Description

# Sentidex


**Perpetual attention markets. Live, tradable prices on who holds attention in crypto and culture.**


Live now on Robinhood Chain testnet: **https://www.sentidex.io**


## The idea


Attention is finite. When one name rises, another falls. That makes attention share a real, zero sum quantity, and a zero sum quantity can carry a real price. Sentidex turns that price into a market: perpetual, continuous, no expiry, no resolution. The flagship market prices 73 crypto influencers, from Vlad Tenev and Elon Musk to the most reactive traders on X, against each other in real time.


## Why it is different


- **Instant liquidity with zero external capital.** A new market is deep and tradable from its first block. No liquidity providers, no bootstrapping phase: the protocol's synthetic liquidity mechanism backs the market maker at creation.

- **Native shorts.** Short tokens are first class objects, not derivatives. No funding rate, no borrowing. A Long and a Short of the same name auto merge on arrival to release $1 of collateral, so exits are always available.

- **Everything is gasless.** The faucet funds a fresh wallet with a $10,000 test balance plus a little gas. Trades and ERC20 wraps are EIP-712 signed orders that a relayer submits and pays for. A user never needs to acquire ETH.

- **Composable.** Any position exports to a standard ERC20 with one signature, ready for wallets, transfers, and DeFi. Trading itself stays native and gasless; wrapping is opt in.


## Try it in 60 seconds


1. Open sentidex.io and connect a wallet. The app adds Robinhood Chain testnet for you.

2. Claim the $10,000 test balance from the banner.

3. Trade any name. Watch the live tape and the price chart move; every trade links to the Robinhood explorer.

4. Export a position as an ERC20 with one signature, add it to MetaMask.

## Under the hood

All collateral lives in a single on chain Ledger, denominated in eUSDC, the protocol's collateral token. Markets are quoted by an O(1) LMSR market maker: one contract instance prices all outcomes, and the whole market (positions, pricing, liquidity) is created in a single transaction.
