Market Opportunity

Liquidations are a structural feature of DeFi, not a trend

Lending protocols require liquidation mechanisms to remain solvent. Whenever markets move and borrowers become under-collateralized, liquidations occur by design.

That creates a durable opportunity:

• Volatility increases liquidation frequency

• Higher TVL increases the absolute liquidation surface

• More leverage increases liquidation sensitivity

As long as on-chain lending exists, liquidations remain a consistent source of activity and profit.

Why Solana specifically is attractive

Solana’s environment makes liquidation strategies more scalable than many other chains:

1) High throughput and low fees

• Lower transaction costs allow tighter profit thresholds

• More attempts can be made without fees dominating outcomes

• Execution strategies can iterate quickly

2) Competitive but still inefficient markets

Liquidations are competitive, but execution quality varies dramatically:

• many operators run brittle bots

• many miss opportunities due to infra failure

• many execute with poor routing or safety logic

This produces real edge for systems built to operate reliably under stress.

3) Strong lending ecosystem growth

As Solana’s DeFi lending TVL expands, liquidations grow with it:

• more positions

• more leverage events

• more liquidations during market moves

VULTR is designed to ride that curve by scaling with the ecosystem.

Who the product is for

VULTR targets users who want exposure to liquidation yield but do not want:

• the complexity of bot operations

• the risk of third-party custody

• the time commitment of active trading

Typical profiles:

• DeFi participants seeking alternative yield sources

• stablecoin holders looking for strategy-driven returns

• users who prefer transparent, on-chain vault mechanics

Why vaults are the right “distribution format”

Liquidation profit is traditionally captured by specialized teams. Vaults are the cleanest way to distribute access because they:

• aggregate capital efficiently

• simplify the user experience to “deposit/withdraw”

• allow a single execution layer to operate at professional quality

• return profit via share appreciation without requiring manual coordination

Strategic expansion path

While VULTR can begin with a focused target (e.g., Marginfi), the opportunity expands naturally:

• add additional Solana lending markets

• broaden liquidation sources as TVL grows

• optimize routing and execution as new liquidity venues emerge

• introduce deeper risk controls as capital scales
