About Sommelier

Sommelier is an asset management protocol built on the Cosmos SDK that enables dynamic, intelligent DeFi vaults on Ethereum. The vaults can do portfolio optimization, trade long-short, borrow-lend, or even farm. Additionally, Sommelier’s architecture allows independent strategists to leverage the power of off-chain computation by bringing algorithmically optimized strategies on-chain, dynamically adapting to market conditions, and providing enhanced opportunities and risk mitigation to vault users. All vaults are enabled by audited smart contracts and controlled by protocol governance.

The strategy has seen rapid growth in the past month and a half, with total asset value crossing $15M in recent days. The strategy has attracted a wide range of interest from small depositors to institutional investors.

Reasons for Our Allocation to Real Yield USD

The allocation was based on the impressive performance of the strategy, which we view as a strong hedge against inflation, as well as the thorough audits and backtesting it underwent before going live. The incentives from the Sommelier community pool also made the decision even more compelling.
