About Percolator Foundation

Percolator Foundation is a collective of Solana devs forking the Percolator protocol to create a community-owned sharded perpetual exchange. The foundation funds audits, grants, and infrastructure via a transparent creator-fee pipeline. Built by the community, for the community.

How It Works — Simplified

A technical overview of the Percolator architecture and fee distribution model

Sharded Slabs
Independent LP-run engines with 10MB deterministic state per slab. Scalable and efficient matching.
Router
Global custody of collateral, routes cross-slab orders, and manages portfolio margin across the network.
Matching & Risk
Deterministic order execution inside slabs with on-chain reserve/commit flow for maximum security.
Creator-Fee Pipeline
Fees from trades split on-chain to slab LPs, router operations, and Foundation treasury for audits and grants.
