Circus for protocols

Circus is a rewards program for DeFi on Solana. Players do the swaps and packs they would do anyway, through Circus, and earn points and chances in on-chain prize pots. Partner protocols fund those pots with part of the revenue Circus users bring them.

The model

Revenue share funds the pots. A partner shares part of the revenue that Circus users generate on its protocol; that share becomes the prize pots.
Points and chances for your users. Every action on your protocol through Circus earns your users points and chances in the next show, at no cost to them, with a free chance every show for anyone.
A fee per activated wallet, secondary. A partner tent that brings new wallets can also pay per activated wallet; it is a secondary line, not the core of the model.

How the share reaches the pots

A player swaps or opens a pack through Circus, on the partner's protocol, and signs the transaction in their own wallet.
Each credited action is recorded with its signature, so the activity Circus brought to the partner can be counted on-chain.
The partner's share of the revenue from that activity is paid to Circus, and the operator funds that show's prize pot with it in one sum before the show closes: pots hold partner revenue only, never from players.
The show is drawn on Solana with ORAO VRF. Every pot, draw and payout is public on the transparency page.

Where this stands

This is a proposed model, not signed with any protocol yet. The share, any Circus fee and the per-wallet fee are to be agreed with each partner. Today Circus runs as a devnet beta with test tokens; a mainnet pilot follows an independent audit and a legal review, and measures volume per user before any agreement is priced.
