Introduction
INVARA Core is the foundation of the INVARA product family: a non-custodial synthetic equity vault on Robinhood Chain, with a live analytics suite around it.
What INVARA Core is#
INVARA Core lets anyone lock USDG as collateral and mint synthetic equity tokens that track a real stock price. The first market is iAAPL, priced by the Pyth Equity.US.AAPL/USD feed. The vault is immutable: there are no admin, upgrade or pause keys, and no one can move user collateral.
The thesis is simple. Shorting a hard-to-borrow stock in TradFi can cost tens or hundreds of percent a year in borrow fees. Minting the synthetic in INVARA Core costs no vault fee, only gas. The analytics suite exists to find and monitor those gaps with real data.
