Onchain Capital Allocator · Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum +5
The Spark Liquidity Layer automates the deployment of Sky-issued stablecoins such as USDS, sUSDS and USDC across chains, DeFi protocols and real-world asset strategies. It is large by TVL, but it is institutional infrastructure rather than a product most people use directly.
ScoreScore 7.6 out of 10TVL $2.97B+12.4% - 2
Veda
Onchain Capital Allocator · Ink, Ethereum, Optimism +10
Veda is a vault infrastructure platform that lets exchanges, wallets and protocols offer yield products to their users. It has about $1.79 billion in TVL on DefiLlama, but it is built for businesses rather than retail depositors.
ScoreScore 7.6 out of 10TVL $1.70B−4.1% - 3
Lagoon
Onchain Capital Allocator · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base +19
Lagoon is vault infrastructure that lets curators launch and run on-chain yield strategies, with about $161M in TVL across 22 chains listed on DefiLlama. It suits users who can assess individual curators, because the strategy risk sits with them.
ScoreScore 7.3 out of 10TVL $156M−0.7% - 4
Aera V3
Onchain Capital Allocator · Morph, Base, Ethereum +2
Aera V3 is an onchain treasury management protocol from the Gauntlet team, holding about $176 million in TVL across five chains. It suits DAOs and treasuries seeking automated strategies, but fees and V3 audit status are not clear from public sources.

D2 Finance
Onchain Capital Allocator · Hyperliquid L1, Arbitrum, Base +4
D2 Finance offers actively managed derivatives strategies packaged as ERC4626 vaults on several chains. It targets users who want fund-style exposure on-chain, but returns depend on the managers and fees are not published publicly.
ScoreScore 7.0 out of 10TVL $23.4M−5.9% - 6
Mitosis
Onchain Capital Allocator · BNB Chain, Linea, Arbitrum +9
Mitosis is a Layer 1 network that turns liquidity positions into programmable assets usable across chains. Its pitch is clear, but on-chain TVL is small and fee details are not published publicly.
ScoreScore 6.5 out of 10TVL $1.25M−2.5% - 7
Moonwell Vaults
Onchain Capital Allocator · Base, Optimism
Moonwell Vaults is a capital-allocation layer tied to the Moonwell lending protocol, running on Base and Optimism with about $8.7 million in TVL. Public details on strategy and fees are limited, so the review rests on a small set of facts.
ScoreScore 6.4 out of 10TVL $8.17M−11.2% - 8
Sommelier
Onchain Capital Allocator · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism
Sommelier offers automated, rules-based yield vaults on Ethereum, Arbitrum and Optimism, run by its own validator set rather than a multi-sig. TVL is now under $1 million, so it is a small protocol with a clear design.
ScoreScore 6.3 out of 10TVL $916K−0.5% - 9
Rigoblock
Onchain Capital Allocator · Arbitrum, Optimism, Ethereum +4
RigoBlock is a long-running protocol for deploying non-custodial smart vaults, now aimed at both human operators and AI agents. Its safety claims are specific, but usage on-chain is small.
