Aegis Finance: An Overview
Aegis Finance (@aegis_im) is a DeFi protocol offering YUSD, a Bitcoin-backed stablecoin that generates yield through delta-neutral funding rate arbitrage in spot and perpetual markets. It maintains a 1:1 USD peg with real-time transparency via on-chain dashboards for reserves, positions, and APY. Users can mint YUSD by depositing USDT, USDC, or DAI, stake it for sYUSD (auto-compounding yield), and access utilities like lending, liquidity provision, and fixed-yield vaults. The native $AEG token enables governance via a DAO and has no team allocation. As of December 5, 2025, the points program (tied to $AEG airdrop) is in Season 2, the final phase before TGE (no exact date announced). Cumulative trading volume exceeds $29 billion, with open interest near $80 million.

Qualifying for the Aegis Finance Airdrop
The $AEG airdrop rewards ecosystem engagement through the Aegis Points Program, allocating points based on on-chain activity. Points from Seasons 1 and 2 determine allocations, with no minimum threshold but higher activity yielding more. Weekly $AEG distributions occur (visible in dashboard), and points now unify across activities for flexibility in rewarding integrations and growth. Season 2 (live since November 17, 2025) expands to include Aegis DEX trading and a new product (details pending). Base points were reduced 15x on November 21, 2025, for simplicity, but multipliers and relative advantages remain unchanged.
Key Earning Activities and Points (Base Rates as of November 21, 2025)
Activity | Base Points/Day | Multiplier Examples | Notes |
Hold YUSD | 1 per YUSD | 1x (base) | Simple holding; claim weekly yield. |
Hold sYUSD | 1 per sYUSD | 1x (base) | Auto-compounds yield; instant unstaking available (fee applies). |
Hold YT-sYUSD (Pendle) | 5 per YT | 5x | Highest efficiency for points. |
Pendle LP (sYUSD portion) | 5 per SY | 5x | Earns fees + incentives. |
Lend YUSD/sYUSD (money markets) | Varies by amount | 3x | E.g., on integrated platforms. |
Provide YUSD liquidity | Varies by amount | 10x | E.g., sYUSD/USDC on SushiSwap (Katana): +KAT incentives, 5x multiplier. |
Rho X Fixed Yield Vaults | 75 per YUSD | 5x | Lock YUSD (e.g., Dec 22 term) for fixed APY + 50 Rho points/100 YUSD. |
Aegis DEX Trading | Upcoming | TBD | Rewards for perps with YUSD collateral. |
Referrals: Earn 10% of invitees' points. Use https://app.aegis.im/earn?af=b5nksjmsyf for early bird access to the dashboard, which tracks points, multipliers, and leaderboards.
Exclusions: Points focus on engaged users; sybil-like behavior may be penalized. No staking required for base yields.
Steps to Qualify and Maximize Points
Join via Referral: Visit https://app.aegis.im/earn?af=b5nksjmsyf, connect EVM wallet (e.g., Arbitrum), and mint YUSD (deposit stables; ~$10–50 gas).
Stake and Engage: Convert to sYUSD in the Earn tab; pursue high-multiplier activities like YT on Pendle or Rho vaults.
Track Progress: Dashboard shows unified points, weekly claims, and Pulse-specific leaderboard (for InfoFi bonuses).
Sustain Activity: Weekly snapshots; aim for consistent exposure as Season 2 ends pre-TGE.
Claim: Post-TGE, points convert to $AEG (vesting TBD); retroactive for Season 1.
Risks include smart contract vulnerabilities and yield variability (current APY ~5–10%, market-dependent).
Pendle Strategies for Aegis
Aegis integrates sYUSD with Pendle for yield tokenization, splitting into PT (principal, fixed yield) and YT (yield-only, leveraged exposure). This enables advanced strategies without directional BTC risk. Launched June 2025, it boosts points (5x for YT/LP).
Core Strategies
Fixed Yield Lock (PT-sYUSD): Swap sYUSD for PT to secure current APY (e.g., 8% fixed to maturity) at a discount. Redeem at end for principal + yield. Ideal for predictability; earns base points.
Leveraged Yield (YT-sYUSD): Buy YT for pure yield exposure (no principal lock). Amplifies returns if rates rise; highest points efficiency (5/day per YT). Guide: Hold via Pendle app post-sYUSD stake.
Liquidity Provision: Add sYUSD to Pendle pools for fees, PENDLE emissions, and 5 points/day on SY share (5x multiplier). Combines with SushiSwap for layered incentives.
Looping example (via TermMax, live November 7, 2025): Stake YUSD → Swap to PT-sYUSD (Dec 18 maturity) → Collateralize on TermMax → Borrow USDC → Repeat for leveraged fixed yield (predictable borrow cost).
Access via Aegis dashboard → Pendle link; start with $100+ to cover fees.
InfoFi Campaigns
Aegis runs one confirmed InfoFi campaign on Alpha Pulse (via PulseInfra and Alphabot), launched ~October 2025. No other campaigns (e.g., on Cookie or XEET) are active.
