🎨 Creating a Basket

Creating your own basket allows you to build a custom, permissionless index fund and share it with the world. If your basket becomes popular, you can even earn creator fees.

The Creation Process​

The process is guided by a simple multi-step form in the dApp:

  1. Details: First, you'll define the metadata for your basket.
    • Name: A descriptive name for your strategy (e.g., "Solana Ecosystem").
    • Ticker: A unique ticker symbol that must start with B- (e.g., B-SOLDEFI).
    • Logo & Socials: You can optionally upload a custom logo and link to a website, Twitter, or Discord.

  1. Assets & Weights: Next, you'll build the portfolio. You must adhere to a few simple rules to ensure basket quality and investor safety.

Creation Rules​

To ensure baskets are diversified and secure, the following rules are enforced by the smart contract:

  • Asset Count: Your basket must contain more than 2 assets.
  • Whitelist: All assets must be from the protocol's pre-approved whitelist of reputable and liquid tokens.
  • Weight Limits: The weight of any single asset must be between 2.5% (250 bps) and 50% (5000 bps) of the total basket. This encourages proper diversification.
  • Total Weight: The sum of all asset weights must equal exactly 100% (10,000 bps).

Once you submit the on-chain transaction, your basket is live and can be invested in by anyone on Solana.
