The Next Era of DeFi: From Complexity to Command

Nov 8, 2025

We've seen users push DeFi to new levels of sophistication recently.

They're using Marinade staking tools to migrate Project 0 Meridian stake accounts and mint mSOL, looping it with SOL for leverage at 100% boosted e-mode weight, and collecting MNDE emissions from the Project 0 and Marinade incentive campaign for a positive carry trade.

They're putting their Bitcoin to work in Solana DeFi. Minting zenBTC, supplying to Project 0, borrowing USDC to collect ROCK rewards, using that USDC to mint hyUSD, staking for shyUSD, and locking up in Exponent vaults for fixed stable yield.

And since we introduced Kamino as an integrated venue on Project 0, a new DeFi primitive has emerged: cross-venue interest rate arbitrage looping. Users can now arbitrage rates between assets on different venues and loop in a single click.

OPOS (also NFA).

All of that is happening across multiple protocols, assets, and yield layers, and it works seamlessly. That’s the power of composability. But this kind of strategy requires expertise and an intimate understanding of rates, weights, and risk across venues and protocols.

That’s why we built Project 0 Strategies.

Project 0 Strategies

Strategies turns complex multi-venue composability into something anyone can use. It scans 40+ markets in real time to surface the best yield and arbitrage opportunities across Project 0, Kamino, and soon other venues. Over time, it will become even more powerful, personalized to each portfolio, capable of automated rebalancing, and able to execute advanced multi-step DeFi strategies with a single click.

From Complexity to Command

DeFi is getting more sophisticated. New patterns are emerging every week, and the tools are evolving just as fast. Protocols like Project 0 are simplifying what used to take hours of manual analysis into a single, integrated flow.

As DeFi matures, the goal isn’t to abstract away its complexity; it’s to give users command over it. Automation and intelligence aren’t replacements for understanding — they’re multipliers of it.

The next step is automation. As composability grows, users need systems that help them find opportunities and act when it matters. AI can help power that shift, enabling smarter recommendation engines and real-time adaptive automations across the DeFi ecosystem, including within Project 0 Strategies.

The next evolution for Strategies is exactly that: deeper automation, more advanced one-click action chains, real-time rebalancing, and personalized optimization. Building the command center for Project 0 and for DeFi as a whole.

What does the future look like? Swarms of agents trading autonomously across DeFi, using emerging standards like x402 to coordinate, lend, and manage liquidity on behalf of their human commanders. Perhaps — but before that future arrives, there’s an entire layer of DeFi automation to build out.

Project 0 aims to be the foundation for that future, enabling DeFi participants to access any venue and act on their entire portfolio with personalization, automation, and intelligence.

Strategies v0 is the first step.
