Layer 1: Premium User Access
To access pools with Auto-Hedge activated, users pay 200,000 $SHEDGE as a one-time premium upgrade, converting their account to Premium status. Only Premium Users can deposit into pools where Auto-Hedge is enabled. Standard users can still use SolHedge for Auto-Range and Auto-Compound, but the hedge layer remains locked. The payment is non-refundable and creates direct, usage-driven demand tied to product adoption.Layer 2: Market Making Service Access
SolHedge offers a Market Maker (MM) service for Solana tokens that have already launched, paid for in $SHEDGE, with no lockup required.Tier 1: Base
Standard MM access and market spreads.
Tier 2: Pro
Tighter spreads and priority rebalancing.
Tier 3: Institutional
Custom strategy, dedicated support, and the tightest spreads.
Layer 3: Buyback From MM Fees
10% of all fees generated by SolHedge MM activity are automatically used to buy back $SHEDGE from the open market. Of that 10%:- 50% is burned permanently, creating deflationary pressure
- 50% goes to the protocol treasury for operational sustainability
Why This Model Works
Usage-driven demand
Demand is tied to real product adoption, not speculation.
Compounding utility
Every new MM client means more $SHEDGE bought as a service fee.
Constant buy pressure
Fee-in-$SHEDGE creates real demand from real MM revenue.
Deflationary loop
Buyback and burn ties supply reduction directly to protocol volume.
