Presenting: Elemental Carbon
Carbon is officially live on our main site!
One portfolio. Complete visibility.
We've rebuilt the Elemental experience around unified holdings, performance tracking, personalized quarterly reports, and a new generation of vaults.
Let's take a look.
1/
The front end of Elemental looks cool.
The backend is cooler. IMO.
Frontend = simplicity.
Backend = details, details, details.
“DeFi made simple” is the experience we want for our users. But behind that simplicity, DeFi is anything but simple.
We need to monitor everything.
Did you know? Elemental also does market making and on-chain liquidity provision.
It is one of the ways we generate yield for depositors, while simultaneously providing a valuable service to our partners and the rest of @solana
And because we believe in transparency, our partners get access to the same live dashboard we use. They can monitor positions, liquidity and performance tick by tick, live.
They decide the setup and the range.
We handle the rest (DeFi made simple extends to our partners too!)
We have been testing this product for more than half a year, and the results have been excellent.
In our testing, @elementaldefi was able to provide almost 10x better liquidity depth per dollar than previous LP arrangements, materially improving execution and reducing slippage for DeFi users.
That matters.
Better liquidity means better swaps.
Better swaps build confidence.
Confidence builds deeper, more resilient markets.
Yield is only part of the equation. Good infrastructure should create value for everyone involved.
If you are an RWA project building on Solana and want to give your users a better DeFi experience, let’s chat.
Elemental gud tech.

[ What's Next? ]
A huge thank you to everyone who participated in our beta.
Your feedback has been instrumental in shaping Carbon into what it is today.
But we're far from finished.
We believe great products are built through continuous iteration, and that the little details make all the difference.
Keep the feedback coming. We'll keep building.
DeFi made simple.
Elemental gud tech.

[ V1 Site ]
Prefer the old interface? We've got you.
The original Elemental site remains accessible at:
https://t.co/WsCT3I7AnZ
We'll keep it running until the end of 2026, giving everyone plenty of time to get comfortable with Carbon.
No rush. Move at your own pace.
7/
[ Reports ]
In TradFi, portfolio reporting is standard. So why is it still so uncommon in DeFi?
Carbon introduces personalized quarterly reports covering:
• Portfolio value and performance
• Deposits and withdrawals
• Fund movements throughout the quarter
Proper reporting shouldn't be a luxury.
6/
[ Explore ]
Finding the right vault should be simple.
We've redesigned the Explore page to make comparing our vaults much easier.
Whether you prefer the flexibility of Elemental Lend, with instant deposits and redemptions, or our Fixed Rate vaults operating on 5 day epochs, everything is now easier to navigate.
5/
[ Schedule ]
One of our favorite quality-of-life upgrades.
Deposits queued? Check.
Unstaking in progress? Check.
Positions ready to claim? Check.
Everything that needs your attention is now conveniently organized in one place.
No more jumping between vaults just to figure out what's happening.
4/
[ Blended Yields ]
Deposited across multiple vaults? Smart. Diversification can help spread your risk instead of concentrating everything in one strategy.
Carbon now shows your blended yield across your entire portfolio, giving you a clearer picture of what your capital is actually earning.
2/
[ Performance Tracking ]
Moved funds between vaults? No problem.
Carbon tracks your performance across your entire portfolio, even as your positions change.
Switch between different time frames and view your USD and SOL holdings separately.
Because 1 SOL = 1 SOL.
3/
Every investment carries risk, but this misses how ONyc actually absorbs losses.
There's no junior tranche in ONyc itself, but there is a loss absorption layer:
- Premium is paid to OnRe upfront and held in their reserve.
- This premium is broken up roughly into two halves:
a) into yields for users (that current 11% you see) and
b) into what it think might be the expected loss
- Claims within those expectations are paid out of that expected loss reserve (it does not touch NAV).
- OnRe has replayed real events against its book. Hurricane Ida, Typhoon Jebi and Storm Bernd all came out at zero net NAV impact.
- Hurricane Ian, the costliest US storms on record, came out at about 3.5% NAV drawdown.
tl;dr yes, holders carry the risk beyond what's expected, but it would take a major event to impact NAV
Disclosure: @elementaldefi works closely with OnRe
If you don't want to be actively monitoring the risks, Elemental created ENDAS (Elemental Natural Disaster Alert System) specifically for OnRe's books. This allows us to rapidly unwind positions into stables if we detect something that could be serious enough to move the needle.
As ONyc expands across DeFi, so does the need for visibility into the strategies built around it.
@elementaldefi has updated its dashboard to show every strategy allocating to ONyc and earning OnRe Points, giving depositors a direct view of their OnRe exposure within Elemental's interface.
DFX claims are now live!
With safety in mind, we've set up the claims architecture to be conservative. Claims go through a faucet and we'll be topping it up over time as claims come through.
If you have a large claim and there isn't enough DFX tokens in the faucet, let us know and we'll make sure you're taken care of.

am i missing something or are stablecoin yields on @kamino actually good again?
- USDC: 8-9% APY
- USDG: 7-8% APY
been like this for almost a month now.
@solana defi is so back.
