Revenue-sharing and yield-bearing mechanism
Pylon Protocol distributes income from three real sources.
You stake $PYL, we handle everything, and you earn weekly.
Stable crypto income — built on real revenue, not token inflation.
Every $PYL trade on Pump.fun generates a creator fee in SOL. This fee is collected weekly and is split to strengthen the Protocol but also to create income for stakers! The split depends on the phase the protocol is in.
Pylon operates its own PYL/SOL liquidity pool on Meteora. Every swap through the pool generates a fee. A fixed share goes directly to stakers; the rest deepens liquidity and grows the treasury.
Our anner monitors hundreds of Solana pools 24/7. Twice a day the results of these scans are visible in Telegram and on the website. Every opportunity is human-verified before entry. Yields from these positions are distributed proportionally to all stakers and back into the Protocol.
Pylon Protocol deploys liquidity into curated liquidity pools on Meteora, Orca and eventually Raydium. These positions earn Yield and with the help of our AI DeFi scanner we curate pools on high volume and deep liquidity. Yield will be split to stakers, Pylon Protocol liquidity and compounding the treasury. The split will depend on the current phase the protocol is in.
If liquidity protocols allow, Pylon Protocol will stake single-sided, eliminating impermanent loss entirely. Only audited, established protocols with deep liquidity and volume are used. Yield is distributed according to the active protocol phase.
When conditions are favorable, Pylon uses liquid staking to keep capital both productive and flexible so we can move quickly when better opportunities appear.
Lock your $PYL tokens and earn a weekly share of real protocol income, paid in SOL directly to your wallet. No token inflation. No manufactured yield. The more Pylon earns, the more you earn.
Full transparency into every pool Pylon Protocol holds. Updated in real-time. Every position is selected by our AI Defi scanner and verified by our team before entry.
Twice a day at 08:00 and 18:00 UTC our AI scans hundreds of Solana pools and surfaces the best regular LP, single-sided, liquid and stacked staking opportunities. Every play is screened on TVL stability, fee-volume ratio and IL risk.
We built Pylon for people who want exposure to DeFi yields without the complexity. Below you will find a detailed description of what the protocol does and how it works.
Download Whitepaper (PDF)Connect your Solana wallet, supported wallets include Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet and Exodus, and stake any amount of $PYL tokens, no minimum required. Choose a locked tier (7 / 30 / 90 / 365 days) for an APSY multiplier of 1.2× up to 3×. The longer you lock, the more you earn.
APSY stands for Annual Percentage Solana Yield, Pylon's native way of measuring what you earn. Unlike traditional APY, which is denominated in dollars and depends on token prices, APSY measures your yield in SOL per token, per year. That means your earnings reflect actual on-chain payouts.
Every week, Pylon distributes real revenue from fees and yield directly to stakers in SOL. APSY is simply the annualized projection of those weekly payouts, calculated from the past 7 days of protocol activity. No emissions. No inflation. No token printing. Just the actual income Pylon Protocol earns, paid out to the people who stake $PYL.
Pylon's AI scanner monitors hundreds of liquidity pools on Solana across a variaty of DeFi protocols. It filters for safety first: audited contracts, sufficient liquidity. Then it ranks by APSY and yield. The AI scanner also shows the highest APSY stacked positions where a slightly more complex form of liquidity placement is executed.
Before any position is taken, the team reviews the opportunity. We never enter a pool based on AI signal alone. This hybrid approach of AI speed, human judgment is what gives Pylon Protocol the advantage it needs.
Once a position is approved, Pylon Protocol deploys liquidity in one of three ways depending on the opportunity and market conditions. How much of this yield flows back to stakers depends on the phase Pylon Protocol is in.
Every week, a fixed portion of Pylon's fee income is allocated to the Liq+Buy wallet. This serves two purposes at once: it deepens the PYL/SOL liquidity pool on Meteora, and it creates automatic buy pressure on $PYL in the open market.
Adding liquidity to a PYL/SOL pool requires both assets in equal value. If the Meteora DLMM pool needs to be rebalanced, the team checks the relevant addition at that moment to determine what is required. When Pylon deposits into the pool, it must first acquire $PYL tokens directly from the open market to match the SOL side of the deposit. That means every single liquidity addition is, by definition, a market buy of $PYL.
The written script ensures that the distribution of all revenue is executed with 100% accuracy. Pylon Protocol validates outgoing payments every week through the 2 out of 3 Multisig approval.
