What is Brink?
Brink is an intelligent yield allocator that automates the process of earning yield onchain. It simplifies DeFi for users by dynamically allocating capital to the highest-yielding opportunities across multiple blockchains, protocols, and strategies, all while managing risks in real time. Built for seamless integration, Brink powers yield features in wallets, CeFi platforms without requiring manual oversight.
Why now?
The DeFi landscape is exploding with fragmented yield opportunities across chains, but most users and platforms struggle with the complexity of optimization, risk assessment, and cross-chain execution. With total value locked surpassing $200 billion and new protocols launching daily, Brink arrives at a pivotal moment to automate yield maximization, reduce exposure to underperforming strategies, and make onchain earnings accessible to everyone.
What's the long-term vision?
Brink envisions a future where yield allocation is as effortless as setting it and forgetting it. We plan to expand beyond current chains to support emerging L2s, integrate with traditional finance rails for hybrid yield products, and foster a ecosystem of developer tools for custom strategies. Ultimately, Brink aims to be the universal yield engine for the multichain world.
Is Brink just another yield aggregator?
No, Brink goes beyond passive aggregation by incorporating active intelligence: real-time rebalancing, protocol-specific risk scoring, and adaptive logic that learns from market volatility. While aggregators route to static pools, Brink's engine proactively hunts, evaluates, and shifts capital to outperform benchmarks.
Where does the yield come from?
Yield is sourced from a diverse pool of DeFi primitives, including lending markets, liquidity provision, staking rewards. Brink's allocator prioritizes sustainable real yield over speculative incentives, factoring in impermanent loss, slashing risks, and token emissions to deliver compounded returns.
How does Brink mitigate risks for your funds?
Risk management is core to Brink's design. It continuously monitors asset exposure, protocol health and chain stability, automatically minimizing risk by withdrawing from high-volatility strategies during downturns. Features include customizable risk profiles, whitelisted protocols, and battle-tested routing to prevent exploits, with full transparency through dashboards and audit reports.
