Strategy overview
Deposit PYUSD into a Kamino managed strategy. The vault deploys the capital, manages the position, and compounds its returns.
- How it works:
- You deposit a single token and the vault leverages it — borrowing against your deposit and reinvesting — to amplify the underlying yield, auto-managing the position so you don't have to.
- What you hold:
- Vault shares representing your deposited PYUSD and your share of the managed strategy.
- Who runs it:
- Kamino — live since 2022 · audited by 5 firms · no known incidents

- The strategy is more complex than plain lending — an automated looping vault adds moving parts that can each go wrong.
- Control over the protocol's code matters — upgradeable behind a multisig (threshold undisclosed).
- Bad price data can trigger wrongful liquidations — single robust price feed (Scope).

What can go wrong
- Leverage amplifies losses as well as gains, and an adverse move can put the position near liquidation.
- If the looped asset depegs, the vault's effective risk rises sharply.
- Returns depend on the spread between the earned yield and the borrowing cost, which can compress.

How we rate risk
Stablecoin strategies get a 0–100 risk score (lower is safer) built from three areas — Protocol (audits, incident history, track record and admin controls), Strategy (leverage, lock-ups, pool size and yield source) and Asset (the token's peg record, backing, and exit liquidity) — weighted by strategy type — and the weakest area can push the overall number higher (riskier) on its own. The score maps to a grade: A ≤ 22, B ≤ 35, C ≤ 50, D ≤ 70, E above. Grades compare opportunities within our stablecoin catalog — an A is the strongest thing we list (blue-chip stablecoin lending), not a promise of safety. Live events (an active depeg, a reported exploit, a sharp deposit outflow) override the score immediately. Where we lack data, the factor says so and scores cautiously. Non-stablecoin opportunities are not rated. A comparison aid, not advice.
Risk levels are Akashi's own assessment to help you compare opportunities — not financial advice or a safety guarantee. Every DeFi position carries smart-contract and market risk.
