Today we’re announcing RockSolid’s $2.8M pre-seed fundraise and launching our platform to the world! RockSolid vaults let anyone access the best of DeFi rewards with a single click. For protocols, asset issuers and DATs, it’s a platform to integrate that single-click experience
1/ Excited to share that RockSolid has raised $2.8M in pre-seed funding led by @CastleIslandVC w/ backing from @Rocket_Pool, @GSR_io, @kindredventures, @theBBFund, @ideoVC, @StanfordSBA, and others. Today, we're also launching the first official rETH vault with @Rocket_Pool.

1.5% is the key number. We’re just getting started on vault #1
Update: @rocksolidHQ is now two months in since launch... And they have attracted a very hearty bundle of deposits into their inaugural RocketPool $rETH Vault! Currently TVL sits at $19.1M in USD terms (despite $ETH crashing by over 40% in the two months since they launched!) -

Translation: we completely lost developers to Claude. Turns out it's a lucrative market. Please please give us another shot. Pretty please.

This misses the subtlety in Yield Farming. There is yield farming without impermanent loss. Vanilla lending in blue chip protocols and with with blue chip collateral, but that pays incentives because their business plan is willing to pay for TVL yields great rewards for

Vaults are genuine innovation in crypto. They can improve both returns, risk management and UX. BUT BUT BUT, details matter. Weeks like this you find out how vaults and curators approach risk. Hint: We're RockSolid.
TLDR: -DeFi exists on a risk curve -vaults are at one point on that curve and serve a specific set of needs - well-managed vaults can mitigate risk -not all vaults are created equal -transparency, trust, and integrity matters -RockSolid strives to be better than the 'norm'
