Protocol-Owned HYPE
Understand AscendLaunch protocol-owned HYPE, how the allocation is funded from protocol fees and how it differs from user kHYPE vault positions and HYPE.
Funding the position
- 90% of protocol fees enters the purchase allocation.
- 20% of that purchase allocation is assigned to HYPE purchases.
- 50% of purchased HYPE is allocated to protocol-owned staking.
Under the documented model, this results in an allocation equivalent to 9% of protocol fees for protocol-owned staked HYPE before execution costs, pricing changes and rounding.
Separate from user positions
The protocol-owned position is separate from user kHYPE vault deposits and separate from the HYPE Points Program allocation. User vault principal and attributable yield follow their own accounting and withdrawal mechanics.
