With Utila, @Vault_St adjusts onchain yield strategies with granular wallet controls and less custom adapter development. See how the team structures permissions and transaction checks in our latest customer story. utila.io/case-study/vault-st…

Where is CARRY's capital deployed? We are happy to announce a partnership with @OctavFi to make CARRY's portfolio transparent, from onchain RWAs to offchain delta-neutral strategies. Explore the allocations across protocols, chains and assets in one dashboard: vaultstreet.octav.fi/app/CAR… xitter.cf/Vault_St/status/210820…

so here is the story of CARRY When we went to the drawing board on the high yield product, the ask from the investors was to combine: - pls be liquid, no material lockups - pls no cash drag from redemption settlement cycle - pls high yield and low fees - pls no stupid sh*t in the vault. we wanna rely on your DD and monitoring - building yet another leverage loop aggregator? wtf pls no. do something funky, delta neutral is cool - pls can we borrow against it when needed (actually wait, we just wanna outright loop it) How about all of that in one product? Our tremendous team at Vault Street did a f**king great job shipping it with CARRY. Super proud to work with these legends. And the partner teams whose products we chose to integrate? Absolutely killing it. When you see Superstate, Midas, Hastra, Centrifuge in our vaults' allocations, it's not random. Man, it's because these are great products! Together, we help people make money, and make it without the stupid sh*t.

We allocated Hexens treasury capital into CARRY. Leveraged RWA exposure paired with delta-neutral strategies only works if the risk is structured, not just passed through. CARRY launches with continuous monitoring in place. That's why we're in. Congrats @Vault_St on the launch.

There are so many vaults rn that they are becoming a commodity. Still, they can be broadly divided into two categories. You have either a boring vault that yields on par with T-bills, or a high-yield construct backed by "black-box mandate". CARRY fills that gap - targeting 12%+ APY with transparent RWA backing and liquidity sleeve, making it a decent mid-term liquidity management tool. And yes, if you are keen to leverage that - the market on Morpho is already open (with target borrows @ 7%), so reach out to arrange liquidity there!

primeUSD for the conservative, CARRY for the yield-hungry. Glad to see the lineup growing! 🚀

The 2021 RWA vintage was about tokens with no redemption rights and underwriting by clowns Today we have real infra, real protections, and professional credit teams. Specialty credit is now sourcing capital faster onchain than in tradfi Golden era of onchain finance is starting

Love to share this research piece with broader community. Well done @MidasRWA and @Wellington_Mgmt on structuring this one! mWIN fills a genuine gap in the tokenized fund market, which up to now has clustered at two extremes: - ultra-low-risk MMFs on one end, - high-yield specialty asset-backed facilities on the other A balanced, investment-grade portfolio offering a meaningful, diversified yield pickup is a distinct proposition in the current RWA landscape. Access to high-capacity leverage via @SentoraHQ vault on Morpho allows investors to amplify returns to 12-14% expectations. Vault Street has now enabled allocations into mWIN through primeUSD and our upcoming high yield product. If you look to get a piece of exposure to instruments like this, invest with Vault Street.
New research is live: mWIN - Midas Wellington Income Opportunities, tokenized by @MidasRWA An actively managed, multi-sector investment-grade fixed income strategy run by Wellington Management's Financial Reserves team. $36M+ onchain.

Very good breakdown of zeitgeist. Makes sense to mention also that equity basis trade is not only an exchange risk but also wrapper risk on the inventory side depending on where you hold it. One way or another, full principal amount is exposed to something on credit/op side, even if you hold only off-exchange collateral; and exchange risk is only on a portion of total amount. But still, 10% on the properly structured delta neutral trade has a bunch of alpha 😉

Institutional capital requires security controls that operate continuously rather than a one time snapshot. At Vault Street, continuous monitoring is part of the infrastructure protecting capital from day one. Glider Monitor continuously checks our contracts and their dependencies, monitors critical invariants and real-time activity, and can replay newly discovered exploits against our contracts to identify exposure to emerging attack vectors. This sits alongside audits, access controls, onchain limits and automated circuit breakers as part of our defense in depth approach. The risk landscape is dynamic and our security infrastructure is built to be the same.
Allocated capital needs continuous coverage, not a one-time assessment. That’s why @Vault_St launched with Glider Monitor in place from day one primeUSD is an investment-grade fixed-income vault: tokenized US Treasuries, AAA rated structured credit. Glider Monitor checks their contracts against new vulnerabilities as they surface on mainnet, watches what they depend on, and verifies the invariants that keep Vault Street healthy.

In a covered call strategy, you are selling some of the upside of the asset, also known as selling delta. In a conservative strategy, you are selling short-dated options at reasonable distance from current price, and slightly longer dated options at higher distance, so that you remain relatively close to 100% delta on the portfolio. Typically farming call premia gives you positive expected value over time, but the outcomes are lumpy and there is still exposure. Running this within LBTC means that there can be in practice situations when BTC inventory inside LBTC decreases over a period of time. Which makes LBTC a floating NAV instrument rather than a 1:1 claim. Also, when you sell calls, you would need to margin your counterparty's exposure to you, so you keep inventory with a third party. So, a few questions to address here: 1/ is there a stability buffer to offset negative APRs? I would do one 2/ how is the collateral held, and is it triparty settled or sitting with the counterparty
The first iteration of $LBTC established demand. The second is built for scale. Same token. Same integrations. Same mint and redeem logic. What changed is the yield-engine: from emissions that fade to options that scale. If you hold LBTC today, there's nothing to do.

Vault Street is proud to support the launch of $USTB on Kamino. This is the first RWA market originated by Vault Street, and our first crosschain deployment into the @Solana ecosystem. It’s now live and available to primeUSD depositors. Onboard now to access primeUSD at 8% APY
Tokenized U.S. Treasury fund shares are now usable as collateral on Kamino. @SuperstateInc USTB, the Invesco Short Duration US Government Securities Fund with $950M AUM, is now live with support from @Vault_St, bringing institutional Treasury exposure to onchain credit markets on @solana.

It does not stop to astonish me. Why can't they get a waiver to trash-talk uncle Kim. Is it like a scheme to psyop the world into believing it works like a piece of garlic against vampires? Only to break it to pull off the biggest heist in the industry some day
North Korean hackers have stolen $6B+ in crypto — and they've been getting hired as devs across the industry for years. So I went undercover as a recruiter and interviewed one. There's one question none of them can answer. DON'T MISS IT! Tune in at 4 PM ET 🎧 xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1YxNrbben…

We have been looking into CLO markets since late 2025, and have invested into JAAA previously. And for primeUSD, we have again chosen it as a key part of the vault! Why: JAAA is a cash+ instrument with an outstanding combination of 120-150bp yield pickup over the rate curve, and credit quality. Credit enhancements of its underlying CLOs allow the whole portfolio to be rated AAA, higher than U.S. Treasury instruments. If you are a curator or a lending operator looking to onboard quality RWAs - work with @centrifuge and @Vault_St to integrate JAAA
New research is live: JAAA, the Janus Henderson Anemoy AAA CLO Fund, tokenized by @centrifuge. JAAA holds $687M in AAA-rated CLO tranches, the largest and longest-running tokenized AAA CLO fund, run by Janus Henderson team managing the $25B+ JAAA ETF, with custody at @jpmorgan.
