Zelo Finance Protocol - Lossless Lottery Prize Savings Protocol on Solana

Zelo is a lossless savings protocol where every deposit earns a chance to win big without any risk to the principal.

### How does it work?

All the user deposits are deployed into a [Jito](https://www.jito.network/) liquid staking pool, which earns yield. Winners are chosen verifiably randomly every week. Winners get the accrued yield while all participants keep their deposits.

### &#x20;Features:

#### Lossless:&#x20;

Only the yield resulting from the user deposits will be distributed to winners. The actual user deposits will stay intact and can be withdrawn anytime.

#### Instant:

User deposits are instantly deposited into a liquid staking pool, and withdrawals are instantly withdrawn from the liquid staking pool.

#### Non-Custodial:

You are in total control of your funds. Zelo program directly deposits and withdraws through the liquid staking pool.
