How two hackathon winners are building the strategy layer that's transforming yield generation on Radix.
TL;DR
- Lattic3 is the first unified strategy layer on Radix, making advanced DeFi yield strategies accessible through simple one-click interactions
- The Yield Multiplier strategy automates complex "looping" techniques using flash loans, allowing users to leverage returns on lending protocols like Weft and Root Finance
- Born from a hackathon pivot, the project evolved from a lending platform to a composable strategy aggregator that builds on top of existing Radix protocols
- A new strategy launches mid-July that promises to unlock entirely new yield opportunities across the ecosystem
DeFi promised to democratize sophisticated financial strategies, but the reality has been different. Complex yield optimization techniques remain locked behind technical barriers, requiring users to navigate multiple protocols, calculate risk ratios, and execute intricate multi-step processes that would challenge even experienced traders.
Lattic3 solves this accessibility problem by building the strategy layer that the ecosystem needed. Think of it as the bridge between DeFi protocols and everyday users who want to maximize their yields without needing a mathematics degree.
Beyond Simple Yield Farming
While most DeFi platforms focus on isolated features or single-asset opportunities, Lattic3 takes a fundamentally different approach. Rather than building another lending protocol or DEX, they're creating a composable layer that sits on top of existing Radix infrastructure, extending and optimizing what's already there.
Their flagship “Yield Multiplier” strategy exemplifies this philosophy. What was once a complex "looping" process requiring users to manually borrow, lend, and re-collateralize across multiple transactions now happens with a single click. Using flash loans and automated smart contract execution, Lattic3 transforms sophisticated yield strategies into smooth user experiences.
The result? Users can leverage their returns on established lending protocols like Weft and Root Finance without managing the underlying complexity. Its yield optimization made accessible.
The Strategy Layer Revolution
What makes Lattic3 particularly compelling is their vision of becoming the strategy layer for all of Radix. Instead of competing with existing protocols, they're enhancing them by bringing capabilities that don't exist natively.
Take leverage, for example. Lattic3 brings leverage to platforms that don’t natively support it, opening up new yield opportunities across the ecosystem.
"We believe that powerful yield-generating tools shouldn't require mathematical expertise," the team explains. "Lattic3 is here to close that gap."
From Hackathon to Mainnet Success
The story behind Lattic3 is as compelling as the technology itself. Founded by Kirill and Tymur, two developers who met during the EBC10 Radix hackathon in Barcelona.
Initially hesitant about building on an "unknown chain with an unfamiliar tech stack," the duo created 'Radish,' a lending platform that won second place at the hackathon. The developer experience on Radix impressed them immediately. “The developer experience on Radix turned out to be far better than what we had encountered with Ethereum or Solana.”
"The unique aspects of Radix allowed us to fully complete the project within the 36 hours," they recall. "Scrypto made so much sense for DeFi applications."
But here's where the story gets interesting. After securing a grant and rebuilding their lending platform from scratch, they made a crucial realization: the Radix lending market was becoming saturated. Rather than competing for liquidity in a crowded space, they pivoted to build something that could leverage existing liquidity across multiple protocols.
That pivot became Lattic3, and it's proven to be exactly what the Radix ecosystem needed.
What's Coming Next
While the Yield Multiplier continues to attract users seeking leveraged returns, the Lattic3 team isn't stopping there. A brand-new strategy is set to launch in mid-July, promising to unlock "a new type of yield opportunity on Radix."
The team is keeping details under wraps for now, but given their record of identifying gaps in the ecosystem and creating innovative solutions, this next release is one to look out for!
Beyond individual strategies, Lattic3 is focused on continuously refining the user experience. Feedback from their mainnet launch is driving improvements to make the platform "smoother, faster, and more intuitive" ensuring that advanced DeFi remains accessible to users at every level.
The Composable Future of DeFi
Lattic3 are demonstrating how composability – the ability to build on and extend existing infrastructure can create exponentially more value than isolated applications.
By aggregating protocols, optimizing strategies, and abstracting complexity, Lattic3 is showing what the next generation of DeFi looks like: sophisticated, user-friendly, and genuinely accessible to everyone.
As Kirill handles the sleek front-end experience and marketing, while Tymur develops the complex Scrypto logic that powers their strategies, the team embodies the collaborative spirit that's driving Radix's growth. Both full-time students who entered crypto through development, they represent the new generation of builders focused on solving real problems rather than chasing trends.
Why This Matters for Radix
Projects like Lattic3 are essential infrastructure for any thriving DeFi ecosystem. They multiply the utility of everything that already exists. When Lattic3 brings leverage to a lending protocol, they're not just helping users earn more yield; they're making that protocol more attractive to new liquidity providers and borrowers.
The technical capabilities of Radix, combined with support from the Radix Grants Program, have enabled Lattic3 to move from hackathon prototype to production-ready platform in record time. It's a testament to both the developer experience on Radix and the power of focused execution.
The Bigger Picture
As DeFi continues to evolve, the winners won't necessarily be the protocols with the most features but also the ones that make sophisticated finance genuinely accessible. Lattic3 is building exactly that: a future where anyone can access institutional-grade yield strategies without needing to become a DeFi expert.
Whether you're a yield farmer looking to optimize returns or a developer interested in composable DeFi architecture, Lattic3 represents a compelling vision of what's possible when great technology meets thoughtful design.
