Brink Vaults
Lendle x Brink
Vaults Overview (Powered by Brink.money)
Each vault on Lendle’s Earn page is backed by Brink’s on-chain vault infrastructure, built on to of the ERC-4626 standard, which automates yield generation and risk-managed allocations. Depositors simply provide the underlying asset and receive a vault share token; behind the scenes, the system handles everything else.
Operational Workflow Highlights
User Deposits – A user deposits the underlying token into the corresponding Lendle vault.
Brink Engine Integration – The deposit is directed into the Brink vault infrastructure. The “Brink Engine” takes over.
Strategy Calculation & Optimization – The engine continuously assesses yield opportunities, risk metrics and current utilization to compute the optimal allocation strategy.
Dynamic Allocation & Rebalancing – The system deploys (and if needed redeploys) funds into vetted DeFi protocols and markets. Rebalancing occurs frequently (hourly) to adapt to changing yield conditions and maintain capital efficiency.
Risk Management & Transparency – Throughout the lifecycle, real-time risk assessments monitor volatility, network or protocol risk, and ensure that all smart contracts are audited and verifiable.
Withdrawal & Share Redemption – Users can redeem their vault shares at any time and receive underlying assets plus accrued yield, while the backend manages the unwinding of the deployed positions.
Vault-by-Vault Detail
USDe Vault
Underlying Asset: USDe.
Mechanism: When you deposit USDe into the vault, your funds are routed by Brink into high-quality stable-asset yield markets and isolated pairs that use USDe, selecting destinations with favourable APY, low risk and adequate liquidity.
Rebalancing Logic: The engine monitors stable-asset markets and may rotate capital when yields drop or utilization saturates a pair.
User Benefit: You gain exposure to optimized stable-asset yield without needing to choose markets, the vault auto-compounds returns and adapts to changing conditions.
WETH Vault
Underlying Asset: WETH.
Mechanism: Upon deposit, the vault hands off WETH to Brink, which then allocates across ETH-related yield sources: e.g., ETH-denominated lending pools, liquid staking derivatives, isolated pairs with ETH.
Rebalancing Logic: The engine watches ETH yield opportunities, and dynamically moves WETH accordingly to maximize risk-adjusted return.
User Benefit: Earn yield on your ETH exposure without manually shifting assets or managing staking, the vault handles routing to the best available strategy.
WMNT Vault
Underlying Asset: WMNT.
Mechanism: When you deposit WMNT, the vault uses Brink’s routing to deploy into Mantle-ecosystem-native yield strategies: isolated pairs that include MNT, liquidity incentives, or lending markets involving MNT.
Rebalancing Logic: Because ecosystem incentives and yield sources vary, the engine is particularly active in rotating exposures, evaluating which MNT pairs give best yield while managing ecosystem risk.
User Benefit: Participate passively in the Mantle network’s growth and yield opportunities via MNT, while Brink handles the technical details of strategy execution.
What This Means for Users
Non-custodial & transparent: You retain control of your assets, vault contracts follow ERC-4626 standards, and you can verify allocations, performance and rebalances on-chain.
Hands-off yield: Deposit once into a Lendle vault and Brink takes care of deployment, optimization, and compounding.
Dynamic optimization: Rather than static yield strategies, these vaults actively rotate capital based on market conditions, leveraging Brink’s real-time decision engine.
Risk-aware: Through frequent on-chain monitoring and rebalancing, the system targets best returns on user's funds.
Composability: Since they’re ERC-4626 vaults, these funds integrate smoothly with other DeFi protocols.
