HOW ~17.2% COMPARES TO EVERYTHING ELSE

Our income comes from market-making fees — we provide liquidity to a major decentralized exchange and earn on every trade that crosses our quotes. We hedge our positions to stay neutral to price direction.

Even at our current ~17.2% pace — that's still more than 3x the best income fund on Wall Street, and nearly 6x a bank savings account.

The Strategy Doesn't Need a Bull Market. It Needs Activity.

The single most important thing about DeFi Income is also the simplest: we are not a directional bet. We don't need BTC to go up. We don't need stocks to go up. We provide market-making liquidity, hedge our positions, and earn fees on every trade that crosses our quotes. Whether the market is climbing, falling, or chopping sideways — our income is a function of activity, not direction.

That's why a quiet, steady market produces a quiet, steady grind higher — exactly what we're seeing. 32 dividends since launch. ~17.2% annualized in 2026. Hedged, not directional.

→ Hedged. Uncorrelated. Dividend #33 is $10.34 away.

HOW DEFI INCOME WORKS

Think of it like running a stall at a busy marketplace. We post bids and offers on a major decentralized exchange. Every time a trader hits our quote, we collect a fee and hedge our inventory immediately so we stay neutral to price direction. We don't care whether any asset goes up or down — we care how many people are trading.

32 dividends. ~17.2% annualized pace. Hedged, not directional.