Each income stream has its own allocation because each carries a different risk profile. All three are collected weekly and paid out in SOL per staker.
Pump.fun fees and Meteora fees depend on trading volume. Both are real income but both dry up when the market goes quiet. If Pylon only earns when people trade, stakers only get paid when people trade. That's fragile by design.
The DeFi treasury breaks that dependency. Capital deployed into yield-generating positions earn around the clock regardless of whether anyone trades $PYL. It's the one income stream that doesn't need constant market activity to function.
That's why the treasury receives 65% of Pump.fun fees in the Turbo phase, the highest allocation of any destination. We build the income engine first. Once the treasury crosses $400K and $600K, the staker allocation steps up automatically: 11.6% → 20.3% → 28.2% → 37.8% avg. APSY (depending on a number of factors). The treasury allocation shrinks as a % precisely because it no longer needs to grow, it's already working.
On top of that, the treasury is fed by two additional streams that compound its growth:
Pylon's phases advance automatically when the treasury hits its milestones but the system also works in reverse. If the treasury draws down significantly, two protection levels activate automatically. No governance vote. No manual trigger. The protocol responds on its own.
Every position we hold is visible on the page. Moreover, all wallets involved in Pylon Protocol are displayed below and are visible to everyone! You never have to trust us blindly you can verify everything yourself.

Assumptions: 1,000,000,000 $PYL total supply. Volume is adjustable (base model: $2M/week). Pump.fun creator fee is dynamic per market cap tier (0.05% to 0.95%, launch zone = 0.95%). Meteora DLMM pool charges a 1% swap fee on all trades routed through the pool (estimated at 30% of total weekly PYL volume). Both Pump.fun and Meteora income are purely volume-driven: more trading volume means more fee income, no fixed APSY is assumed. DeFi treasury earns 5 to 22% APSY on deployed capital. Treasury compounding is built into both modes: fee income is reinvested weekly, growing the payout pool over time. 100% of treasury yield is compounded during the Turbo phase. Yield unlocks to stakers at the $400K and $600K treasury thresholds. Fixed % (optimistic): staked percentage stays constant, yield per token rises as the treasury compounds. Dynamic % (realistic): staked percentage grows with treasury milestones as more holders join. Payouts are distributed weekly in SOL. APSY (Annual Percentage Solana Yield) = annual SOL value of payout per token per year.
We built Pylon because we got tired of watching the same story play out and because we lived it ourselves.
The number of malicious projects in crypto keeps growing. And it's getting worse.
After years of being active in the crypto market and being deceived more times than we care to count one thing became clear: the vast majority of projects are built with a single goal in mind. Extract as much value as possible from the people who believe in them, and disappear.
Pump and dumps. Rug pulls. Promises of utility that never materialise. Insiders selling on retail. It has become so common that it almost feels normal and that is exactly the problem.
We were not observers. We were participants and we paid the price.
After years in the market, across dozens of projects, protocols and communities, the pattern became impossible to ignore. The people who benefit most from crypto are rarely the ones who use it every day. They are the insiders, the early whales, the teams who designed the tokenomics to extract not to sustain.
Real wealth creation in crypto has become the exception, not the rule. And the window of opportunity keeps narrowing for ordinary people who want genuine exposure to what this technology can offer.
Something had to be built that actually gives back.
Pylon was built on a simple belief: a crypto project can be designed to serve its users first and still be financially sustainable. Not one or the other. Both.
That means real income from real sources. No token inflation. No hidden allocations. No team wallets quietly selling into your liquidity. Every dollar Pylon earns is accounted for transparently and the majority goes directly back to the people who stake and believe in the protocol.
We are not here to get rich at your expense. We are here to build something that lasts and to prove that it is still possible to do that in this market.
These are not marketing words. They are the constraints we built Pylon around.
Built by one founder. Wahid Vardak contributes as an independent adviser — advisory only, no operational role.
Built Pylon from conviction, not capital. After years in the crypto market — including running Coinformation, an independent crypto education platform — the pattern of extractive projects became impossible to ignore. Pylon is the answer to that.
Brings a grounded financial perspective to Pylon's treasury strategy and capital allocation. Background spans investment management at HAL Investments, corporate finance advisory at Clearwater International, and credit analysis at Fiduciam — giving the protocol a serious institutional lens.
We're not asking for blind trust. We're asking you to look at the on-chain data, read the tokenomics, check the treasury wallet and decide for yourself.
