DeGod-for-DeGod Swaps

Facilitating direct NFT swaps between users and the Project X vault.

Seamless NFT Swapping
The DeGod Swap feature provides a unique opportunity for users to exchange their DeGod NFTs directly with those held within the Project X vault. This mechanism offers enhanced liquidity and access to a curated collection of DeGods.

Traditional NFT trading can be cumbersome, often requiring users to list their assets on marketplaces and wait for a buyer. The DeGod Swap feature aims to simplify this by allowing instant, peer-to-protocol swaps, enabling users to easily diversify their holdings or acquire specific DeGods with desired traits from the vault's collection.

Enhanced Liquidity

Instantly swap your DeGod for one in the vault without waiting for marketplace buyers.

Access to Traits

Acquire DeGods with specific traits or rarity by swapping with the diverse collection in the vault.

Understanding the Swap Process
The swap process is designed to be transparent and fair, with clear guidelines on value assessment and fees.

1. Selection & Proposal

Users can browse the DeGods available in the Project X vault and select one they wish to acquire. They then propose a DeGod from their own collection to swap. The interface provides tools to filter vault DeGods by traits or other characteristics.

2. Value Assessment & Balancing

To ensure fair exchange, both the user's DeGod and the selected vault DeGod are assessed based on current market indicators, including floor price and trait rarity. If there's a value discrepancy, a balancing payment in SOL may be required:

  • If the user's DeGod is valued lower, the user may need to add SOL to complete the swap.
  • If the user's DeGod is valued higher, the protocol may compensate with SOL, subject to DAO-approved limits.

The system will clearly indicate any required balancing payment before the swap is finalized.

3. Swap Fee

Protocol Fee: 0.5 SOL

A nominal flat fee of 0.5 SOL is applied to each DeGod-for-DeGod swap. This fee contributes to the protocol's revenue, supporting vault expansion, operational costs, and staking rewards, as detailed in the Revenue Streams section.

4. Execution

Once the terms are agreed upon and any balancing payments are settled, the swap is executed atomically via a smart contract, ensuring both NFTs are transferred simultaneously to the respective new owners.

Secure & Transparent Swaps
Ensuring trust in every transaction.
  • Atomic Transactions: Swaps are executed atomically, meaning both transfers happen simultaneously or not at all, eliminating counterparty risk.
  • Smart Contract Mediated: All swaps are managed by audited smart contracts, ensuring adherence to predefined rules without intermediaries.
  • Clear Value Display: The platform provides clear information on estimated values and any balancing fees before users commit to a swap.
