Prisma Finance
A community-owned suite of DeFi applications on Asentum, the post-quantum blockchain. Swap, lend, trade perps, and stake — with contracts written in JavaScript that anyone can read and verify on-chain.
Introduction#
Prisma Finance brings the core primitives of decentralized finance — spot trading, lending, perpetual futures, and staking — to Asentum, a Layer-1 designed to stay secure in a post-quantum world. The protocol is built to be transparent and community-first: its native token, PRFI, is earned by using the protocol rather than bought from insiders, and the Prisma Foundation directs the large majority of the ASE it receives back to the community.
The Asentum chain#
Asentum is the Layer-1 that Prisma Finance is built on. Three properties make it a good home for DeFi that is meant to last:
- Post-quantum security. Every signature uses ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium3), a NIST-standardized lattice scheme, from the first block.
- JavaScript contracts. Contracts are plain JavaScript deployed as source and verifiable on-chain by a single hash comparison — no opaque bytecode.
- Native scheduling. The chain can run scheduled calls itself, so liquidations and funding settle without external keepers.
Prisma Swap#
A constant-product automated market maker (x·y=k) for spot trading and liquidity provision. Liquidity providers earn a 0.30% fee on every trade in their pool, plus PRFI airdrop points for the liquidity they provide over time.
Prisma Pools#
The liquidity side of Prisma Swap. Liquidity providers deposit a pair of tokens into a pool (for example PRFI/ASE) and receive an LP position representing their share. Every swap pays a 0.30% fee that accrues to the pool pro-rata, and providing liquidity also earns PRFI rewards and airdrop points. Because pricing is constant-product, providers are exposed to impermanent loss when the two assets diverge in price.
Prisma Lend#
An over-collateralized money market. Suppliers earn a base interest rate plus extra PRFI rewards; borrowers post collateral and pay interest in the borrowed asset, while still earning a share of PRFI.
| Asset | Supply APY | Borrow APY | Max LTV |
|---|---|---|---|
| ASE | 10% + 10% PRFI | 14% + 8% PRFI | 70% |
| PRFI | 30% + 15% PRFI | 38% + 10% PRFI | 45% |
Prisma Perps#
Perpetual futures with leverage up to 20x. Market and limit orders, take-profit and stop-loss, with funding and liquidations settled by Asentum’s native scheduler. The interface shows a live candlestick chart (BTC/USDT reference) plus position size, entry and liquidation price, and fees before opening.
Prisma Predict#
A prediction market for real-world outcomes — crypto prices, macro events, and the Asentum ecosystem. Each market trades two outcome shares (Yes and No); a share pays $1 if its outcome resolves true and $0 otherwise, so the price of the Yes share reads directly as the market-implied probability. Markets resolve through an on-chain oracle with a dispute window, and trading earns PRFI airdrop points.
Prisma Stake#
Lock PRFI to receive verPRFI, a non-transferable balance that earns a share of all protocol fees, boosts your rewards and airdrop points (up to 2.5x), and grants voting power. Longer locks grant more verPRFI, following the vote-escrow (ve) model. Stakers also gain a probability — up to 2% — of receiving compensation on perp trades that close at a loss, scaling with stake size and lock duration.
PRFI & tokenomics#
PRFI is the governance and incentive token of Prisma Finance. Total supply is fixed at 1,000,000 PRFI.
| Allocation | Share | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Community airdrop (Season 1) | 15% | Retroactive, distributed at TGE |
| Liquidity mining & incentives | 30% | Multi-year emissions |
| Treasury (Prisma Foundation) | 18% | Development, security, reserve |
| Core contributors & team | 17% | 12-month cliff, 36-month vesting |
| Ecosystem, grants & partnerships | 12% | Integrations, market makers, audits |
| Early backers / strategic | 8% | 12-month cliff, 24-month vesting |
The airdrop#
The community allocation is earned through a points program: providing liquidity on Swap, supplying or borrowing on Lend, trading on Perps, and staking PRFI all accrue points, weighted by size and duration, with Early Adopter, Loyalty, and Referral multipliers. At TGE, points convert pro-rata into each participant’s share of the 15% community allocation.
Separately, the Prisma Foundation receives an ASE airdrop from Asentum and directs it to the community: 40% is airdropped to participants alongside PRFI, 40% seeds the PRFI/ASE liquidity pool, and 20% is kept as a lean treasury reserve. See the PRFI Airdrop page for full details.
Security#
- Quantum-safe by default. All signatures are post-quantum (ML-DSA-65) from genesis.
- Verifiable contracts. Contracts are plain JavaScript readable on-chain; verifying deployed code is a single hash comparison.
- Reentrancy-resistant runtime. Cross-contract calls are asynchronous message-passing, removing a whole class of reentrancy bugs.
- Audits. Independent audits are planned before mainnet. Until then, treat the protocol as experimental testnet software.
Roadmap#
- Now — Testnet. Swap, Lend, Perps, and Stake interfaces live in preview; airdrop points begin accruing once contracts are deployed.
- Next — Contracts on testnet. Deploy the ARC-20 token, AMM, lending, perps, and staking contracts; wire the UI to live data.
- Then — Audit & snapshot. Independent audit, points snapshot, and final eligibility criteria.
- TGE & mainnet. PRFI and ASE claim, PRFI/ASE pool launch, and the move to mainnet.
FAQ#
Is Prisma Finance live on mainnet?
No. It runs on Asentum testnet first. All figures shown in the app are illustrative until the contracts are deployed and audited.
What is the difference between PRFI and ASE?
ASE is the native token of the Asentum chain. PRFI is the token of the Prisma Finance protocol, earned by using Swap, Lend, Perps, and Stake.
How do I earn the airdrop?
Provide liquidity, lend or borrow, trade perps, and stake PRFI. These actions accrue points that convert to PRFI at TGE. See the PRFI Airdrop page.
Why JavaScript contracts?
Asentum runs contracts as plain JavaScript in a hardened sandbox, so anyone can read and verify them on-chain without decompiling bytecode.
