Upshift Vaults-as-a-Serivce (VaaS)

Overview

Users deposit assets into Upshift’s vaults, where capital is allocated to carefully curated DeFi strategies through secure, non-custodial infrastructure. By focusing on simplicity and reducing liquidity fragmentation, Upshift provides a seamless user experience while delivering transparent and consistent yields.

Upshift’s vision is to make DeFi yield opportunities accessible to everyone, without the need for complex strategy management.

Benefits for Users

Simplified Access to Yield

Upshift’s vaults eliminate the need for users to navigate complex DeFi strategies. By offering one vault per token and integrating multiple strategies under the hood, users can effortlessly earn yield without managing multiple positions or protocols.

Secure, Non-Custodial Management

Users retain control over their assets at all times, as funds are deployed through Upshift’s secure, non-custodial infrastructure. Strategists can manage yield strategies but cannot withdraw or access user funds, ensuring robust security through smart contract enforcement.

Transparent Yield Generation

Every interaction, from capital deployment to yield realization, happens transparently on-chain. Users can track where their funds are allocated and how their yield is generated, fostering trust and clarity throughout the process.

Cross-Chain Flexibility

With Upshift’s native multi-chain support, users can benefit from yield opportunities across different blockchain ecosystems without the need for manual bridging or reallocation of funds. This flexibility helps users tap into better yields on various chains seamlessly.

Benefits for Partner Protocols

Seamless Yield Strategy Integration

Upshift streamlines DeFi participation by handling the complexity of yield generation on behalf of protocols. This allows your users to access yield opportunities without needing to navigate intricate DeFi strategies themselves, enhancing engagement and reducing friction in user onboarding.

Optimized Yield Performance

Upshift’s robust vault architecture is designed to optimize yield through carefully curated strategies. By leveraging cross-chain capabilities and tapping into diversified DeFi opportunities, protocols can offer attractive yield programs that enhance user satisfaction and retention while reducing the need for costly user incentives.

Liquidity Efficiency

Upshift helps protocols optimize their liquidity by allocating capital to whitelisted strategies in a structured manner. This ensures capital is deployed efficiently across different opportunities without overextending liquidity pools, supporting healthier liquidity provision and market stability.

Scalable Capital Deployment

Upshift’s infrastructure provides protocols with the flexibility to scale yield strategies seamlessly across multiple chains. By managing capital allocation and strategy deployment across various DeFi ecosystems, Upshift allows protocols to swiftly support new integrations and initiatives, driving expansion without the overhead of managing multiple liquidity sources.

Non-Custodial, Secure Yield Management

Upshift’s non-custodial approach ensures that users maintain full control over their assets. Strategists managing vault strategies are restricted to interacting with whitelisted tokens and contracts, ensuring that all capital is deployed within predefined, secure parameters. This setup provides peace of mind for protocols users, as funds remain safeguarded at all times.

Transparency and Control

Through the use of subaccounts and transparent on-chain activity, protocols gain full visibility into how yield strategies are being executed. This clean separation of strategies ensures protocols can maintain accountability and transparency while tracking yield performance in real time.
