For DePIN Deployers

Learn how to tokenize your DePIN infrastructure

Getting Started

1

Connect any Solana wallet

2

Click Create Distribution ↓

3

Create a shard token

Fill out the distribution information form, connect the associated devices or clusters with our API for historical reward calculation.

4

Deposit the Shard token into the contract

Approve the transactions (token mint, swap contract deploy).

5

Periodically deposit Airdrop Tokens

The contracts will handle distribution at automated periods.

Whitelist Required

Distribution events can be created only if you're whitelisted, and onboarding will be progressively rolled out in the coming months.

To learn more about the process, or to apply for a whitelist, please e-mail contact@fractals.finance.

How Distribution Works

When the DePIN Deployer deposits the emission tokens to the Distribution Stream vault, the Fractals protocol splits the deposit among Shard holders pro-rata.

Streaming continues until the DePIN Deployer pauses, ends, or the predefined duration elapses.

Claiming Proceeds

Shard holders can withdraw their accumulated emission tokens at any time. Accounting is done fully on-chain and guarantees token rewards to be calculated proportionally to their shard stake.

Example Distribution

Let's use an example distribution event when the deployer tokenizes their Helium device. Each time the deployer distributes the rewards (for instance, once a week), the distribution calculations would look like:

Distributed AmountUserShards Owned% OwnershipTokens Received
1000Bob2020 %200 HNT
Alice8080 %800 HNT

Key Benefits

  • Automated Distribution: Smart contracts handle all calculations and payments
  • Transparent Accounting: All transactions are recorded on-chain
  • Proportional Rewards: Shard holders receive tokens based on their exact ownership percentage
  • Flexible Timing: Deployers can distribute rewards on their own schedule

How to Create a Shard

Fill out the shard token information like supply, name, image, etc (and mint the token)

Shard token creation form

After finalizing the details, you will be prompted to create the token in your wallet.

Wallet confirmation for token creation

Confirm the transaction in the wallet to mint the shard tokens

Token appears in SPL token list

After confirming the transaction, it will appear in the SPL token list
