BTC/USDbC Aerodrome
About BTC/USDbC Aerodrome
BTC/USDbC Aerodrome is an LP-token autocompounder on Base, with BTC paired with USDbC in the underlying LP position. The strategy provides liquidity to the BTC/USDbC pool on Aerodrome and earns yield from both trading fees on the pair and AERO emissions distributed to liquidity providers.
Any claimed AERO rewards are automatically converted into more of the underlying LP position and added back to the vault, removing the manual claim and conversion steps a user would otherwise need to perform on their own. Autocompounding events run when economically feasible, anywhere from hourly to several days apart, with gas costs socialised across all holders rather than borne by each user individually.
Live since August 2023. Currently indexed at $1K TVL across 2 holders, with a 10.85% 24-hour APY and 21.34% across the trailing 30 days.

Strategy stability
Based on APY volatility over the last 30 days. Higher scores indicate steadier yields.
This strategy currently holds $1K, below our $50K liquidity mark. Thin liquidity can mean higher slippage on entry and exit, and the headline yield can be skewed by a small number of holders.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the current APY for BTC/USDbC Aerodrome?
BTC/USDbC Aerodrome is showing a 24-hour APY of 10.85%, with a 30-day average of 21.34%. Rates are variable and move with trading volume on the BTC/USDbC pair, the AERO emission schedule, and overall liquidity in the pool. The figures reflect the realised yield over the trailing window; they are not a forward guarantee.
How does the autocompounding work?
The strategy holds an LP position in the BTC/USDbC pool on Aerodrome and periodically claims any AERO rewards that accrue. Those rewards are then converted in the proportions needed to add liquidity back into the same pool, increasing the size of the LP position held by the vault and the value of each holder's share. The process repeats automatically; holders are not required to claim, swap, or add liquidity themselves. Autocompounding events run when economically feasible, anywhere from hourly to several days apart, with gas costs socialised across all holders.
Can I withdraw at any time?
There are no withdrawal periods or lockups. If the underlying pool holds enough liquidity to satisfy the request, exits are instant. During periods of low pool liquidity, withdrawal capacity can be limited until liquidity returns. See the risk page for details on how this works.
Where does the yield come from?
Yield comes from two sources. First, trading fees on the BTC/USDbC pool on Aerodrome: every swap between the two assets pays a fee, a share of which accrues to liquidity providers. Second, AERO emissions distributed by Aerodrome to incentivise liquidity in the pool, which the strategy claims and adds back into the position. Both move with conditions: trading fees scale with volume, and emissions scale with the platform's emission schedule.
How stable has the APY been?
Over the last 30 days, this vault's APY has ranged from 16.97% to 25.88%, averaging 21.34%, with measured volatility of ±2.16%. The Strategy stability section above shows where this falls on the scale from very volatile to very consistent.
How much is currently in the vault?
The vault currently holds $1K in TVL across 2 holders. The Historical statistics section above shows how this compares to the vault's 30-day range and lifetime peak.
What are the risks?
Like any onchain yield strategy, this vault is exposed to smart contract risk in both the Harvest contracts and the underlying Aerodrome pool, and protocol-specific risks of the assets it holds. Because the position holds both BTC and USDbC, the value of the position also moves with the relative price of the two assets in the pair: when the two prices diverge, the LP position is worth less than holding the two tokens separately would have been. This is commonly referred to as impermanent loss. AERO rewards partially offset this, but the offset is not guaranteed and depends on emission rates and the magnitude of price divergence. Harvest's core vault infrastructure was audited by Halborn in January 2025. Audits reduce but do not eliminate risk.
