SHYON is a token on Solana that tracks the price of iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF. It's issued by Ondo Finance, not by Solflare, and gives you price exposure to the underlying ETF without making you a holder of it. You can hold and swap SHYON in a self-custody wallet such as Solflare.

Why can the price of SHYON differ from iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF?

The price of SHYON is set by on-chain trading on Solana. When the underlying market is closed, there's no live price to follow, and when liquidity is thin, a small swap can move the token's price. A scaling factor, where one applies, also means the token's price won't match the underlying price one for one.

What happens if SHYON has low liquidity?

Low liquidity means a small swap can move the price of SHYON, the spread between buying and selling widens, and selling can cost more than you expect. The token's price can also sit further from the underlying asset. Liquidity on tokenized funds and commodities varies a lot between tokens and over the course of a day.

You buy SHYON by swapping SOL, USDC, or another Solana token for it in a self-custody wallet such as Solflare. The swap settles on Solana, so no brokerage account is involved. Keep a small SOL balance for network fees, and check Ondo Finance's terms first, since availability varies by jurisdiction.

Does SHYON pay dividends or distributions?

Not as separate payments. When the underlying fund pays a distribution, Ondo Finance folds it into the token's scaling factor, so each SHYON represents slightly more of the fund over time while the number of tokens in your wallet stays the same.

When can I trade SHYON?

You can swap SHYON on Solana at any hour, but the fund it tracks trades only during US market hours. Outside those hours, the price of SHYON comes from on-chain trading alone, so spreads can widen and the price can drift from the fund's last close until the market reopens.

Q: Is buying SHYON the same as buying iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF?

No. SHYON is a separate token that tracks the price of iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF. Holding it gives you the price exposure, but not shareholder rights or a direct claim on the underlying holdings. Any redemption into the underlying asset is handled by Ondo Finance for eligible clients under its own terms, not by Solflare.

Q: Who issues SHYON?

Ondo Finance issues SHYON. Ondo Finance issues its tokenized stocks and ETFs through Ondo Global Markets, which holds the underlying securities with custodians and handles minting and redemption for eligible clients. Solflare is a self-custody wallet that lets you hold and swap SHYON; it does not issue, back, or custody the token, so the backing arrangement is the issuer's.

What SHYON tracks

SHYON tracks iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF, a fund that holds bonds, Treasury securities, or loans and pays out the income they generate. Its price moves with interest rates and, for corporate debt and loans, with the credit quality of the borrowers.

Funds holding short-dated debt tend to move little when rates change, while funds holding long-dated bonds can swing sharply. Distributions from the fund are usually reflected in the token rather than paid in cash.

How SHYON works

SHYON is issued by Ondo Finance. Ondo Finance issues its tokenized stocks and ETFs through Ondo Global Markets, which holds the underlying securities with custodians and handles minting and redemption for eligible clients.

What you hold is the token, not the underlying asset. SHYON tracks the price of iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF, but it doesn't give you shareholder rights or a direct claim on the underlying holdings. Minting and redemption are handled by Ondo Finance for eligible clients under its own terms. Solflare is a self-custody wallet for holding and swapping SHYON, and it does not issue, back, or custody the token.

The price of SHYON on Solana is set by on-chain trading. Where liquidity is deep, it tends to stay close to the underlying price. Where liquidity is thin, a small swap can move the price and the gap to the underlying can widen.

When the underlying fund pays a distribution, Ondo Finance folds it into the token instead of paying it out, so each SHYON comes to represent slightly more of the fund over time while the number of tokens in your wallet stays the same.

When can you trade SHYON?

SHYON can be swapped on Solana at any hour, but the fund it tracks trades only during US market hours. Outside those hours there's no live fund price, so the price of SHYON comes from on-chain trading alone and can drift from the fund's last close.

The scaling factor for SHYON

The scaling factor for SHYON is 1.0203. It rises as the underlying fund's distributions are folded into the token, so each token represents slightly more of the fund over time while your token count stays the same. Read the factor as accumulated distributions, not as a price change.

SHYON is issued by Ondo Finance and gives price exposure to iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF, not fund shares, shareholder rights, or a claim on the fund's holdings; redemption terms are set by the issuer.

Solflare is a wallet interface and does not issue, back, or custody this token. Nothing here is financial advice.
