Score history
This rating is re-checked every month. A point is recorded for every check, so a flat line means we looked and nothing moved. Hover anywhere on the chart to see what moved that month, and by how much.
The Problem
DeFi yield is dominated by either single-strategy delta-neutral books (concentration risk) or pure lending yields (low real returns). Smaller, non-Ethereum chains lack a native multi-strategy basis-trading dollar.
The Solution
Avant operates a multi-strategy market-neutral book on Avalanche, issuing 1:1 USDC-backed avUSD and a staked yield-bearing savUSD, with a junior-tranche MAX token that absorbs losses first in exchange for boosted yield.
Why it Matters
Two-tranche senior/junior loss waterfall (Ethena does not split tranches), multi-strategy diversification beyond pure basis trading, native deployment on Avalanche, and a 1-week cooldown 'MAX' boosted variant for risk-on yield seekers.
