Sturdy (SN10)

Sturdy (SN10) is a decentralized yield optimization protocol that empowers users to create asset allocation algorithms capable of managing substantial on-chain assets. By leveraging advanced analytics and AI-powered algorithms, users can optimize the distribution of funds across various yield sources. This innovative approach allows for efficient control over millions of dollars in real assets, enabling a more dynamic and responsive financial landscape.

Miners operating within the Sturdy subnet receive asset allocation queries from aggregator applications, which specify the asset type, allocation amounts, and eligible yield sources. For example, a total of $50 million in USDC could be strategically distributed among multiple lending pools. Each miner’s algorithm computes the best possible allocation strategy based on real-time data, which is then evaluated by validators who select the highest-scoring configurations to rebalance funds on-chain after a wait period that allows for yield assessment.

Through a meticulous scoring mechanism, validators determine the effectiveness of various allocations based on actual yields achieved after 12 hours. Allocations that generate higher returns enhance miners’ scores, promoting competition and continuous improvement within the network. This system not only incentivizes innovation among miners but also fosters a robust decentralized finance ecosystem designed to maximize returns for users utilizing Sturdy’s capabilities.
