What this vault actually does

The Gauntlet USDC Prime vault aims to optimize for risk-adjusted yield across large market cap and high liquidity collateral markets.

What breaks this vault

The honest version. Every structural failure mode this vault is exposed to, ranked by severity. If you want to know whether to invest, start here.

Cap-weighted utilization is 86.1%, leaving little idle buffer. Large same-day redemptions may queue behind active loan repayments.

Primary loan or collateral asset is a stablecoin. A sustained depeg below 99 cents impacts NAV and disables liquidation routing for non-USD collateral.
