Anthony Bassili

Head of Asset Allocators & Tokenization, Coinbase

When there’s no obvious directional move… clipping coupons is a great way to spend your risk capital. I like what I’m seeing from @gauntlet_xyz vault strategies these days. Onchain is demonstrably better than tradfi.

Keep being impressed by the execution of the @gauntlet_xyz team on the Morpho stack. Deep dive on their approach to vault curation.

What We Offer

Strategies covering every major theme, asset, and chain in DeFi that matters

Exposure to every theme in DeFi that matters

Capital allocators gain exposure to the most advanced opportunities in onchain capital markets. Among these: lending, levered ETH restaking, and perpetual futures. Our partner vaults provide exposure to novel protocols and underlying assets like real-world assets (RWAs).

For every risk appetite

We tailor vaults by risk profile. Allocators can balance capital preservation, steady appreciation, and opportunistic aside.

Our quantitative researchers scour the blockchain for the most innovative markets and allocate vault funds towards these supply opportunities.

Our vaults are build on leading L1s like Ethereum mainnet and Solana as well as more gas-efficient L2s like Polygon and Coinbase’s Base.

Denominated in high liquidity assets on premiere protocols

Our vaults are denominated in the most secure, liquid, and time-tested digital assets in crypto.

These include stablecoins like USDC, USDT and DAI to liquid tokens backed by BTC and ETH like WBTC, WETH, LBTC, and cbBTC to more innovative digital assets like SOL, hJLP, hyETH, and restaked ETH.
