# What is pie.fun

{% hint style="warning" %}

### The future of trading is narrative-first.

pie.fun is building the **programmable ETF layer** for crypto.

\
We let anyone buy or create a basket of tokens, centered around a thesis, a meta, or a meme, all in one swap.

### **Why** pie.fu&#x6E;**?**

Because in crypto, narratives move faster than most people can follow. \
And the more tokens there are, the harder it gets to keep up.

Most people don’t want to pick winners. \
**They want simple and directional exposure.**\
Not just to a token — but to an idea. A trend. A movement.

That’s what a **basket 🧺** is.\
**Directional, curated, rebalanced, and onchain.**

### Launch your own Basket

In TradFi, only institutions issue ETFs.&#x20;

Onchain, anyone can.&#x20;

If you're a real trader, sharp researcher, or signal-driven curator, **launch your own basket in 30 seconds.**&#x20;

Earn trading fees as others follow 💰

[pie.fun](https://t.co/n52xsvZepg) is where your alpha becomes a tradable asset class.

### Why now?

Everything is being tokenized — memes, RWAs, time, behaviors.\
But owning tokens isn’t the hard part anymore.\
**Knowing what to own is.**

That’s why pie.fun exists.\
We turn alpha into a tradable asset class.\
And make following a narrative as simple as a swap.

### **Key Features**

Pie.fun removes the guesswork by bundling tokens into thematic baskets, making it easy to get exposure to entire trends. Think of it like an **ETF fund for crypto**—a single basket that gives exposure to multiple assets within a theme.

* **Curated Baskets** – Tokens are grouped by theme, so there’s no need for deep research.
  * *Example:* A [Solana DeFi Basket](https://pie-fun.gitbook.io/pie.fun/pie.fun/examples-of-live-baskets/top-solana-defi-by-coingecko-usdsoldefi) with JUP, RAY, ORCA, KMNO, and DRIFT—so there’s no need to track them all individually.
  * *Example*: Solana DePIN by Messari&#x20;

* **One-Click Simplicity** – Just swap SOL for a basket token, and instantly hold a mix of assets without managing multiple trades.
  * *Example:* Buying [Binance Alphas on Solana ($SOLALPHA)](https://pie-fun.gitbook.io/pie.fun/pie.fun/examples-of-live-baskets/binance-alphas-on-solana-usdsolalpha) automatically spreads funds across the top 10 tokens chosen by Binance Alpha Spotlight.

* **Rebalancing** – The baskets update over time to maintain optimal allocation, so there’s no need for constant adjustments.

* **Easy Exit** – Basket tokens can be sold anytime for SOL, making it simple to enter and exit positions. There is no expiry date&#x20;
