🥩 Beefy Finance

Website | Twitter
Best For: Compounding yields
Risk Level: Low

About:

Tried and true DeFi yield aggregator Beefy Finance allows users to earn compound interest on their crypto holdings, producing heightened yields for investors with safety and efficiency at the front of mind.

Using smart contracts that automatically claim, swap, and redeposit rewards (autocompound), Beefy automatically maximizes the yield from various DeFi deposit opportunities,‌ such as ‌automated market makers (AMMs) like Aerodrome and Uniswap. Beefy helps farmers harvest beefier yields from their crops by saving time, increasing efficiency, and circumventing risk compared to manual yield farming.

EARLY ACCESS
From BlackRock to Ethereum

What does BlackRock’s former crypto lead see in Ethereum that others still miss?

Joseph Chalom joins Bankless to take us inside the IBIT/ETHA ramp, why BUIDL launched on Ethereum mainnet, and the simple – but powerful – framework he uses to value ETH as “high-octane money.”

We break down staking inside ETFs, the tokenization roadmap from stablecoins to the S&P in your wallet, and the real mechanics of ETH treasury companies – mNAV premiums, ATMs, converts, and the transparency metrics that matter. Less hype, more architecture: if security, liquidity, and 24/7 settlement are the future, this is the bridge.
