Seed-deposit requirement for new market listing
Sanctum's assessment for RD-F-071 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Adapted factor: applied to Infinity LST admission rather than lending-market listing. New LSTs admitted to Infinity pool require minimum 1,000 SOL AUM allocation to enter the 20% new-LST tranche. Underperforming LSTs are unstaked each epoch via automated rebalancing. The sanctum-lst-list repository (github.com/igneous-labs/sanctum-lst-list) is the canonical whitelist; Router and Unstake programs enforce it. Threshold is modest (1k SOL ~$140k) and protocol-internal rather than a hard on-chain seed-deposit guard enforced at listing transaction. Yellow because the admission threshold exists but is low relative to protocol scale and is not a cryptographically enforced seed deposit.
