Getting Started
What is ATTRIUS CAPITAL?
ATTRIUS CAPITAL delivers risk-adjusted returns through professionally managed, diversified DeFi strategies. We operate tokenized vaults on Lagoon Finance, providing daily liquidity and full on-chain transparency.
Our vaults combine thoroughly vetted DeFi protocols with active management to optimize yields while maintaining strict risk parameters. Each vault is designed for a specific risk profile and asset class.
How Do Vaults Work?
When you deposit assets into an ATTRIUS CAPITAL vault, you receive ERC-20 tokens representing your proportional share of the vault. These tokens are liquid and can be transferred or redeemed at any time.
The vault's NAV (Net Asset Value) increases as yields are earned and compounded. Your share tokens become more valuable over time. You can submit a redemption request at any time, and it will be settled at the NAV valuation of the next strike.
Who Should Use ATTRIUS CAPITAL?
Our vaults are designed for sophisticated investors who:
- Want professional DeFi yield management without active monitoring
- Seek diversification across multiple protocols and chains
- Value transparency and on-chain verification
- Prefer liquid positions with daily redemptions over locked staking
- Understand DeFi risks and smart contract exposure

Choosing the Right Vault
Select atrUSD if you want:
- Stable value denominated in USD
- Lower volatility risk profile
- Yield from lending markets
- Multi-chain deployment across Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum
Select atrETH if you want:
- ETH price exposure + yield
- Staking rewards combined with lending optimization
- Higher potential returns with increased risk
- Native Ethereum and Arbitrum deployment
Deposits & Withdrawals
How to Deposit
Deposits are processed through Lagoon Finance, a tokenized vault platform that provides the infrastructure for ATTRIUS CAPITAL vaults.
- Connect your Web3 wallet to Lagoon Finance
- Select the ATTRIUS CAPITAL vault (atrUSD or atrETH)
- Enter the amount you wish to deposit
- Approve the token spend (one-time for each vault)
- Confirm the deposit transaction — your deposit enters the queue
- Receive vault share tokens once NAV is struck and deposits are settled
Deposits enter a deposit queue and are processed when the vault manager strikes NAV. At that point, all pending deposits and withdrawals are settled at the newly calculated NAV valuation, and you receive your vault share tokens. Gas fees apply and vary based on network congestion.
Understanding Share Tokens
When you deposit, you receive ERC-20 vault share tokens (e.g., atrUSD-LAGOON or atrETH-LAGOON). These tokens:
- Represent your proportional ownership of the vault
- Increase in value as the vault earns yields
- Are fully liquid and transferable
- Can be redeemed for the underlying assets at the next NAV strike
- Display in your wallet like any other ERC-20 token
How to Withdraw
Withdrawals are processed through the same Lagoon Finance interface:
- Navigate to your vault position on Lagoon Finance
- Click "Withdraw" or "Redeem"
- Enter the amount of shares you want to redeem
- Confirm the withdrawal request — it enters the withdrawal queue
- When NAV is struck, your withdrawal is settled at the current NAV valuation
- Receive underlying assets (USDC or ETH) in your wallet
Daily Liquidity
ATTRIUS CAPITAL vaults offer daily liquidity with no lock-up periods. Under normal market conditions:
Settlement Time
T+1
Next business day
Withdrawal Limit
No Limit
Redeem any amount
Processing
Automated
Smart contract execution
During periods of extreme market stress or underlying protocol liquidity constraints, settlement may extend to T+3. Your vault shares remain transferable even if redemptions are delayed.
Gas Fee Considerations
Deposits and withdrawals require gas fees on Ethereum. Both atrUSD and atrETH accept deposits on Ethereum.
Strategy Deep Dive
Portfolio Construction Methodology
ATTRIUS CAPITAL employs a disciplined, risk-adjusted approach to DeFi yield optimization:
1. Protocol Vetting
Comprehensive due diligence on smart contract security, team reputation, audit history, TVL trends, and historical performance. Only protocols with proven track records are considered.
2. Risk Assessment
Quantitative analysis of smart contract risk, oracle dependencies, liquidation parameters, and correlation to market conditions. Each protocol is assigned a risk score that determines maximum position sizing.
3. Yield Optimization
Continuous monitoring of yield opportunities across multiple chains and protocols. Capital is deployed to maximize risk-adjusted returns while maintaining strict diversification limits.
4. Active Rebalancing
Daily portfolio reviews and rebalancing to capture emerging opportunities and reduce exposure to deteriorating positions. Automated monitoring ensures optimal capital efficiency.
Protocol Selection Criteria
Protocols must meet stringent requirements before being whitelisted for vault deployment:
- Audited by reputable security firms (Trail of Bits, OpenZeppelin, etc.)
- Clear documentation and transparent governance processes
- Compatible with our risk management framework and position limits
Rebalancing Strategy
Vault positions are rebalanced based on a combination of factors:
Yield Opportunity
Shift capital to higher-yielding protocols when risk-adjusted returns improve
Risk Escalation
Reduce or exit positions when protocol risk metrics deteriorate
Liquidity Events
Manage inflows/outflows by adjusting protocol exposures
Position Limits
Enforce maximum allocation per protocol (typically 20-30%)
Performance Attribution
Vault returns come from multiple sources. View the interactive performance and allocation charts on each vault's detail page to see real-time breakdowns of:
- Protocol-level yield contributions
- Historical NAV performance over time
- Current capital allocation across protocols and chains
- APY trends and 7-day changes
Risk & Security
Smart Contract Risks
All DeFi protocols carry smart contract risk. ATTRIUS CAPITAL mitigates these risks through:
Lagoon Audited Infrastructure
All vault contracts are deployed on Lagoon Finance, which has undergone security audits by leading firms. The platform employs proven smart contract patterns.
Multi-Sig Custody
Vault management decisions require multiple signatures from independent parties. No single entity can unilaterally make changes to vault parameters or withdraw funds.
Timelock on Changes
Parameter changes and strategy updates are subject to timelocks, giving users notice and the ability to withdraw before changes take effect.
Protocol Exposure Risks
Vaults deploy capital to external DeFi protocols, each carrying its own smart contract risk. We manage this through:
- Position Limits: Maximum 20-30% of vault assets in any single protocol
- Whitelisted Venues: Only deploy to audited protocols with proven track records
- Diversification: Spread risk across multiple protocols and chains
- Continuous Monitoring: Real-time alerts for protocol anomalies and risk escalations
Transparency & Accountability
Full transparency is a cornerstone of ATTRIUS CAPITAL's approach:
On-Chain Positions
All vault holdings are verifiable on-chain in real-time
Octav Analytics
Third-party analytics dashboard tracking all vault positions
Weekly Reports
Regular updates on strategy, performance, and risk metrics
Open Source
Smart contract code is publicly auditable and verifiable
Important Risk Disclosure
DeFi investments carry significant risk, including potential loss of principal. Smart contract bugs, protocol exploits, market volatility, and liquidity crunches can result in permanent capital loss. ATTRIUS CAPITAL implements extensive risk management, but cannot eliminate all risks. Only invest capital you can afford to lose. This is not financial advice.
