Question 1

What USDE yields are available on Base?

Accepted Answer

StableLens indexes every USDE-denominated yield pool on Base that's listed via DefiLlama or our per-chain protocol adapters (Aave v3, Compound v3, Morpho, Sky/Spark, Pendle, etc.). The pool list above shows current APY, TVL, and StableLens risk grade. The /yields directory has the unfiltered view + filter chips for chain, protocol, risk grade, and APY threshold.

Question 2

Are higher APYs on Base riskier than on Ethereum?

Accepted Answer

APY-vs-risk relationships are pool-specific, not chain-specific. The chain-risk dimension contributes the same score to every pool on a given chain — Ethereum gets ~95, and Base carries its own base score. Pool-level APY differences come from protocol mechanics, emission schedules, and liquidity depth. Always compare risk-adjusted APY (APY ÷ σ₃₀ᴅ) rather than raw APY when evaluating across pools.

Question 3

What's the difference between native USDE and bridged USDE on Base?

Accepted Answer

Native USDE (issued directly on Base, e.g. via the issuer's official deployment) carries less risk than bridged USDE (locked on Ethereum, minted on Base via a bridge). Bridged-asset pools include the bridge in the risk surface; the StableLens risk model captures this in the Oracle/Bridge dimension.

Question 4

Can I deposit USDE on Base directly through StableLens?

Accepted Answer

No. StableLens is data-only — we never custody funds, never sign transactions, and never execute trades. The "Deposit" links on each pool route directly to the underlying protocol's app interface. You connect your own wallet there.

Question 5

Is StableLens recommending one Base USDE pool over others?

Accepted Answer

No. StableLens publishes risk grades and analysis but never recommends specific pools. The risk-adjusted APY column (APY ÷ σ₃₀ᴅ) is a useful single-number comparison; allocators should also weigh the per-dimension risk breakdown and their own diligence on protocol mechanics. Methodology is open-source at /methodology/v0.1.
