How Do Giddy Vaults Work?

Updated over a week ago

Giddy’s staking vaults allow users to earn variable yield on supported tokens like ETH, POL, USDC, and more. Behind the scenes, Giddy integrates with Compound Blue and Gauntlet to deliver optimized yield strategies that balance reward and risk.


Super Charged By Compound Blue & Morpho

Among other from providers like Coinbase and AAVE, Giddy Vaults route many using staking deposits into Morpho-based lending vaults through Compound Blue, an open-source interface that enables efficient DeFi market access on Polygon. Compound Blue helps you supply assets to earn interest and borrow from these markets in a low-cost, optimized way.


Reduced Risk with Gauntlet

Gauntlet runs advanced market simulations and stress tests to continuously optimize vault parameters to keep protocols healthy, sustainable, and reliable.

Using thousands of “what-if” market scenarios, Gauntlet balances yield while putting safety first. It helps avoid insolvency, manage liquidity, and mitigate cascading liquidations.

  1. Pick a Vault – Your vault choices include ETH, POL, USDC, and more.

  3. Earn Passive Yield – Your deposited assets are lent out via Morpho, while Gauntlet continuously optimizes vault parameters to balance yield and protocol health.

  4. Withdraw Anytime – No long lock-up periods or harsh removal penalties—flexible control belongs to you.
