Auto-Investment

Turning Idle Assets Into Growth

Overview

The Auto-Investment feature extends the power of NFT Checks by allowing locked assets to be deployed into vetted DeFi protocols, generating yield automatically. Instead of sitting idle, funds within Checks can be activated across yield strategies while maintaining the programmability, transparency, and security of the underlying contract. This transforms Checks from static agreements into productive instruments that work continuously on behalf of their holders.

How It Works

When minting an NFT Check, users can enable Auto-Investment with a simple toggle. Locked assets are then routed into approved DeFi protocols such as Aave, Compound, or specialized yield aggregators.

  • Strategy Selection: Choose from risk-adjusted yield options based on asset type and preference.

  • Automated Deployment: Assets are deployed into the selected protocol without additional steps.

  • Auto-Compounding: Rewards are harvested, converted, and reinvested periodically.

  • Optimized Returns: Allocations can shift between protocols to maximize efficiency.

By embedding these mechanics directly into NFT Checks, Auto-Investment ensures that value creation is seamless, transparent, and always tied to verifiable on-chain logic. It transforms locked assets from passive holdings into actively managed positions.

Role of Yield Checks

Purpose-built for Auto-Investment, Yield Checks extend the role of NFT Checks into yield farming. They serve as positions that generate yield continuously while remaining transferable and composable across DeFi. Other Check types, including Payment, Vesting, and Escrow Checks, can also be Auto-Investment enabled during the minting process, broadening flexibility across use cases. In future iterations, portfolio management may allow users to activate or adjust Auto-Investment at the collection level, offering participants even greater control.

Key Features

Auto-Investment is designed to make sophisticated DeFi strategies accessible through a simple, intuitive framework. By embedding yield generation directly into NFT Checks, the feature removes technical barriers while keeping security and programmability intact. Users can unlock advanced automation without needing to manage wallets, approvals, or strategy migrations themselves.

  • Automated Execution: On-chain automation removes the need for manual management.

  • Yield Optimization: Assets dynamically move to the most efficient strategies available.

  • Flexible Asset Support: Starting with ETH, POL, and BNB, expanding as liquidity and stability allow.

These features position Auto-Investment as a core driver of productivity, ensuring that locked assets are fully utilized and continuously generating value.

Economic Model

The Auto-Investment framework is designed to create alignment between individual users and the broader ecosystem. Rewards generated by deployed assets are not only returned to the user but also shared with the community, ensuring value circulates throughout the platform.

  • A portion of yields are shared with Staking Check holders.

  • The majority compounds directly into the user’s position.

This dual flow ensures that Auto-Investment benefits both the individual and the collective, strengthening incentives on every level.

Benefits

The Auto-Investment feature transforms passive locked assets into active participants within DeFi. By enabling strategies that were once complex to access, it brings real efficiency and transparency to programmable finance.

  • Make locked assets productive by default.

  • Maximize returns with compounding mechanisms.

  • Diversify exposure across established DeFi protocols.

  • Maintain programmability and verifiability through NFT Checks.

The result is a system where capital works harder for users and the ecosystem, delivering lasting utility beyond simple storage of funds.
