Ulysses

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

Ulysses is published as a versioned release inside the Maia Dao Ecosystem protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

Ulysses is a Bridge protocol that moves assets and messages between blockchains, locking value on the source chain and minting or releasing a representation on the destination. It is deployed across 12 chains, including Ethereum, Metis, Optimism, Binance and 8 other chains. The codebase has been independently audited (4 reports on file). DeFiLlama tracks 1 historical event for this protocol since 2024.

Ulysses runs a multi-chain deployment, with smart contracts live on 12 networks. Roughly 92% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Ethereum, Metis, Optimism), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. 4 public audit reports are linked from DeFiLlama, which is on the higher end of transparency for the DeFi sector — most protocols of comparable TVL publish far fewer.
