1. Asset Onboarding & Tokenization
Merchant Registration: E‑shops join the PST network by registering on‑chain and integrating with revenue tracking (e.g., from Amazon, Shopify, Airwallex). Each merchant’s performance is transparently recorded to inform yield distributions.
Performance-Linked Stake: At listing, merchants are required to lock 15% of their total market capitalization as a . This locked amount is held in the Automated Liquidity Assurance Reserve () and is gradually unlocked in installments as the merchant achieves pre‑defined revenue targets. This mechanism not only secures the merchant’s commitment but also acts as a credit enhancement tool for stakers.
2. Funding & Liquidity Pool Structure
Pooled Staking Model: Investors (stakers) contribute PST tokens to the platform’s AMM liquidity pool. Unlike traditional financing, these funds are not allocated directly to any merchant; rather, they are managed algorithmically by smart contracts. This structure protects investor capital by eliminating direct exposure to merchant operations while still allowing stakers to benefit from the underlying e‑shop cashflows.
Backing: The funds locked via the Performance‑Linked Stake, combined with chain partner incentives and stablecoin incentives (e.g., rewards in WUSD), form the Automated Liquidity Assurance Reserve (). ensures that the most conservative investment tier—the Super Senior Tranche—receives a fixed yield of at least 11% annually, thereby underpinning investor confidence with a robust yield floor.
3. Yield Generation & Distribution
Multi-Source Yield: Staking rewards are generated through three primary channels:
Trading Activity: Swap fees from on‑chain trading contribute to the yield.
NAV Growth: As the value of the pooled assets appreciates, stakers share in this upside.
Incentives: Bonus rewards from —including chain and stablecoin (WUSD) incentives, plus gradual unlocking of merchant Performance‑Linked Stakes—boost overall yields.
Structure: The staking pool is segmented into 2 risk tiers:
Senior : Offers a fixed minimum yield of 11% per annum, guaranteed by .
Junior : Exposes stakers to higher risk in exchange for variable, potentially higher returns, and enhanced governance rewards.
Redemption & Exit: Standard unstaking is available after the lock-up period. To deter short‑term dividend farming, early unstaking (within one week) incurs an urgent liquidation fee of 20% on the unstaked amount.
4. The Business Hook
By automating revenue capture and aligning incentives through and the Performance‑Linked Stake, PST redefines asset financing. It replaces traditional, opaque financing models with a fully transparent, decentralized process that ensures robust yield—even in volatile market conditions—while offering liquidity and ease of exit on decentralized exchanges.
