  1. Key Features

Port

Introduction

Port is an on-chain vault infrastructure by Ozean that can create highly liquid, permissionless, and diversified yield-bearing assets backed by the top RWA assets on Ozean. RWA assets on-chain on an individual basis are generally illiquid, and often have lockup periods ranging some several months up to a year. Port aims to pool these individual assets with t-bills and other liquid yield-bearing assets, which as a whole, provide users with their required diversification and liquidity needs.

Ozean has a close Strategic Partnership with Hex Trust as a licensed digital asset manager and custodian with over $5B in AUC to provide execution services on behalf of Ozean. Constituents and resulting weights will be determined via governance vote.

Current Problems with RWA

  1. Restricted Access: Accredited investors only

  2. Illiquid: Long-duration commitments limit investor flexibility

  3. Concentrated Risk: Overexposure to single sectors or protocols

  4. Lack of Transparency: Many vault products operate opaquely without clear third party risk assessments

  5. Centralized Decision-Making: Asset selection often lacks decentralization and governance

  6. Difficult Risk Assessment: Limited tools to evaluate constituent asset risks

Port Features

  • Permissionless Access: Open to all users, not just accredited investors

  • Liquidity: ETF-like structure with partial allocation in cash/treasuries for shorter redemption windows

  • Diversification: Exposure to private credit, bonds, real estate, tokenized yield strategies, and more

  • Transparency: Asset management arm of Hex Trust operates a SPV; risk ratings provided by trusted third-party assessors (Synnax, Cred Protocol, Credora, Cicada)

  • Governance-Driven: Asset constituents determined by $OZ token governance

  • Advanced Risk Assessment: Real-time risk monitoring and ratings for all yield-bearing assets

Strategic Partnerships

Joining Port as a constituent yield-bearing asset partner offers significant advantages for issuers and protocols:

1. Increased Capital Activity

  • Gain access to a wide pool of liquidity from retail and institutional investors participating in the vault

  • Drive growth and adoption of your protocol or asset by being part of a diversified, permissionless, and governance-driven vault product

2. Enhanced Liquidity for Your Assets

  • Port creates a liquid ETF-like product that provides easier access to your yield-bearing assets, increasing trading activity and engagement

  • By being part of a permissionless vault, your asset becomes more accessible to a broader audience, driving liquidity and market depth

3. Exposure to a Larger Investor Base

  • Inclusion in Port introduces your asset or protocol to a diverse set of investors seeking yield opportunities in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) and crypto-native strategies

  • Retail investors gain permissionless access to your assets, enabling greater adoption and visibility

4. Credibility Through Risk Monitoring and Governance

  • Assets in the vault are rated and monitored in real-time by industry-leading risk assessment tools (e.g., Synnax, Cred Protocol, Credora, Cicada). This enhances trust and credibility in your asset

  • Inclusion in a governance-driven and community-decided vault ensures alignment with a decentralized ecosystem and boosts confidence among investors

5. Participation in the Ozean Ecosystem

  • Port is a native product of the Ozean ecosystem, which brings additional synergies:

    • Increased exposure and yield-generating opportunities for your protocol through integration with Ozean’s broader DeFi infrastructure

    • Potential for future collaborations and deeper partnerships with other ecosystem participants

6. Diversified Use Case for Your Asset

  • By being a part of a multi-asset, diversified vault, your asset benefits from exposure to investors seeking balanced portfolios, improving its utility and positioning in the market

  • Thematic expansions in Phase 2 (e.g., private credit, T-bills, real estate) create additional opportunities for your asset to be featured in specialized portfolios

7. Alignment with Institutional-Grade Infrastructure

  • Hex Trust’s SPV management and licensed custodian services provide institutional-grade oversight for the vault, bolstering the perception of your asset as part of a regulated and secure financial product
