Architecture

Emerald is a thin protocol on top of Uniswap v4, plus an off-chain indexer and metadata service that never touch custody.

On chain

  • Two EmeraldMakerWindow unit tokens (ROLEX, LAMBO) that mint and burn against USDG at their live oracle price.
  • An EmeraldLauncher that deploys a coin and its Uniswap v4 pool in one transaction and opens it at a $6,900 market cap.
  • A PositionLocker that holds every coin's LP forever and splits collected fees 70/30 creator and protocol.
  • Keeper and constant oracles that provide ETH and USDG price references, read only at launch and for display.

Off chain

  • An indexer that follows Robinhood Chain via eth_getLogs and stores exact decimals, never floats.
  • A read API that serves coins, prices, volumes and the Virtual LP status, plus a live WebSocket feed.
  • An IPFS metadata service that pins each coin's image and metadata via Pinata before launch.

Non-custodial

The off-chain services are read and convenience layers only. They cannot move, freeze or recover funds. You transact directly from your own wallet.
