Revest Finance: An Introduction to The Revest Protocol

2 min readJul 1, 2021

Revest Finance proposes a new protocol for the packaging, transfer and storage of fungible ERC-20 tokens as non-fungible tokenized financial instruments, leveraging the ERC-1155 Non-Fungible Token standard for ease of access and universality of commerce.

Using this product, ownership of underlying assets may be traded in ways that do not affect the value of the underlying asset, leading to a new meta-layer of commerce.

Value Proposition

Current DeFi value locking solutions are inadequate. With currently available value-locking mechanics, trustless transfer of the future rights to locked assets is impossible. The Revest Protocol introduces the Financial Non-Fungible Token (FNFT) to solve this issue and to build a stronger DeFi economy.

The underlying assets of an FNFT can be locked under a wide variety of conditions, including:

Time Locks — locks that unlock after a period of time has passed, permitting the value within to be withdrawn only following the passing of that period.

Value Locks — locks that unlock when the value of the underlying asset rises above or falls below a prescribed value, as reported by an on-chain oracle.

Address Locks — locks that unlock when called by a prescribed address determined at creation. This allows for the creation of arbitrary contracts that can utilize any combination of on- or off-chain inputs in determining FNFT unlock conditions.

The Revest Protocol offers the first self-service platform for non-fungible derivative creation in the DeFi ecosystem. By easing the creation of on-chain derivatives, Revest Finance will greatly diversify the span of derivatives available, and in doing so, offer broader risk management solutions for blockchain investors.

To simplify the analysis of any-given portfolio, each FNFT will display an interactive GUI on all NFT platforms including OpenSea and Rarible as depicted below.
