What is NashPoint?

NashPoint is an institutional-grade asset management protocol that enables sophisticated capital deployment in digital markets. It allows asset managers to create and manage onchain investment strategies with professional-grade infrastructure and risk management tools.

How does NashPoint work?

NashPoint operates through a network of managed pools, each representing a professionally managed investment strategy. Asset managers can deploy capital across different onchain opportunities while maintaining institutional standards for pricing, liquidity management, and reporting.

Is NashPoint safe to use?

While NashPoint employs smart contracts, it's important to note that our smart contracts have been thoroughly audited. The reports are viewable in our Audit section. You can read more about this in the [Security Section]. As with any DeFi project, users should understand and evaluate the associated risks.

What types of assets can I invest in through NashPoint?

NashPoint nodes can invest in various assets, including DeFi protocols, Real World Assets (RWAs), yield-generating strategies, and stablecoins. The specific assets held will depend on the strategy of each node's operator.

How do withdrawals work?

Withdrawals in NashPoint follow the ERC-7540 standard for asynchronous withdrawals. You must submit a withdrawal request, which will be processed based on the node's liquidity and the asset manager's strategy.

How do I create a node on NashPoint?

You can create a node using the NodeFactory contract. You'll need to specify parameters such as the deposit asset, node name and symbol, rebalancer address, and various settings related to swing pricing and asset allocation.

What is a rebalancer, and how do I set one?

The rebalancer component executes asset management functions on demand, including investing in assets and processing withdrawals. When creating your node, you set the rebalancer address, and you can update it later if needed. The rebalancer can be a professional market maker, a publicly callable smart, contract or a privately run off-chain service. Node managers can add as many rebalancers as they want.

How do I manage the assets in my node?

You can add and manage your node's assets (called components) using functions like `addComponent()`. You'll need to specify target allocation ratios for each component. The rebalancer can then use functions like `investInSyncVault()` and `investInAsyncVault()` to allocate funds.

What's the difference between synchronous and asynchronous assets?

Synchronous assets (following ERC-4626) allow for immediate deposits and withdrawals. Asynchronous assets (following ERC-7540) have a delay in processing deposits and withdrawals, typically used for less liquid investments.

What blockchain does NashPoint operate on?

NashPoint is designed to operate on Ethereum-compatible networks. The current focus is on deployment to the Arbitrum network.

What smart contract standards does NashPoint use?

NashPoint implements ERC-4626 for deposits and synchronous asset management and ERC-7540 for asynchronous asset management and withdrawals.

Is NashPoint open-source?

Yes, NashPoint's smart contracts are open-source on our GitHub.

Will NashPoint have its own token?

NashPoint does not currently have a native token.
