An ETF used to need a
billion dollars and a lawyer.
Launching a fund meant a sponsor, a custodian, an authorized participant, a prospectus and a seven-figure budget. That's why there are a few thousand ETFs and eight billion opinions.
On Robinhood Chain, a share of NVDA or SPY is a token. A token can sit inside a smart contract, be counted by anyone, and be swapped on a DEX at any hour of the 24/5 session. So a fund is just a contract that holds tokens and issues shares against them.
indexforge is that contract, with a form on top.
How a vault works
- MintPick 2 to 10 tokenized stocks and their weights. We deploy an ERC-4626 vault with your basket, your ticker and your rebalance schedule. You seed it with the first deposit.
- Buy inAnyone deposits USDG and receives vault shares at NAV. The vault routes the USDG into the basket through the DEX in the same transaction. Redeeming does the reverse.
- RebalancePrices drift, weights drift. On schedule, a keeper calls rebalance() and the vault trades back to target. Anyone can verify the trades on-chain.
- EarnThe vault streams 0.50% a year of its assets to the creator, accrued every block and claimable any time. Grow the vault, grow the fee.
The math
The fine print
This is a preview. Your wallet connects to Robinhood Chain mainnet for real, and every action is signed by your wallet. The vaults themselves are simulated: no contract is deployed yet, no token moves, and no gas is spent. Balances shown as USDG are preview funds.
A basket of five stocks is not diversified. Past returns of a backtest are hypothetical. Tokenized stocks may not be available in every jurisdiction. Nothing here is investment advice.
