A reservoir for market storms.
Wild weeks scare most people out of the market. STRYK is a dam built to face them: you pour your crypto into a shared reservoir, and every week traders pay real money for a claim on how that water moves. Their payment — the premium — is discharged back to everyone in the pool each Friday.
No forecasts, no trading skill required from you. The dam does the same disciplined thing every week, in public, on Solana — and this page walks you from the picture to the machinery, as deep as you want to go.
Five parts, one machine.
Run your cursor over the drawing — every part of the dam is a real page of this site doing a real job.
The reservoir
This is where deposits pool. Your SOL, BTC, ETH, or USDC is the stored water — it never leaves the dam while it works.
Each vault is a program-owned account on Solana. Depositing mints shares; the water level is the vault's total assets.
Open the reservoirs →Four words, no jargon.
Everything on this site maps to one of these. Hover a card to see the finance term hiding underneath.
Storms
Weeks when prices swing hard. Scary to sail in — but storms are what fill reservoirs.
Volatility
The measured size of price swings. Higher volatility makes the weekly option worth more.
The reservoir
A pool everyone fills together. Your deposit is water behind the dam, working while stored.
Options vault
A program-owned account that runs one strategy on pooled deposits, one epoch per week.
Water pressure
Stored water pushes. That push is worth money to people downstream — every single week.
Option premium
The price a trader pays for the weekly option the vault sells. Collected up front, in cash.
The Friday discharge
Once a week the dam opens and what the week earned flows out to everyone who filled it.
Weekly LP distribution
At settlement the collected premium is credited to LPs pro rata and the position rolls.
The same five moves, every epoch.
Hover the steps — the scene replays the week: fill, price, auction, discharge, roll.
Five dams, five weather patterns.
Each reservoir runs one strategy and nothing else. Hover a card to light its silhouette.

What $STRYK actually does.
Two jobs, both verifiable on-chain. No promises that are not in the program.
The maker's bond
The traders who bid in the weekly auctions put $STRYK on the line to hold a seat. Quote and fail to settle, and the program slashes that stake — the auction floor runs on collateral, not reputation.
Maker staking →Buyback and burn
Protocol fees spin the turbine: $STRYK is bought off the market and sent to Solana's incinerator address, where it is unrecoverable. The burn is a public token account anyone can watch.
The flywheel →Contract address
