DeFi

Offer third-party lending, vault, liquid staking, restaking, and LP yields through the same Yield API objects and actions.

Offer yields from third-party DeFi protocols (lending markets, vaults, liquid staking, restaking, and liquidity pools) without integrating each protocol yourself. Each opportunity is a yield object in the Yield API: you discover it, request an enter or exit action, and sign the transactions yield.xyz constructs.

Categories

Category	What you supply and hold	Public type
Lending	Supply one asset to one lending market; hold a supply position that accrues the variable supply rate	lending
Vaults	Deposit into a protocol or curator vault; hold vault shares whose value follows the strategy	vault
Liquid staking	Stake a network asset through a protocol; hold a transferable receipt token	liquid_staking
Restaking	Restake ETH or a liquid staking token through a restaking protocol; hold its liquid restaking token	restaking
LPing	Provide liquidity to a DEX pool; hold an LP position	liquidity_pool, concentrated_liquidity_pool

Each category index explains what differs for that category and links its protocol pages.

Discover DeFi yields

Call GET /v1/yields with types (for example lending or vault), and narrow by providers, networks, or inputTokens. The response is project-scoped: it returns the yields enabled for your API key’s project, not every integration yield.xyz supports. See Discover.

Coverage

• Providers: every DeFi protocol yield.xyz integrates, with its categories and networks.
• Yields: which categories are available on which networks, and how to list the yields enabled for your project.
• Stablecoins: stablecoin strategies across these categories.
