Strategy Types
The 14-type strategy taxonomy with risk scores.
Each vault is classified into one of 14 strategy types. The strategy type determines the base complexity score in the Platform & Strategy vector.
Simple Strategies
Low attack surface, minimal dependencies.
| Type | Score | Description | Example Protocols |
|---|---|---|---|
lending | 10 | Single-asset lending pool | Aave, Compound |
savings | 9 | ERC-4626 wrapper over single yield source | Sky (sUSDS, sDAI) |
staking | 9 | LST wrappers | Lido, Rocket Pool |
isolated_lending | 9 | Isolated collateral markets | Morpho Blue |
Moderate Strategies
Some complexity, managed dependencies.
| Type | Score | Description | Example Protocols |
|---|---|---|---|
multi_market | 7 | Curator-managed multi-market allocation | MetaMorpho |
restaking | 7 | AVS delegation | EigenLayer |
auto_compound | 6 | Single-protocol auto-compounder | Beefy |
fixed_rate | 6 | Yield tokenization | Pendle |
liquidity_provision | 5 | LP position management | Curve, Uniswap, Balancer |
points_farming | 5 | Points-focused strategies | Various |
Complex Strategies
High attack surface, multiple dependencies.
| Type | Score | Description | Example Protocols |
|---|---|---|---|
yield_aggregation | 4 | Multi-strategy routing across 2+ protocols | Yearn |
leveraged_lending | 3 | Leveraged lending loops | Various |
delta_neutral | 3 | Basis trade strategies | Various |
options_derivatives | 2 | Options writing, structured products, DOVs | Various |
Default Protocol Mappings
When a vault's strategy type isn't explicitly classified, the protocol default is used:
| Protocol | Default Strategy |
|---|---|
| Aave | lending |
| Compound | lending |
| Morpho | isolated_lending |
| Yearn | yield_aggregation |
| Beefy | yield_aggregation |
| Sky (Maker) | lending |
| Pendle | fixed_rate |
| Curve | liquidity_provision |
| Uniswap | liquidity_provision |
| Balancer | liquidity_provision |
| EigenLayer | restaking |
| Lido | restaking |
| Rocket Pool | restaking |
| Convex | yield_aggregation |
Unknown strategy types default to a score of 7 (neutral Core).
