Bitwise Vaults
Curation tailored to vaults, markets, and strategies
Three product lines built on the same institutional standard.
Lending Vaults
Lending vaults take in stablecoin deposits and allocate them automatically across lending markets selected by Bitwise.
Lending Markets
Lending markets let users earn interest by supplying digital assets or borrow by posting collateral. Bitwise curates the eligible collateral and risk parameters to institutional standards.
Strategy Vaults
Strategy vaults run a more complex Bitwise-curated yield strategy beyond lending.

Why Bitwise
Track record of excellence in onchain finance
A crypto-first financial services firm
Bitwise spans the full range of crypto investing and onchain finance—ETPs, staking, private funds, and vault curation—with the operational and regulatory rigor to meet institutional demand.
Deep expertise in structured credit and DeFi
Our vault curation team brings 20+ years of experience in structured credit, fixed income, and quantitative engineering from world-class institutional asset managers, along with deep crypto-native DeFi expertise.
Disciplined risk management
Bitwise vaults begin with rigorous upfront research, with selected risk parameters encoded into automated onchain logic.
Real-World Assets
Real yield backed by real-world assets
Lending against RWAs onchain unlocks deep markets of durable credit.
Access to a growing number of RWAs
Beyond commoditized yield
Most onchain yield today comes from two crowded models: commoditized bitcoin-backed lending or crypto-native yield farming.
Durable, uncorrelated yield
Lending against real-world assets (RWAs) can provide uncorrelated lending yields that aren’t constrained by crypto cycles or onchain liquidity. That makes for evergreen strategies that can scale.
Rigorous vetting
Before inclusion, every asset and protocol undergoes a deep evaluation covering issuer stability, reserve backing, smart-contract audits, and governance.
Precise inclusion standards
Every asset passes institutional credit underwriting before it enters a vault. We favor asset-backed, short-duration, natively onchain structures.
Security
Rigorous onchain security management
Bitwise brings institutional-grade rigor to vault security. Our philosophy prioritizes vigilance by using a multi-layered framework, which is encoded into automated logic and runs 24/7.
Secure Execution
All transactions are executed through ForDeFi's MPC transaction approval process, overseen by Bitwise’s Information Security team.
Real-Time Automated Defense
The Hypernative security platform is integrated for real-time monitoring of malicious activity, enabling the vault logic to automatically respond to threats.
24-Hour Coverage
Global staff provides round-the-clock incident response. If automated defenses do not react to a threat as intended, the team can immediately pause the vault and remediate. Real-time alerts run via Slack and PagerDuty with a standard escalation path.
