Decentralisation

Fully on-chain

Sentidex is fully on-chain. Positions, balances, and market state all live in smart contracts. The AMM is on-chain too. Nothing is held by Sentidex, and nothing requires Sentidex to be running for your positions or prices to exist.

Non-custodial

Connect any EVM-compatible wallet and your funds remain under your control. There is no account system, no sign-up, and no withdrawal request. You interact directly with the contracts.

No price curator

Every alternative measure of attention requires a curator: someone who decides what counts, how to weight it, and how to update the methodology over time. That decision introduces a single point of bias and control.

Sentidex has no curator. The price is set entirely by trading activity. No entity, including Sentidex, can move a price without putting capital at risk.

Permissionless liquidity

Anyone can deploy an AMM or order book on top of a live Sentidex market. The Ledger, which holds all positions and enforces solvency, is open. Adding a new pricing mechanism requires no permission from the Sentidex team.

Open contracts

Source code and audit reports will be published ahead of launch. Integration means reading the contracts directly. There is no hosted API and no off-chain dependency.

Market creation

The one remaining centralised element is market creation. New Attention Markets and new positions within them are currently created by the Sentidex team. We are exploring mechanisms to decentralise this.
