Introducing winETH: Save, Win, and Support Public Goods

Win-Win: Everyone wins

PoolTogether is a protocol designed to make saving fun and rewarding. By depositing tokens, anyone can have the chance to win prizes without ever losing their principle. The more you save, the better your odds of winning. But today, we're taking that concept even further.

We’re excited to introduce winETH, a new prize vault powered by PoolTogether and fueled by Aave yield on Optimism. This vault not only rewards savers but also supports public goods — making it a win-win for everyone!

What’s winETH?

winETH is a PoolTogether prize vault that lets you stake your USDC and win on multiple levels. First, by simply saving, you become eligible for daily prizes in the PoolTogether prize pool. But there’s more. 33% of the vault’s yield is donated to worthy causes. You save, you win, and you contribute to the greater good.

The first beneficiary is Protocol Guild. After one month, depositors vote to select the next public good to receive funding. And while you’re supporting these causes, you still get the chance to win from an Optimism prize pool of 27.5 ETH, with a 6.6 ETH grand prize waiting for its next lucky winner.

Bonus Rewards

Good deeds don’t go unrewarded! Over the next six months (until April 3rd, 2025), winETH will distribute 87,982.84 OP tokens as bonus rewards to depositors. These rewards are based on your time-weighted average balance and accrue in real-time, claimable weekly.

You can deposit into winETH through winETH.org, Pooltime, or Cabana—it all counts. The key is simply having a deposit, and you’ll be eligible for those OP tokens!

Beneficiary: Protocol Guild

Protocol Guild is a collective that funds the work of Ethereum's core maintainers, the people responsible for developing and safeguarding Ethereum’s Layer 1. Open-source work often lacks sustainable funding, but Protocol Guild changes that by ensuring that 181 (and growing) core contributors are financially supported, enabling them to focus on critical R&D.

By depositing into winETH, you’re helping accelerate Ethereum’s open-source development, a key component of the Web3 ecosystem’s future.

See you by the pool! 🏆✨
