophic losses.
DAO Governance – powered by Soroban Governor & Timelock; token‑holders vote on asset listings, upgrades, and fee schedules.
Manager Tier Program – consistently profitable strategies unlock higher AUM ceilings and a greater share of protocol revenue.
Each feature is implemented with Soroban contracts (Factory, Arka, Router, Adapters, Governor, Timelock) and emits on‑chain events for full transparency.
