The Aptos DeFi ecosystem is evolving rapidly, with concentrated liquidity decentralized exchanges (DEXs) unlocking new levels of yield and capital efficiency. Yet, actively managing liquidity positions remains complex, time-intensive, and high-risk, making it difficult for most users to fully seize these opportunities.

Goblin Finance is developing the next generation of liquidity management standards for Aptos—making everything simpler and more efficient.

Goblin Finance unifies the most effective on-chain and cross-market strategies—automated liquidity management (ALM), delta-neutral yield generation, and LST-based enhanced products—into a single, user-friendly platform, simplifying and enhancing DeFi yield potential.

Backed by the Aptos Foundation and deeply integrated with leading native Aptos protocols, Goblin automatically routes liquidity to the highest-performing opportunities, increasing returns, deepening market liquidity, and fueling sustainable growth across the ecosystem.

Goblin Finance is dedicated to transforming how liquidity providers interact with markets, making advanced automated LP strategies accessible to every user—not just DeFi specialists.

Unlocking Capital Potential: Turn Idle Assets into High-Yield Opportunities

Currently, DeFi on Aptos faces four key challenges:

• Fragmented Yields: Opportunities are spread across V3 DEXs, contract trading platforms, CeDeFi, and staking protocols, leaving users without a unified access point.
• Idle Capital: Large amounts of APT and other assets either sit unused in wallets or earn only basic staking returns, while advanced strategies such as funding rate capture and dynamic LP optimization are difficult for average users to access.
• Missing Yield Layer: Unlike Ethereum, the Aptos ecosystem lacks a mature yield hub that can anchor lending rates, stablecoin returns, and capital flows.
• LST Product Homogeneity and Yield Erosion: Most LSTs only pass through basic staking returns. As these returns decline, the incentive to lock up APT weakens, which puts pressure on the price of APT and challenges the goal of decentralization.

Even within a single market, liquidity providers (LPs) frequently need to adjust price ranges, rebalance positions, and manage impermanent loss—a process that is complex, time-consuming, and risky.

Goblin’s solution is twofold: enable capital to move intelligently across markets, and make LP management more strategic, automated, and actionable.

Goblin Finance delivers a unified platform that aggregates and executes professional-grade cross-market strategies, including ALM, CeDeFi and on-chain delta-neutral capital capture, and LST-enhanced yield flywheels. Through this approach, Goblin transforms idle assets into productive capital and establishes the yield infrastructure that Aptos DeFi needs.

Goblin’s initial product lineup starts with ALM strategies, optimizing concentrated liquidity positions to lower impermanent loss, improve fee capture rates, and dynamically adapt to market volatility—providing a foundation for broader strategy expansion.

Efficiency and Security: How Goblin Vault Works

We engineered Goblin Vault specifically for V3 DEXs on Aptos, applying advanced active management strategies to optimize capital allocation and reduce risk. At launch, two core strategies will be available:

• Classic Rebalance: Automatically concentrates liquidity around the current market price, with auto-rebalancing when prices move outside preset ranges, ensuring continual fee capture and eliminating the need for frequent manual adjustments.
• Static Stable: Designed for stablecoin or pegged asset pairs (e.g., USDT/USDC, stAPT/tAPT), this strategy focuses liquidity near the peg, minimizing impermanent loss and maximizing trading efficiency.

All strategies use an “off-chain computation + on-chain execution” framework, featuring event-driven rebalancing for precise market responsiveness:

• When price movements or asset weights deviate beyond a set threshold, rebalancing is triggered automatically, substantially lowering risk;
• The stablecoin strategy interfaces in real time with external oracles to provide depeg detection and safeguards, maintaining stability even amidst volatility.

Whether you’re new to market making or a professional targeting excess yields, Goblin Vault offers an institutional-grade asset management experience—so you can focus on returns, not operations.

Why Choose Goblin?

• Fully Automated Strategy Engine: Deposit once and the system automatically adjusts to market conditions, asset weights, and strategy parameters—no manual intervention required.
• Expert Team: Core members come from top DeFi protocols and structured product teams, bringing extensive experience in smart contract security and sustainable yield modeling.
• Aligned Incentives: Performance fees are only charged when strategies generate positive returns—“we succeed only when users profit.”
• Ecosystem Synergy: Deep integration with Hyperion allows Goblin Vault depositors to earn Hyperion rewards, maximizing cross-protocol returns.

Goblin is establishing a new liquidity standard for Aptos—transforming LPs from liquidity providers into sophisticated strategists and capital managers.

Roadmap: Driving Continuous DeFi Advancement

Goblin will develop in phases, steadily enabling smarter, more efficient LP strategies on Aptos:

• Expand vault products with delta-neutral, yield-enhanced, and CeDeFi hybrid strategies, fusing the strengths of centralized and decentralized finance;
• Keep enhancing automation, risk protection, and user experience to empower every Aptos liquidity provider;
• Introduce data-driven adaptive algorithms to enhance capital efficiency and enable real-time risk management;
• Advance decentralized governance, inviting community participation to ensure the protocol’s long-term sustainable growth.

Our vision: to build a universal, active liquidity management layer on Aptos, making DeFi liquidity smarter, safer, and more seamless.

Experience the future standard for Aptos DeFi liquidity management.
