Yelay V3

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

DeFiLlama publishes the exact rules used to aggregate on-chain balances into the headline TVL figure shown on this page. The methodology below is the team's own source-of-truth description.

Counting totalAssets held by vaults.

If a contract or vault isn't in this list, its balance does not contribute to the TVL displayed on Mantapex or DeFiLlama.

A further $1.9M sits in the protocol's native staking modules — these deposits are typically locked, vote-bonded, or earning a share of fees, and they reduce the freely circulating float that can hit the market.

Market cap and supply figures are sourced from DeFiLlama's price feed (which reconciles CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, and on-chain DEX prices). Treasury and staking values reflect on-chain balances controlled by the protocol at last sync.

Yelay V3 is published as a versioned release inside the Yelay Protocol 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.

Yelay V3 is a Yield Aggregator — a decentralised exchange where users swap assets against on-chain liquidity pools rather than a central order book. It is deployed across 3 chains, including Ethereum, Sonic, Base. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Yelay V3 operates on 3 networks (Ethereum, Sonic, Base), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 99% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Ethereum-staking, staking, Ethereum), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts.

Yelay V3 is one of 7 Yield Aggregator protocols Mantapex tracks in this category. Direct peers ranked by total value locked include CIAN Yield Layer, Yearn Finance, Fluid Lite, and 3 more. These peer protocols collectively secure $1.2B in deposits, giving you a frame of reference for whether Yelay V3's own TVL is at the top, middle, or tail of the category.
