Overview

Dera Finance develops and maintains the Dera Protocol: a permissionless yield infrastructure layer for digital assets. The Dera Engine, the protocol's core execution layer, continuously allocates and rebalances capital across governance-approved DeFi integrations, compounding returns directly on-chain. The protocol is live on Ethereum mainnet, with all allocations, rebalances, and exchange rate updates publicly verifiable.

DERA is the first product on this infrastructure: a yield-bearing, fully liquid token backed by USDC. The exchange rate reflects yield from governance-approved DeFi integrations. Rather than distributing yield through supply changes, returns compound into TVL, increasing the redemption value of each token over time. Supply changes only when participants mint or redeem. Any participant can redeem at the prevailing on-chain exchange rate at any time, without approval from any party.
