What Makes a DeFi Strategy Actually Sustainable?
DeFi is shifting from yield chasing toward strategic capital deployment models DeFi strategies must be evaluated beyond surface level yield numbers shown A visible return is easy to admire, but much harder to evaluate without understanding the source. Most users see the visible rate first and assume it is close to what they will ultimately keep. The visible number says very little about the costs required to maintain the position. Once you stop trusting the dashboard on its own, you start ask...

If You Can’t Explain Yield, You Are the Yield
The Problem With “Easy Yield”DeFi has done an incredible job at simplifying access to yield. Open an app. Deposit assets. Watch the APY update in real time. It feels frictionless. Almost too frictionless. Because behind that simplicity is a system that is anything but simple. What looks like easy yield is often built on layers of complexity you don’t immediately see.When the Number Becomes the NarrativeAPY has become the headline metric of DeFi. It’s the number users optimize for. The number ...

How Do Concrete Vaults Actually Work?
Demystifying DeFi Vaults: What Your Shares Really MeanYou deposit into a vault, receive your position, and then you notice a few key numbers: shares, eRate, and NAV. At first, it can feel like learning a new language. What do these numbers actually represent? How do they relate to your money? Let’s walk through it from a simple, user-first perspective.Shares and eRate: Your Piece of the SystemWhen you deposit into a vault, you’re not just putting funds somewhere—you’re getting ownership. Thin...

Why DeFi Needs Vault Infrastructure
Decentralized finance has evolved into one of the most dynamic sectors in the digital asset ecosystem. What once started as a handful of lending protocols and decentralized exchanges has expanded into a vast network of platforms operating across multiple blockchains. Today, users can access hundreds of protocols offering liquidity pools, lending markets, derivatives platforms, and complex yield strategies. While this abundance of opportunity is one of DeFi’s greatest strengths, it has also in...

The Future of Onchain Finance
The Future of Onchain Finance Is Managed, Composable, and Invisible Early DeFi proved something radical: money can live natively on-chain. But it also revealed a hard truth: raw primitives alone don’t create mass adoption. Wallets, pools, farms, bridges, and dashboards gave us access — not usability. The next phase of onchain finance isn’t about adding more protocols. It’s about abstracting complexity into structures that feel closer to real financial products. Onchain finance is evolving fro...
