01Frequently asked
Does SLUICE hold the pool or sign anything?
No. It holds no key and produces no signature. The project's own wallet funds and signs every batch.
Do I need a server?
No. SLUICE runs on your machine and has no backend.
Can I run it for several projects?
Yes. Each project has its own tokens, wallets, rules and history. Your fee is one operator setting across all of them.
How are holders paid?
With direct SPL token transfers from the project's funding wallet. SLUICE prepares them as unsigned batches; your wallet signs and sends them. Holders do not need to do anything, and no on-chain program is needed. The dry run estimates the network cost first.
Can I weight holders by tier or by how long they held?
Yes. By tier in the project form opens a tier editor (multipliers or fixed portions of the pool). Time-weighted in the run panel averages balances over a window from samples you record during it (how).
Can I take a snapshot at a past slot?
No. A snapshot reads the current slot and records it. A past balance cannot be read on an ordinary endpoint; for a window, record balance samples while it runs.
Does it work with Token-2022?
Yes. The token program is read from the mint. Transfer fees and transfer hooks are detected and warned about.
Can I call payouts "dividends" or "yield"?
The presets exist, but whether a word is appropriate for a project is a legal question for that project (Compliance).
Can it show holders what they will receive next time?
No, on purpose. SLUICE shows only what already happened.
Is there a Windows or Linux app?
No. The configured targets are macOS, web, Android and iOS.
