PROTOCOL GUIDE

Open creation.
Explicit rules.

Seal Finance turns verified Stock Tokens into fixed-unit ETF shares. Contracts are the source of truth; the website helps people inspect and interact with those rules.

Core contract addresses

These public addresses are loaded from the active environment configuration. Always verify the network badge and the address on the Robinhood Chain explorer before interacting with a contract.

ETF lifecycle

01DraftCreator can edit the basket→02FundingFirst mint freezes config→03GraduatedTransfers permanently open

Anyone can create an ETF without a bond using 2–10 assets from the verified registry. Before the first mint it is a draft. The first mint freezes components, order and base units. Users can still mint or redeem while the ETF raises its graduation AUM.

Fixed component units

The creation wizard uses a $100 target only once to convert initial percentages into component quantities. Those fixed units define every later mint and redemption quantity. Market prices change the portfolio value of one share, but never recalculate its component quantities.

Chainlink graduation

Any wallet can graduate a funding ETF when its share liabilities reach the threshold locked at creation, initially $200 by default, using healthy Chainlink feeds and an available ticker. Governance changes affect only future ETFs. Vault donations are excluded. Feed failure delays graduation only—it never changes fixed-unit settlement or blocks redemption.

Oracle scope is deliberately narrow

Chainlink checks graduation AUM. Mint and redeem always calculate the exact component quantities from fixed units.

Transparent transaction fees

0.10%Mint fee0.10%Redemption fee

The one-time 0.0005 ETH creation fee belongs entirely to the protocol. Mint and redemption fees are charged in each basket asset and allocated 30% to the protocol and 70% to the ETF creator.

Provisional tickers

Funding ETFs may share the same provisional ticker. The contract address is their unique identity. The first eligible ETF to graduate claims its normalized ticker permanently. A losing ETF remains redeemable and its creator can rename the ticker before retrying graduation.

Redemption comes first

Burn ETF shares to receive every component in its fixed proportion, less the constant 0.10% redemption fee. There is no seven-day penalty and no SEAL or veSEAL requirement. Redemption remains open before graduation and during a mint pause or wind-down, subject to underlying token transfers functioning.

Risks & legal

Seal Finance is experimental software. Review these risks before creating an ETF, minting shares or redeeming a basket.

01

Market risk

Component values can rise or fall. Fixed units do not guarantee stable value or constant economic weights.

02

Smart contract risk

Code can contain defects. Verify contract addresses through official Seal Finance channels and never risk funds you cannot afford to lose.

03

Underlying asset risk

Tokenized stocks can be restricted, paused or unavailable in some jurisdictions. A failed component transfer can temporarily prevent atomic redemption.

04

Oracle and graduation risk

Stale feeds, Sequencer downtime or an oracle pause can delay graduation. Oracle status does not determine mint or redemption quantities.

05

Transaction fee risk

Mint and redemption each charge 0.10% in every basket asset, so the amount paid or received differs from the gross fixed-unit basket.

06

Ticker identity risk

Pre-graduation tickers are provisional and may duplicate. Always identify an ETF by its network and contract address.

07

Creator and governance risk

ETF creators receive 70% of fees. A protocol Safe controls asset registration and emergency states, but cannot withdraw ETF reserves.
