About CIAN
CIAN positions itself as the "Yield Layer" of DeFi, an automated yield platform. Its core business consolidates multiple yield sources—including LST (Liquid Staking Tokens), LRT (Liquid Restaking Tokens), RWA (Real-World Assets), and funding rates—and dynamically reallocates them across strategies such as Recursive Staking (RS) and Recursive Restaking (RR). Users simply deposit assets, receive receipt tokens, and earn optimized yields without manual management.
Market pain points: DeFi yield management is highly complex—users must identify opportunities, monitor positions to avoid liquidation, and rotate assets across emerging yield sources, which requires deep expertise. Meanwhile, tokenized RWAs like Treasury bills generate stable but "static" on-chain yields that are hard to further utilize. CIAN addresses these issues through one-click strategy automation (position and risk management), dynamic yield-source redistribution, and a no-KYC, borderless design.
Development in the past half year (2026-03 to 2026-09): In June 2026, Bondify, CIAN's RWA liquidity protocol, officially launched, initially supporting migration of looping positions for Saturn sUSDat/AUSD on Morpho—converting hard-to-exit leveraged positions into transferable, pricable on-chain instruments, with YT (Yield Tokens) allowing early monetization of future yield/points exposure. Concurrently, CIAN partnered with Unified Labs to explore risk-controlled leveraged yield strategies for tokenized RWAs, pairing CIAN's automation layer with a dedicated RWA risk curation framework. The protocol has maintained a flawless security record with no exploits or liquidations for two years. No significant negative events were found in the past two years.
CIAN's key milestones include:
Defining the Yield Layer concept: CIAN introduced the 'Yield Layer' as a virtual layer that consolidates sustainable and nascent yield sources across the crypto ecosystem, redistributing them to various assets and networks for optimized returns. This framework established CIAN's core positioning in the DeFi automation space.
Maintaining a flawless security record: CIAN sustained a two-year track record with no exploits or liquidations, demonstrating the robustness of its automated risk management and position monitoring systems. This achievement solidified trust among institutional and retail users alike.
Over the past six months, CIAN has made significant strides in RWAfi. On May 22, 2026, CIAN announced Bondify, a new extension focused on yield, automation, and risk-aware DeFi strategies for RWAfi. Bondify enables yield-bearing RWAs to move through liquidity, looping, and yield markets rather than sitting idle onchain. On June 1, 2026, Bondify officially launched, supporting the migration of Saturn sUSDat/AUSD positions on Morpho. It allows users to sell future yield or points exposure via Yield Tokens (YTs), securing part of their value upfront while maintaining risk exposure. Bondify also offers standardized loop-position representation and secondary-market trading, providing flexible options for position transfer and exit. This launch enables users bullish on Saturn/STRC points to gain exposure with minimal capital outlay.
Additionally, CIAN partnered with Unified Labs to explore leveraged yield strategies for tokenized RWAs, pairing CIAN's automated strategy layer with Unified Labs' RWA risk curation. This collaboration aims to make amplified yield available on tokenized RWAs within a disciplined risk framework. On June 26, 2026, CIAN announced a delay to the MaticX/MATIC strategy wind-down due to Stader postponing the instant redemption flow, affecting withdrawals for the 6X and 3X recursive staking strategies. Looking ahead, CIAN's roadmap focuses on expanding Bondify's capabilities, deepening RWA integrations, and enhancing cross-protocol yield optimization.
