Introducing the New Nest

March 23, 2026

A clearer, more transparent way to earn real-world yield onchain

Today we’re launching a completely redesigned Nest.

This is not a visual refresh.

It’s a full rebuild of the Nest experience designed to make it easier to understand, easier to trust, and faster to start earning stable yield backed by real-world assets.

Nest lets you:

  • Deposit stablecoins into institutional-grade RWA strategies
  • Mint yield-bearing vault tokens
  • Earn real yield from assets like private credit and U.S. Treasuries
  • Use those tokens across DeFi to boost returns

All fully onchain. No KYC.

The new experience brings clarity, transparency, and composability directly into the product.

Why we rebuilt Nest

Over the past months we spoke with users, ecosystem teams, and partners about how Nest could improve.

The feedback was consistent.

People loved the idea of earning real-world yield onchain, but before depositing meaningful capital they wanted clearer answers to a few key questions:

  • What exactly are these vaults?
  • Where does the yield come from?
  • How can I verify the underlying assets?
  • What risks exist?
  • How do these vault tokens work across DeFi?

In other words β€” the biggest barrier wasn’t yield.

It was clarity and trust.

The new Nest is designed to solve exactly that.

Institutional yield, now easier to explore

The new landing experience walks users through the entire Nest model in a single narrative.

Instead of fragmenting across multiple pages, the experience now explains:

  • What Nest is
  • How yield is generated
  • Which asset strategies exist
  • How vault tokens work
  • How to start earning

Users can go from learning about Nest to making their first deposit in just a few clicks.

Real-world asset strategies you can actually understand

Nest now organizes vaults into clear asset classes, making it easier to understand where yield comes from.

Current strategies include:

Payment Financing
Short-duration receivables strategies designed for consistent yield.

Institutional Credit
Private credit opportunities sourced from leading financial institutions.

U.S. Treasuries
Tokenized exposure to government debt markets.

Crypto Basis
Delta-neutral strategies capturing spreads in crypto markets.

Diversified Index
Blended portfolios of multiple real-world asset strategies.

Each vault clearly surfaces the information users need before depositing:

  • APY
  • TVL
  • Strategy description
  • Supported networks
  • Key risk factors

Start earning in three steps

Nest follows a simple model:

1. Deposit stablecoins
Users deposit supported stablecoins such as pUSD or USDC.

2. Mint a vault token
The vault mints a token representing the user’s share of the strategy.

3. Earn yield automatically
Returns accrue directly into the token price over time.

4. Redeem anytime
Vault tokens can be redeemed back to stablecoins based on vault liquidity.

No lockups.
Fully onchain.

Transparency built directly into the product

Trust should not live in documentation.

It should live in the interface.

The new Nest introduces a structured transparency layer showing:

  • Onchain asset verification
  • Vault liabilities and activity
  • Institutional custody structures
  • Smart contract audits
  • Stablecoin backing
  • Liquidity and redemption mechanics

Vault pages now include dedicated sections for:

  • Overview
  • Transparency
  • Performance
  • Risk

This allows users to verify exactly what backs each vault before committing capital.

Vault tokens that work across DeFi

When users deposit into a Nest vault, they receive a vault token representing their position.

These tokens are fully composable across DeFi.

They can be:

  • Held to earn yield
  • Used as collateral
  • Integrated into DeFi strategies
  • Deployed across supported ecosystem apps

Nest is designed not just to generate yield β€” but to make that yield programmable.

Borrow against Nest vault tokens, directly in the app

One of the biggest additions in the new Nest experience is integrated lending.

Nest now brings Morpho-powered lending markets directly into the interface, allowing users to supply Nest vault tokens as collateral and borrow against them.

This unlocks powerful new strategies.

Users can now:

  • Supply supported vault tokens as collateral
  • Borrow pUSD directly inside Nest
  • Monitor LTV and liquidation thresholds
  • Track borrow rates and utilization
  • Manage positions without leaving the app

For more advanced users, this makes it significantly easier to loop yield-bearing Nest assets and build leveraged strategies.

Instead of jumping between protocols, users can now move from: deposit β†’ mint vault token β†’ collateralize β†’ borrow β†’ redeploy all inside the Nest interface.

We have a lot more features coming soon to this experience to make looping RWAs even better, so stay tuned.Β 

Faster onboarding to your first deposit

Nest now includes a lightweight onboarding system designed to help new users reach their first deposit faster.

The new Next Best Actions guide users through key steps like:

  • Getting pUSD
  • Selecting a vault
  • Making a first deposit
  • Exploring additional yield opportunities

This reduces friction for new users while helping existing users discover more of the platform.

A deeper vault experience

Vault pages have been rebuilt to make decisions faster and clearer.

Each vault now includes:

  • Strategy explanation
  • APY methodology
  • Historical performance
  • Risk disclosures
  • Redemption mechanics
  • Integrated mint / redeem interface

Users can move from research β†’ deposit in a single screen.

Building the foundation for programmable real-world yield

This redesign is just the beginning.

The new Nest architecture enables us to expand into:

  • Additional asset classes
  • Deeper DeFi integrations
  • Advanced yield strategies
  • Institutional analytics and reporting
  • New financial primitives built on vault tokens

Nest is building the infrastructure for programmable real-world yield onchain.
