Kelp DAO, a leading liquidity staking platform, is about to launch "Gain Powered by Kelp", which aims to increase users' earning potential through simplified access to multiple reward strategies, airdrops and points mechanisms.

Overview

Gain by Kelp is a vault program that provides users with multiple access points to earn rewards from multiple top L2 networks through a single, diversified strategy. By integrating L2 protocols and DeFi rewards, the program simplifies participation in various DeFi strategies without having to manage individual positions.

What is a vault?

Vaults are essentially smart contracts that automate the deployment of assets according to a prescribed reward farming strategy. This is done by strategy managers, whose decisions encompass yield strategies, the allocation of vault deposits among those strategies, and the periodic rebalancing of those allocations. All of this is done to maximize the vault's returns while mitigating risk.

This enables users to easily maximize their returns across a variety of high-growth opportunities with a single click. Kelp's vault is non-custodial, ensuring that users can freely withdraw funds at any time and have full transparency into the deployment of their assets. As Kelp's infrastructure partner, August will assist in building the vault's smart contracts, while Tulipa Capital will be responsible for managing the relevant strategies.
