# Goblin Finance

> The unified yield layer built to capture yield across networks.

Goblin Finance is a decentralized yield aggregation protocol operating across Aptos and Pharos. It automates liquidity management and offers tokenized real-world asset yield vaults for decentralized finance users.

Goblin Finance is a decentralized yield aggregation protocol that unifies automated liquidity management and real-world asset yield strategies into a single platform. It channels deposited capital into the highest-performing opportunities across concentrated liquidity exchanges, perpetual markets, and private credit vaults. The platform serves decentralized finance users on Aptos alongside participants seeking permissioned access to tokenized private credit on Pharos.

The protocol addresses fragmentation in yield markets, where opportunities are spread across concentrated liquidity exchanges, perpetual exchanges, and staking protocols without a single entry point. Goblin automates rebalancing, fee compounding, and position routing so deposited funds continuously move toward better performing strategies without manual intervention. Smart contracts underpinning the vaults have undergone independent security reviews.

Its flagship product, GoVault, provides automated liquidity management on Aptos through concentrated liquidity strategies, while a separate RWA vault line extends the model into tokenized private credit settled on Pharos. Additional delta neutral perpetual strategies are in development to broaden the yield menu further. The platform is used by depositors ranging from decentralized finance participants seeking automated on-chain yield to eligible parties accessing permissioned private credit opportunities.

## Products

- [GoVault](https://thegrid.id/profiles/goblin_finance): GoVault aggregates automated yield strategies across Aptos DeFi, including automated liquidity management on concentrated DEXs, delta-neutral positions on perpetual exchanges, and CeDeFi arbitrage with institutional partners. The platform dynamically rebalances positions, concentrates liquidity in high-volume ranges, and compounds fees to optimize returns while managing impermanent loss through volatility-aware adjustments. (Yield Aggregator, Live, Main Product)
- [GoAPT](https://thegrid.id/profiles/goblin_finance): GoAPT is a liquid staking token on Aptos that provides base network staking yield plus additional returns from GoVault strategy fees. Users stake APT to receive liquid goAPT tokens usable in DeFi while earning approximately 6.5% base yield enhanced up to 1.3 times through profit-sharing from automated vault strategies. (Liquid Staking, Live)
- [RWA Vault](https://thegrid.id/profiles/goblin_finance): RWA Vault is a real-world asset tokenization platform that brings off-chain private credit and other real-world income streams on-chain through vaults settled on Pharos. Users deposit funds that are allocated to vetted private credit positions, earning interest paid by real-world borrowers rather than returns tied to on-chain trading volume or token emissions. Access to the live private credit vault is permissioned, with capacity limits and disclosure-based terms shared with qualified participants. (Live)

## Assets

- [GoAPT (GOAPT)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/goblin_finance): GOAPT is a liquid staking token representing staked APT on Goblin Finance. It is used to earn base Aptos staking yield plus additional returns from GoVault strategy fees distributed to holders. The token's exchange rate automatically appreciates as profits from automated liquidity management and delta-neutral strategies flow back to stakers, creating a compounding yield mechanism that enhances returns beyond standard staking.
