Juicebox

Juicebox is a programmable funding protocol on Ethereum that lets creators, DAOs, and indie builders raise money, issue tokens or NFTs, and manage treasuries transparently. Its core business is providing open-source smart contracts for 'pay' and 'cash out' functions, which anyone can integrate into their own website or app without platform lock-in.

Key strengths: fully open-source and auditable, with rulesets that can only be changed after a fixed duration plus an edit deadline, preventing sudden rug pulls. It supports automatic splits of payments to contributors, scheduled token rewards, and borrowing against project tokens for liquidity without selling. The fee is fixed at 2.5%, with no fees on incoming payments or zero-tax cash outs.

Market pain points addressed: traditional crowdfunding lacks transparency and fund control; projects fear sudden rule changes by owners; platforms impose lock-in and variable fees. Juicebox solves these by putting all rules on-chain, making them inspectable, and allowing projects to evolve rules safely with public notice.

In the past six months (2026-03-12 to 2026-09-12), Juicebox has continued operating its V4/V5 protocol, with the NANA revnet collecting fees and JBX holders governing via token voting. The buyback hook now services all inbound payments to the JBX project, and the ecosystem remains active with ongoing transactions on juicebox.money. No major negative events were reported in this period.
