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
CeDeFi yield products ask depositors to trust an off-chain trading desk with no way to check that the strategy is actually hedged. Users see a headline APY and a custodian's name, and nothing else.
The Solution
ZEROBASE routes stablecoin deposits to a custodial account at Ceffu where external fund partners run a delta-neutral book, and publishes zero-knowledge proofs that the book's delta spread and leverage stay inside declared limits, verifiable on zkVerify without revealing positions.
Why it Matters
It is the first stablecoin yield vault to attach a machine-verifiable ZK attestation of a trading book's risk constraints, backed by the team's own real-time proving network. The attestation covers risk parameters only — not reserves, solvency, or the existence of the positions it describes.
