Introducing unifiBTC & unifiUSD Vaults!

We’re thrilled to unveil unifiBTC and unifiUSD Vaults, marking an exciting expansion of the Puffer ecosystem beyond ETH and unlocking new yield opportunities for the broader crypto community!

These vaults are a significant leap forward, offering competitive yields powered by Nucleus DeFi strategies and enhanced with $CARROT rewards — bridging sustainable returns with active participation in $PUFFER Season 2 governance.

Powered by Nucleus

These vaults leverage Nucleus, the default yield provider for networks, to deliver seamless and sustainable returns. By embedding yield directly at the network layer, Nucleus eliminates the opportunity cost of participating in new ecosystems, allowing users to earn competitive yields across a variety of assets.

This partnership empowers the Puffer ecosystem with robust, automated DeFi strategies while aligning with Nucleus’s mission to make yield a default feature across the crypto landscape.

Nucleus is built on the same code as the widely used Seven Seas vault, which has been audited by 0xMacro, Spearbit and Pashov.

Fees

Withdrawal fees may vary depending on market liquidity and the underlying assets’ available depth. Users may incur minimal fees (a few basis points) when redeeming.
