Passive Yield Delivery
DeFi Strategies
Passive Yield Delivery refers to the automated distribution of rewards, staking returns, or farming income directly to users without requiring them to claim, harvest, or reinvest manually. These systems are designed to minimize friction, reduce gas fees, and improve accessibility—particularly for smaller holders or less active users. Passive delivery mechanisms may rely on protocol-level triggers, auto-compounding vaults, or scheduled batch executions that redistribute yield proportionally across all eligible participants.
Use Case: On the Kinesis platform, holding KAG or KAU enables true passive yield delivery. Users receive rewards without logging in, triggering transactions, or paying fees. Yield is credited automatically based on daily bullion holdings, creating a smooth and fully automated experience. This contrasts with networks like FLR, which are currently 95% manual in reward execution — but intentionally so. The FLR ecosystem thrives on community-driven interaction, and many users (including myself) enjoy manually claiming rewards, engaging with FTSO rankings, and contributing on social platforms. It attracts a more hands-on, geek-type user base, often active on X and in sync with the ecosystem’s leadership — much like the XRP crowd. In contrast, Kinesis operates on a different wavelength, prioritizing frictionless automation over social dynamics.
Key Concepts:
- Auto-Compounding — Converts earned rewards into principal without user interaction.
- Claim Scheduling — Ensures timely, low-cost delivery cycles.
- Gas Fee Optimization — Eliminates per-user claim transactions.
- Yield Batching Protocols — Uses shared execution to push yield to users efficiently.
Summary: Passive Yield Delivery makes earning in DeFi effortless and inclusive. By eliminating the need to manually claim or manage rewards, it enables broader participation, improves efficiency, and supports longer-term alignment with protocol design.
