Superfluid is a smart contract framework on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) networks that allows for the easy, secure, and fast transfer of assets In real time based on pre-determined rules set forth in agreements. With only one on-chain transaction, the money will flow directly from your wallet to the receiver's in real time--no further transactions are necessary. Superfluid enables constant token flows on-chain with no capital lockups. Money streams will continue perpetually until cancellation or the sender's balance runs out. Money streams can also have their stream rate updated at any time for even more flexibility.
Super fluid was designed with simplicity and ease-of-use in mind. To get started, all you have to do is select a contributor and input instructions. Then, the protocol will automatically follow the instructions that have been set forth. This makes it easy for everyone to get on board and use the system without any trouble.
Note:
It's important to wrap your crypto in order to streamline payment.
Be careful with how the Cancellation works:
Understand that you have to cancel the stream before your balance reaches zero or else you will be liquidated and you will lose your buffer(FAQ).
Paying people quickly for their work can help improve productivity by ensuring that there are no delays in payments that could lead to a dip in productivity. In the past, we didn't have the ability to finance contributor compensation in real time, but now we do. This also helps with automation when it comes to making monthly, recurring, or one-time payments.
Even further, a DAO can use superfluid to DCA into investments, liquidity pool or any subscriptions etc in a single transaction, which means no multiple gas fees.
Entering a financial agreement with someone can be a daunting task. Humans are also prone to making mistakes and being dishonest sometimes which can cause financial loss for the other party. Superfluid helps users to transfer assets in a fair and transparent way. A smart contract is deployed by the receiver and the sender transfers assets to an address associated with that contract. The assets are then sent to the receiver according to the predefined rules of the contract. Superfluid takes care of execution and enforcement. It allows users to enjoy the speed of executing a trade while taking care of the complexities so they don't have to.

What is the deposit when starting the stream?
It is an amount equivalent to 4-hours worth of your stream flow rate. It will be locked into the protocol and you will get it back when you close the stream before your wallet balance hits zero. Streams can’t stop themselves automatically, users need to stop them before their balance hits zero. If the user doesn’t stop their stream before their account balance hits zero, they lose the deposit/buffer.
Why did my stream get liquidated? Why did I lose my deposit?
Streams can’t stop themselves automatically, users need to stop them before their balance hits zero. If the user doesn’t stop their stream before their account balance hits zero, they lose the deposit/buffer.
