Overview

P10 is Paragon’s flagship on-chain index, designed to provide diversified exposure to leading crypto assets through a single token. One position. Diversified exposure. Fully on-chain.

What P10 Is

P10 is an index token that represents a curated basket of crypto assets.

Instead of managing multiple tokens:

  • buy → P10

  • get → diversified market exposure


Core Design

P10 is built to be:

  • user-governed → controlled via veXPGN

  • transparent → fully on-chain

  • scalable → suitable for both retail and institutional use


What’s Inside P10

The index includes:

  • high-liquidity assets

  • top tokens by market relevance

  • protocol-approved assets

👉 Examples (illustrative only):

  • BTC

  • ETH

  • BNB

  • leading DeFi assets


⚠️ Final composition is:

  • governed by veXPGN

  • updated over time

  • publicly visible


How It Works

Mint

You deposit:

  • USDT or a supported asset

The protocol:

  • acquires the underlying basket

  • mints P10 representing that allocation


Redeem

You burn:

  • P10

You receive:

  • underlying assets or

  • a single asset via routing


👉 This allows flexible entry and exit.


Execution Layer

P10 uses Paragon’s execution system to:

  • source liquidity

  • optimize trade routing

  • improve capital efficiency


Why P10 Is Different

Traditional index funds:

  • custodial

  • opaque

  • slower to adjust


Most DeFi indexes:

  • static allocation

  • manual rebalancing

  • inefficient execution


Paragon P10:

  • on-chain and transparent

  • dynamically governed

  • execution-optimized


Non-Custodial

  • users retain control of assets

  • minting and redemption occur via smart contracts

  • no centralized custody


Institutional Ready

P10 is designed for:

  • funds

  • DAOs

  • larger capital deployments


Key features:

  • predictable mint and redeem flow

  • transparent holdings

  • auditable contracts

  • scalable execution


Rebalancing (Governed)

P10 composition is:

  • governed by veXPGN

  • updated periodically

  • based on market and liquidity conditions


👉 All changes are transparent and on-chain.


Efficiency

P10 is designed for:

  • optimized routing

  • reduced slippage

  • efficient capital deployment
