Amun is excited to announce the launch of the Polygon Ecosystem Index — PECO. The first index token designed to track the performance of the top projects on Polygon, PECO provides investors an easy and low cost way to invest in Polygon’s vibrant and growing ecosystem.

PECO was created in collaboration with the Polygon Foundation and leading Polygon projects. The Polygon Foundation is providing $5 million in MATIC to seed the launch of the index. In addition, constituent protocols Qi DAO, Adamant Finance, and DFYN are also providing seed capital to bootstrap liquidity for the launch.

Thanks to a combination of low gas fees and ease of use, Polygon has exploded in popularity, recently surpassing Ethereum in daily active addresses. Polygon’s DeFi ecosystem has over $4 billion in total value locked thanks to native protocols such as Quickswap and Qi DAO. In addition, Polygon’s scalability has made it a powerful NFT gaming platform, powering games such as Aavegotchi. PECO provides easy access to all these projects and more in a single, diversified index token.

PECO will officially launch on October 21st at 12PM UTC*. To celebrate its release, we are kicking off a pre-sale starting today. Participants in the pre-sale receive up to 30% airdrop bonus PECO tokens while supplies last. For example, if you purchase $1,000 of PECO, you will receive an airdrop of up to $300 of PECO if you hold the tokens for sixty days. The airdrop bonus schedule is shown in the table below — the earlier you sign up, the larger the airdrop!

How to Join:

  1. Register for the pre-sale. We will ask for your wallet address, email address, and estimated purchase size. Certain countries, including the United States, are not eligible for the pre-sale — see ‘Details & Disclaimers’ below.
  2. The week before the pre-sale we will email you instructions including the venue, time, and duration.
  3. On October 21th, follow the instructions in the email to claim your PECO.
  4. Hold your PECO tokens for 60 days to receive the bonus airdrop.

About PECO

Built in collaboration with the Polygon Foundation, the Polygon Ecosystem Index (PECO) is composed of the top tokens native to the Polygon ecosystem. Consisting of 50% MATIC, PECO gives holders an alternative to only holding MATIC and instead gives them a token that grows with the entire ecosystem, not just the base token. PECO is rebalanced on a monthly basis to lock in gains and ensure constituent tokens are allocated accordingly by rank of market capitalization and liquidity.

  • PECO’s initial composition is made up of Polygon, Quickswap, DFYN, Adamant Finance, Aavegotchi, and Qi Dao.
  • PECO is available on both Polygon and Ethereum. A bridge allows you to bring your PECO across the two networks.
  • To start, MATIC makes up 50% of the index composition. As the Polygon network matures, we expect to lower the portion of MATIC to make way for more project tokens. The remainder of the 50% is composed of protocol tokens weighted using the averaged ratio of market cap and DEX liquidity.
  • As PECO is an index token, there is no max supply. This token can be minted and burned at any time.
  • The contract address of both the liquidity pools and token itself will be announced in our Twitter and social channels closer to the launch date. Be aware of scam projects imitating PECO.

Current PECO composition. Final composition will change based on price and liquidity.
