About Strata Markets

Structured Yield.
Redefined by Strata Markets.

Strata Markets is a generalized on-chain risk-tranching protocol that transforms any yield strategy into structured, tokenized financial products — giving every participant the risk-reward profile they choose.

Ethereum DeFi Protocol Risk Tranching Structured Yield
Our Mission

Making Risk Explicit,
Yield Accessible

Strata Markets was built on a simple but powerful idea: every investor deserves to choose their own risk profile, not inherit an opaque blended one. Traditional DeFi protocols offer a one-size-fits-all APY where hidden risks are bundled together, leaving users without real choice.

By introducing fully on-chain risk-tranching, Strata Markets separates yield into two distinct, tokenized layers — senior and junior tranches. Each tranche is transparent, composable, and tradeable. Whether you are a conservative capital allocator seeking stable yields or an aggressive participant chasing amplified returns, Strata Markets has a tranche designed for you.

What Strata Markets Does
Strata Markets transforms yield-bearing assets into structured financial products using its Dynamic Yield Split (DYS) mechanism — fully on-chain, permissionless, and composable.

Risk Tranching

Split any yield strategy into senior and junior tranches, each with clearly defined risk and reward profiles. No more hidden, bundled risks.

Dynamic Yield Split

The DYS mechanism automatically allocates yield between tranches in real time, ensuring fair and transparent distribution without manual intervention.

Composable Tokens

Senior (sr) and Junior (jr) tranche tokens are fully permissionless ERC-20 tokens, freely usable across the DeFi ecosystem — lending, liquidity pools, and more.

Multi-Strategy Support

Strata Markets is strategy-agnostic. It works with any on-chain or off-chain yield source, from stablecoin funding rates to delta-neutral strategies and beyond.

Points & Rewards

Earn Strata Markets protocol points for participating in markets. Points track your contribution and unlock additional incentives as the ecosystem grows.

Battle-Tested Security

The Strata Markets protocol has undergone multiple independent audits from leading security firms. Audit reports are publicly available in our documentation.


How the Technology Works
Strata Markets uses a novel Dynamic Yield Split mechanism to allocate yield between senior and junior tranches in real time.
  • 01

    Deposit Underlying Asset

    Users deposit yield-bearing assets (e.g., USDe, NUSD) into the Strata Markets protocol vault. The underlying strategy continues generating yield as normal.

  • 02

    Dynamic Yield Split (DYS)

    The DYS mechanism continuously monitors the vault's yield and splits it between the senior and junior tranches according to protocol parameters and market conditions.

  • 03

    Receive Tranche Tokens

    Depositors receive either senior (sr) or junior (jr) tranche tokens — fully transferable ERC-20 tokens representing their position and its associated risk-reward profile.

  • 04

    Use Tokens Across DeFi

    Both srTokens and jrTokens can be freely used across partner DeFi protocols — as collateral, in liquidity pools, or traded on open markets.

Senior Tranche

Protected & Predictable

The senior tranche (srToken) has priority on all cash flows from the underlying strategy. Junior tranche capital acts as a first-loss buffer, providing an additional layer of protection for senior holders.

Junior Tranche

Amplified & Aggressive

The junior tranche (jrToken) absorbs losses first, but in exchange earns a risk premium from the senior tranche and amplified upside when yields are strong. Ideal for risk-tolerant participants.
