DeFi Core 8
Eight blue-chip DeFi protocols across lending, DEX and yield. UNI, AAVE and SKY anchor the basket on real fee revenue. LDO covers liquid staking, MORPHO adds top-three lending TVL, PENDLE captures yield trading, MKR closes the MakerDAO original lineage at a small reference weight. The 2026-05 refactor removed the stale-DeFi cluster (CRV, COMP, SNX, DYDX) and replaced it with protocols still accruing fees today. Designed for thematic conviction on the DeFi category without picking a single vertical, BTC-correlated by design. Diversification benefit is intra-sector. Roughly tracks the 'DeFi index' that crypto-native funds quote internally.
Max expected loss, 95% confidence, historical.

We are refining the weighting and rebalance cadence on this index. Trade access opens once the methodology stabilises. In the meantime, our methodology paper covers the current state of the construction. ODFC8 stays on the catalogue with a live NAV reading.
