Bundles.fi Takes Security and Accessibility to the Next Level
We're excited to announce three major improvements that strengthen the Bundles.fi ecosystem: the Universal Router, the Floor Price System, and Universal Staking. These innovations address critical challenges for bundle users: simplifying access, protecting investments against extreme risks, and enabling flexible yield opportunities.
Universal Router: Invest with Just ETH
The Problem We Solved
Until now, to acquire a bundle token, users had to either:
- Hold all underlying tokens in the correct proportions
- Buy through the bundle liquidity pools, creating direct dependency on their liquidity
This friction created a fragmented liquidity, and a significant barrier to entry, particularly for new investors or those wanting to quickly position themselves in a bundle.
The Solution: One Token In, One Token Out
The Universal Router is a game-changer. Now you can:
Buy bundles with just ETH - No need to acquire each underlying token separately. Just send ETH, and the router handles everything:
- Analyzes available DEXs and liquidity pools in real-time
- Automatically identifies the best prices for each underlying token
- Executes the necessary swaps in an optimized manner
- Mint the bundle token for you in a single transaction
Sell bundles for ETH - When you want to exit, the same simplicity applies. The router automatically:
- Redeems your bundle tokens into underlying assets
- Swaps them all for ETH at the best available rates
- Returns pure ETH to your wallet
Create new bundles with just ETH - Bundle managers can now launch a bundle without needing to source all underlying tokens upfront. Simply deposit ETH, specify your desired composition, and the Universal Router acquires everything at optimal prices and create your bundle in a single transaction.
The impact is threefold:
- The user experience becomes seamless (one click, one token)
- The ecosystem gains resilience - bundles no longer depend exclusively on their own liquidity pools, focusing only on bundles TVL
- Capital efficiency improves - you keep your assets in ETH until the moment you invest, and get back to ETH instantly when you exit
Floor Price: Fund Protection Against Extreme Events
The Systemic Risk of Crypto Indexes
In a crypto bundle, the most critical risk is the total collapse of an underlying token. Imagine a 5-token bundle where one token crashes to zero (hack, rug pull, protocol failure): traditionally, this contaminates the entire bundle and can destroy a significant portion of its value.
Automatic rebalancing can even worsen the problem: the system would continue exchanging good tokens for the failing token to maintain target weights, amplifying losses.
How Floor Price Protection Works
We've implemented a price floor system that acts as an automatic safety net. Here's what it means for you as an investor:
Setting Safety Limits:
- Bundle managers can set a minimum acceptable price (in BUN) for each underlying token
- Think of it as a "circuit breaker" for each asset in your bundle
Active Protection: When the bundle needs to rebalance a token, the system automatically checks if this token's price has fallen below its floor. If it has, the rebalancing is blocked - the bundle simply refuses to execute trades that would involve the distressed token.
A Safety Net for Investors
This protection offers crucial guarantees:
- Automatic blocking of toxic rebalances: If an underlying token crashes, the system prevents the bundle from continuing to allocate resources to it
- Value preservation: The healthy tokens in your bundle remain protected and aren't wasted in unfavorable swaps
- Orderly exit: You can exit this bundle with minimal losses, recovering the value of the still-healthy tokens
- Peace of mind: You're protected against the worst-case scenario where one bad token destroys your entire investment
Universal Staking: Flexible Yield on Your Bundle Tokens
Beyond simply holding bundle tokens, you can now earn additional rewards by staking them in customized campaigns.
How It Works
Multiple Campaigns per Bundle - Anyone can create a staking campaign for any bundle token, offering specific rewards over a defined period. This means:
- A single bundle token can have multiple active campaigns with different reward tokens
- You choose which campaign(s) to stake in based on your preferences
Complete Flexibility - Once staked, you maintain full control:
- Stake: Deposit your bundle tokens into any active campaign
- Withdraw: Remove your stake at any time, even after the campaign ends
- Claim: Collect your earned rewards whenever you want
- Move: Transfer your stake between campaigns (if they use the same bundle token) without unstaking
Built for Composability
The Universal Staking system integrates seamlessly with the Universal Router:
- Buy bundle tokens with ETH via the Universal Router
- Stake them immediately in your chosen campaign(s)
- Earn rewards while maintaining your bundle exposure
This creates a complete investment cycle: ETH → Bundle → Staking → Rewards all with minimal friction and maximum flexibility.
Toward a More Mature Ecosystem
With the Universal Router, Floor Price System, and Universal Staking, Bundles.fi reaches an important milestone of maturity. These features address real needs:
- Accessibility: Investing in a bundle becomes as simple as swapping ETH - no complex token management required
- Security: Investors benefit from protection against token price drop risks
- Yield: Bundle holders can now earn additional rewards on top of their base exposure
- Resilience: The ecosystem becomes less dependent on single points of failure
- Capital efficiency: Keep your funds in ETH and move in and out of bundles seamlessly
These advances lay the foundation for broader adoption of bundles as sophisticated yet accessible investment tools in the DeFi ecosystem. Whether you're creating a new bundle, buying exposure to a diversified basket, staking for yield, or exiting your position - it all happens with just ETH and a few clicks.
