What are the benefits of Multi-strategy Smart Vaults?

The primary advantage of holding vcSmartVault is its ability to outperforming the market. Additionally, vcSmartVault abstracts the complexity of DeFi by offering an objective methodology that filters out noise and focuses on sustainable opportunities. Monthly (or more frequent when necessary) rebalancing ensures users access the latest high-yield opportunities without having to research every new protocol and asset to analyze the risks and rewards.

How are components and strategies selected? (Methodology)

To be included, strategies must have the following attributes:

  1. Be listed on DeFi Llama Yield Rankings and have the attribute of "no IL."

  2. Have at least $1M in TVL.

  3. Have a 30-day APY at least 400 basis points higher than the backward-looking APR of sUSDe.

  4. Not have locking mechanisms or caps.

  5. For fixed-term strategies, mature at least three months from the rebalance date; the initial composition may have a shorter duration due to the timing of the formal product launch.

  6. Be compatible with VaultCraft and not require additional engineering work to make it compatible. VaultCraft may take on additional engineering work to make a strategy compatible but is not obligated to do so.

  7. Be separate from aggregators or actively managed strategies.

  8. No protocol can account for more than three strategies or 60% of the composition.

  9. Protocols underpinning these strategies must be open-source and have published audits.

Additional considerations:

  • All airdrops and rewards will be absorbed into the token and realized as yield by token holders.

  • All fixed yield positions will be held to maturity, and yield will be based on the current APY, not the 30-day average APY.

  • The composition will consist of at least 2 strategies at all times that meet these criteria.

  • The included strategies will be weighted equally.

  • A maximum of five strategies will be included at any given time.

  • The product will be rebalanced monthly.

  • The product will not be rebalanced if there is no necessary recomposition (i.e., added or removed component).

  • If a component remains in the composition and its weight is between 17.5% and 22.5% of the index, it will not be reweighted.

Risks

As with any product offering higher yields, the associated risk is increased as well. vcSmartVault's smart contract risk increases with the more strategies that are included in the Smart Vault.
