Catalysis - Mainnet is live!

Infrastructure to natively integrate risk coverage into DeFi vaults. Purpose-built for Institutions.

[Catalysis - Mainnet is live! @0xcatalysis]

Catalysis is live on Ethereum.

Introducing Covered Vaults.

DeFi vaults with built-in risk coverage, backed by real delegated capital, and enforced onchain 🧵👇

[Catalysis - Mainnet is live! @0xcatalysis]

Catalysis Cover lets a curator take any existing yield-bearing vault and wrap it in a "covered" version that carries a live insurance policy.

Depositors keep earning the same yield as before - but now their principal is protected against strategy losses up to a defined limit. No separate policy to purchase. No claim form to submit. The protection resolves automatically at the moment of withdrawal.

"The protection is delivered to each depositor individually at the moment they actually realize a loss - the vault's share price always reflects what the strategy is genuinely worth."

Couldn't have explained it better!

Over $100B in DeFi sits unprotected. That’s why the @0xcatalysis team tapped us to engineer their core risk infrastructure.

We built a seamless on-chain insurance layer for ERC-4626 vaults that settles shortfalls automatically at withdrawal.

Working with SigmaPrime has been a high-quality experience across every engagement.

The team moves quickly without cutting corners — the depth and comprehensiveness of each review is evident from the first draft.

They identify issues we hadn't anticipated, communicate clearly throughout, and make the retesting process straightforward and efficient.

It's the kind of rigorous, collaborative approach that actually gives a team confidence in what they're shipping.

Great working with the Catalysis team again on the audit of their core and coverage smart contracts 🔒

Risk committees can't sign off on positions they can't characterize.

That's what has been blocking allocator capital from DeFi.

April 2026 just made the gap legible.

Here's what needs to be true going forward. 🧵

DeFi doesn't need fewer events to mature.

It needs to start pricing the events it already has.

That's the institutional unlock.

DeFi's first vault-native risk coverage infrastructure.

Sigma Prime (@sigp_io) just wrapped up their final audit of the Catalysis stack.

All findings have been resolved and closed. This concludes our series of audits to make our coverage stack as robust as possible.

Here's what it means and what's next.

With the audit complete and contracts upgraded, we're opening ETH deposits into our flagship covered vault, curated by @gauntlet_xyz.

This is vault-native risk coverage, live on Ethereum mainnet.
