What is Lucent?

Lucent is a delta-neutral staking protocol built on Solana. It lets users deposit SOL or USDC and earn yield generated by Luminosity Labs — a quantitative market-making desk operating on Jupiter.

Rather than chasing inflated APY from token emissions or lending protocols, Lucent routes deposited capital to a professional RFQ market-making strategy. The yield is real: it comes from bid-ask spread capture across thousands of fills every day.

Lucent is the interface layer. Luminosity is the engine. Together they form a closed loop: capital flows in, yield flows out.
