Roadmap

Phase 1: USDC Vault (Current)

Status: Active

The flagship vault establishing Dawn Vault's core infrastructure and track record.

  • Base Layer: Kamino Multiply (ONyc/USDC ~16%, USDG/PYUSD ~9.5%) + USDC Lending (Kamino, Jupiter, 3-8%)

  • Alpha Layer: SOL delta-neutral with dawnSOL enhancement (15-20% APY)

  • Target APY: 9-16%+

Milestones


Phase 2: Strata — Tranched Vault

Status: Planned

Split the USDC Vault into Senior and Junior tranches, enabling institutional investors to participate with defined risk/return profiles.

Senior Vault
Junior Vault

Return

8% fixed

Variable (residual upside)

Loss priority

Protected (last to absorb)

First-loss buffer

Withdrawal

Instant

7-day lock

Target

Institutions, stable-yield seekers

High-yield seekers

Underlying strategy remains the same as Phase 1. Risk separation is enforced via an on-chain Accounting Waterfall (Anchor program) built on Ranger Finance infrastructure.

"Stop losing sleep over hacks. Take the Senior tranche."


Phase 3: Japan Institutional Access

Status: Planned

Expand access to Japanese institutional investors and qualified investors (適格投資家) through regulatory alignment and JPY-native on-ramps.

  • Regulatory & audit compliance: Structured reporting and audit trails meeting Japanese financial regulations

  • JPY stablecoin integration: Enable vault participation via JPY stablecoins (e.g., JPYC, progmat coin) to remove FX friction for domestic investors

  • KYC/AML layer: Permissioned deposit flow for compliance with Japanese fund regulations

  • Localized reporting: Performance reports and risk disclosures in Japanese, aligned with domestic institutional requirements


Timelines are indicative and subject to change based on market conditions and development progress.
