Cross-Protocol Yield Allocation

Aurelia Metavaults are built to allocate capital across multiple protocols β€” automatically. They enable users to deposit into a single vault and gain exposure to a diversified set of yield strategies across different DeFi ecosystems.

This is Aurelia’s answer to fragmented DeFi: one deposit, many sources of yield.

What Is Cross-Protocol Allocation?

Metavaults don’t rely on a single strategy or protocol. Instead, each Metavault is made up of multiple sub-vaults, each targeting a different partner protocol or strategy, such as:

  • Pendle – Yield token strategies

  • GMX – Restaked AVS or GLP-like LPs

  • Aurelia Lending – Lending/borrowing optimization

  • External lending protocols – e.g., Morpho, Aave, Gearbox

  • LP vaults – Concentrated liquidity or stable LPs

  • And many more

Deposits into the Metavault are allocated across these sub-vaults based on a target allocation model, updated over time through automation or governance.

How Allocation Works

  1. User deposits into a Metavault (e.g., USDC Metavault).

  2. The Metavault splits the deposit across multiple sub-vaults each with its own strategy, protocol, and yield profile.

  3. Allocations are based on:

    • Strategy performance (e.g., APR)

    • Risk weighting

    • Protocol parameters

    • Governance signals

  4. Rebalancing happens automatically, moving capital from underperforming strategies to better ones.

  5. Users maintain one vault token, while the underlying assets are working across the ecosystem.

Safety & Constraints

Metavaults include built-in safety features to protect users:

  • Minimum and maximum allocation thresholds (e.g., at least 10% per strategy to avoid over-concentration).

  • Slippage and liquidity checks when allocating or withdrawing.

  • TVL caps per strategy or protocol, updated based on audits, oracle coverage, and historical volatility.

  • Last-block defense and onchain monitoring (via Hypernative).
