How It Fits Together

Whalehub operates on three layers:

  1. Smart contracts on Stellar (Soroban) — handle staking, rewards, and vault logic

  2. Backend server — automates reward distribution, compounding, and ICE governance

  3. Web app — user interface for staking, vaults, and claiming rewards

The protocol earns yield by voting its pooled ICE position on Aquarius and collecting the voting revenue that power attracts. Revenue arrives as AQUA and flows back to stakers as AQUA, while a portion strengthens the protocol's own liquidity position.
