The BTC Summer campaign leverages Neutron’s integrated blockchain infrastructure to deliver sophisticated Bitcoin DeFi strategies through a robust, transparent, and scalable technical architecture.

System Components

Points & Rewards Infrastructure

Points Contract: Smart contract system for transparent reward tracking and distribution
  • Stores user points and reward calculations on-chain
  • Supports both Ethereum and Neutron address formats
  • Enables real-time reward projections and verification
Reward Distribution: Dollar-denominated rewards converted to NTRN at epoch end
  • Protects users from token price volatility during epochs
  • Aligns campaign costs with network growth
  • Enables predictable reward planning

Cross-Chain Coordination

Address Linking System: User-controlled cross-chain reward coordination
  • Boost Pointer Contract for linking rewards across networks
  • Support for both EVM and Neutron address formats
  • User-controlled “pointing” system for boost coordination
Bridge Infrastructure: Secure asset bridging for Ethereum vault participants
  • Automated bridging through established protocols
  • Asset deployment to Neutron DeFi positions
  • Withdrawal processing back to user wallets

DeFi Integration Layer

Protocol Connectivity: Direct integration with Neutron’s DeFi ecosystem
  • Amber Protocol for lending and leveraged strategies
  • Supervaults for automated market making
  • Mars Protocol for perpetuals trading (integration pending)
Real-Time Data: Live position tracking and reward calculations
  • Daily snapshots for fair reward distribution
  • Cross-protocol position aggregation
  • Transparent on-chain verification

Security Considerations

On-Chain Transparency

  • All points and rewards data stored on-chain
  • Public verification of reward calculations
  • No centralized backend dependencies for core functions

Manipulation Prevention

  • Random snapshot timing prevents gaming
  • Time-averaged calculations reduce manipulation impact
  • Cross-protocol validation ensures data accuracy

Smart Contract Security

  • Established protocols with proven track records
  • Multiple security audits for critical components
  • Gradual rollout with monitoring and safeguards

Integration Architecture

For Frontend Developers

  • REST API endpoints for points and reward data
  • WebSocket connections for real-time updates
  • Standard wallet integration patterns

For Asset Issuers

  • Points API integration for tracking asset performance
  • Reward distribution coordination
  • Partnership integration opportunities

For Protocol Partners

  • Direct protocol integration specifications
  • Cross-chain coordination support
  • Revenue sharing and partnership frameworks

Performance & Scalability

Neutron Infrastructure Advantages

  • High-frequency oracles: Per-block price updates for accurate calculations
  • Native automation: Built-in scheduling for reward distributions
  • Integrated orderbook: Efficient liquidity management
  • Cross-chain modules: Trust-minimized bridge coordination

Campaign Scalability

  • Designed to handle thousands of participants
  • Efficient batch processing for reward calculations
  • Modular architecture for future campaign expansion

Data Flow

User Deposits

  1. Ethereum Path: Vault → Bridge → Neutron Protocol → Points Tracking
  2. Neutron Path: Direct Protocol → Points Tracking
  3. Reward Calculation: Daily snapshots → Points accumulation → Epoch distribution

Boost Mechanisms

  1. NTRN Locking: Lock contract → Receipt NFT → Boost calculation
  2. Address Linking: Boost pointing → Cross-chain coordination → Reward enhancement
  3. Verification: On-chain validation → Real-time boost application
