Liquid Staking DAO Kelp Launched Airdrop Farming Vault

Liquid staking platform Kelp DAO is launching its Gain program, allowing users to earn airdrops and other rewards.

According to an Aug. 13 announcement, Kelp’s Gain allows users to access streamlined strategies to earn additional rewards from their liquid staking efforts. At first, the Gain program will only feature the Airdrop Gain Vault, which simplifies participation in airdrop opportunities across various layer two protocols without the need to manage individual positions.

Kelp Gain Vaults use smart contracts to manage asset deployments and maximize airdrops and rewards across multiple layer two protocols. User deposits are represented by on-chain tokens, which are then used to manage the stake.

Assets deposited in the vault are then allocated to curated reward-earning opportunities. As time goes on, their distribution is re-adjusted to maximize the amount of value earned while minimizing risk.

Kelp claims that this approach offers Vault users access to L2 airdrops but paired with the composability of DeFi. Amitej G, Co-founder of Kelp DAO, said:

“By focusing on targeted strategies and integrating with both L2 protocols and mainnet DeFi yields, we are providing users with a comprehensive, automated solution to maximize rewards potential. This collaboration with our range of partners ensures users benefit from streamlined access to high-growth opportunities with minimal effort.”

The Airdrop Gain Vault will be dedicated to users willing to deposit assets such as  or KelpDAO’s restacked Ethereum (rsETH). Deposits are represented as agETH tokens. Those assets are then bridged to partner layer twos to enhance airdrop potential.

Furthermore, this vault also integrates with mainnet decentralized finance (DeFi) yield earning. In this way, users who deposit their ETH or rsETH can simultaneously participate in multiple DeFi strategies without engaging in complicated strategy building.

The reward-bearing agETH token can also be deployed on DeFi protocols such as Pendle to earn additional fixed yields or speculate on airdrops by earning multi-fold points. The Airdrop Gain Vault is a result of a partnership with institutional crypto platform August as the smart contract developer and Tilapia Capital as the lead strategy partner. Further layer two and DeFi partners include Linea, Karak, Scroll, Pendle, Across, LZ, Spectra, Lyra, and multiple decentralized exchanges.
