What is Fija Finance?

Fija is a VC-backed fintech from Germany that delivers compliant, easy, and transparent access to real DeFi (Decentralised Finance) yield strategies. Founded by experienced crypto investors, fintech entrepreneurs, and blockchain engineers, Fija’s mission is to make DeFi yield generation accessible, secure, and automated — for anyone. With the listing of fjUSDT on BitMEX, users can now directly access the USDT Yield Master Strategy, through a simple token conversion.

To learn more about Fija Finance, read their official documentation here. 

How does Fija Finance work?

Each Fija Finance strategy operates in three key layers:

1. The Vault: Crypto used to purchase Fija Tokens are automatically deposited into Fija’s smart contract vault that executes Fija’s DeFi strategy. This vault is ERC-4626 compliant, acting as a digital safety deposit box. In return, you get a Fija token (e.g. fjUSDT) as your proof of ownership.
2. The Strategy: Fija’s strategies are designed by professional DeFi experts and hedge fund managers. They are fully automated, backtested, and audited to ensure they operate with institutional-grade logic and safety features. The value of your Fija token automatically reflects the performance of the underlying strategy. You do not need to manually claim or compound your earnings. As with any investment, the token value can fluctuate and fall as it is tied to the performance of the underlying asset. 
3. Risk Management: Positions are monitored 24/7 to balance funds and prevent liquidation. Additionally, each strategy is assessed with Fija’s safety score which analyses the protocols, assets and blockchain’s potential risks.

What is Fija-USDT (fjUSDT)?

Fija-USDT (fjUSDT) is a token linked to the Fija USDT Yield strategy, which is a delta-neutral strategy launched on the Ethereum Mainnet.

The Simple Explanation:

This strategy works by using your USDT to facilitate trading of stablecoins on decentralised platforms. For this service, it earns two types of rewards: trading fees and bonus tokens. All rewards are automatically sold and reinvested into your stablecoin position. 

The DeFi Explanation: 

The strategy deploys USDT into two liquidity positions on the Curve decentralised exchange: the crvUSD – USDT pool and the crvUSD – USDC pool. The strategy earns a share of trading fees plus native CRV tokens. To maximise yield, the resulting LP tokens are then staked on Convex to earn additional CVX rewards. All generated returns are automatically reinvested into the initial stablecoin position for compounding.

The strategy includes a 90-day rebalancing mechanism to optimise returns and an automated safety mechanism that triggers an exit if any used stablecoins (USDT, USDC, or crvUSD) loses its peg by more than 2%, or if the pool exposure exceeds 15% of the total pool’s Total Value Locked (TVL).
