FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions about costs, data sources, badges, wallets and the limits of the app.

Cost and access

Does Yielna cost anything?

No. Every tool is free and requires no account. Yielna charges no fee on Earn deposits or withdrawals. The only costs are network gas and any swap or bridge fees, which are shown in the quote before you sign.

Do I need a wallet?

Not for browsing. A wallet connection is requested only in Earn, when you start a deposit or withdrawal. It is never requested when the app loads, and never on this site.

Connections are handled by Privy, an established wallet infrastructure provider. You connect an existing wallet; Yielna does not create one.

Is there an account to create?

No. There is no sign-up, email or password, and your watchlist is stored in your browser. Google and Apple sign-in is planned for a later release, to let you manage funds and on-chain activity from one place without the usual wallet complexity.

What is planned for Yielna?

Yielna is planned to become a social DeFi app, joined as an individual user or as an organisation. Users will have one interface for everything they do in DeFi. Protocol teams will have a profile for their protocols and pools, from which they can manage labelled promotion; it will never change a badge or a risk reading. A creator programme, with selective onboarding and shared revenue, will follow once the revenue model is established, along with partnerships for improved terms and pools exclusive to Yielna users.

No release dates are set: each feature arrives when it is ready. The full roadmap is on the About page.

Data sources

Where do yield and TVL figures come from?

DeFiLlama. APY, TVL and pool data are shown exactly as DeFiLlama publishes them; Yielna does not calculate or adjust rates. Borrowed, staked and pool2 funds are listed separately beside a protocol's TVL rather than added to it. The Sky Savings Rate in Earn is read directly from Sky's contracts.

What data are badges and the risk meter based on?

From on-chain data, including contract control, timelocks and upgradeability, together with verified source code, published audits and the public exploit record. This data is refreshed daily.

Where does market data come from?

Liquid's Co-Invest, through a single read-only connection shared by all visitors. If an asset does not trade on Liquid, the app states that no data is available. When a wrapped token is shown with its underlying asset's data, it is labelled.

How current is the data?

Market data is live. Pool data refreshes on DeFiLlama's schedule, typically every few minutes. This website does not display prices or rates, as static pages cannot keep them current.

Badges and risk

What does a badge mean?

That a protocol or pool meets every requirement for control, published code, operating history, size and exploit history. Protocols can earn green or gold; pools can earn green. Credibility lists the full criteria.

Why does a well-known protocol not have a badge?

A missing badge means at least one requirement is not met or could not be verified, such as single-signer control, no timelock, or unverifiable code. Unverified requirements are never treated as met. A missing badge is not a finding that the protocol is unsafe.

What are the risk meter and the health score?

The risk meter rates every protocol and pool as Low, Moderate, Elevated or High, based on contract, control, yield and liquidity risk. The health score on the Health page is the same reading expressed out of 100. A pool must read Low or Moderate to hold a badge.

Why are some pools labelled 'Collateral market' or show no yield?

Some pools hold large deposits but currently pay no yield, typically collateral deposited to borrow against. These are labelled on the protocol page. The feed, Compare, Battle and the simulator include only yield-paying pools.

Are the yields guaranteed?

No. Rates vary and protocols can change them. Yielna reports source data and does not present best-case figures as expectations. A badge is also not a guarantee: audited, well-governed contracts can still fail.

Earn

What do I hold after a deposit?

sUSDS, which accrues the Sky Savings Rate. The number of shares stays fixed while their redemption value grows, so the app displays the redeemable value.

Which stablecoins and chains are supported?

Any stablecoin supported by Osero, on every chain Earn supports. Withdrawals can usually go to a different chain or stablecoin. Every transaction is shown before you sign. The Earn page covers routes, signatures and supported chains.

What happens to my deposit if Yielna shuts down?

Your funds are unaffected. sUSDS is held in your own wallet through Sky's contracts, and Yielna never takes custody. You can redeem through Sky or any other compatible interface.

Where does the risk lie?

In third-party systems: Sky's contracts and rate, Osero's routing, and any bridge used for cross-chain transfers. Security describes what the app can and cannot access.

Limitations

Can Yielna place trades?

No. The market data connection is read-only, the app has no trading functionality, and trade requests are declined.

Is the chatbox an AI?

No. It is rule-based and answers only from live market data. When data is unavailable, it says so. It does not use a language model.

Does Yielna give investment recommendations?

No. Funding, positioning and leverage data help identify crowded markets. They are risk indicators, not trading signals. Nothing in Yielna is financial advice.
