Veda is at the forefront of innovation, pioneering an Actively Validated Service (AVS) to be the first Native Yield Layer in the DeFi stack. Native Yield is all about embedding yield directly into user experiences. Whether it's by default, like earning on capital in an L2 bridge, or through easy opt-in products, the goal is clear: minimize opportunity costs and simplify user adoption for protocols and ecosystems. At only four months old, our protocol has already amassed over $1B in TVL and forged partnerships with blue-chip DeFi protocols like ether.fi.
