Haven leverage protocol

What is Haven?

Haven is a revolutionary leverage protocol built on Solana that offers a unique approach to leveraged trading:

  • No liquidations
  • No crazy volatility decay
  • Low funding costs

It provides pure high-beta exposure to your favorite assets. If you believe in SOL, this is spot-holding on steroids.

How Haven Works

  1. Visit Haven
  2. Pick a token (like $SOL, $ETH, $BTC, etc)
  3. Choose low leverage (1.2x–2x)
  4. Enter your deposit and open a position

You can stay long without ever worrying about being liquidated. While shorting is also possible, we recommend starting with a long position on SOL using low leverage.

Why Traditional Holding Might Cost You Money

Let's compare different scenarios with 100 SOL at $150:

  • Normal spot holding: ~$5k profit if SOL hits $200
  • 2x Haven leverage: ~$10k+ profit
  • Traditional leverage: $8k+ — but with massive liquidation risk

With Haven, you eliminate the risk of getting wiped out mid-cycle.

The Secret Behind No Liquidations

Haven builds on top of @marginfi but operates differently from traditional margin trading:

  • Instead of borrowing against collateral like on CEX
  • You deposit into a vault that auto-rebalances your exposure
  • If price moves against you, it slowly de-risks your position
  • No forced liquidation, no getting wiped out
  • You stay alive to catch the upside

Try It Yourself

Use Haven's strategy simulator to test different scenarios:

  1. Pick a realistic cycle-end price
  2. Compare results:
    • Haven outperforms spot
    • Often beats traditional leverage too — especially as price increases
    • Same bet for the potential price, but more profit

TL;DR – Smart $SOL Leverage

  1. Use @haven_fi for non-liquidatable leverage on $SOL, $ETH, $BTC
  2. 100 SOL to $200 = $5k profit (spot) vs. $10k+ with Haven
  3. No margin, no liquidations — just auto-rebalancing risk via @marginfi
  4. Simulate your trade before entering. Cheap, simple, high-upside
