What are Baskets?

Baskets are Lomen’s core innovation — programmable, multi-asset containers that package together curated strategies, assets, and protocols into a single, manageable investment vehicle. Think of a basket as a transparent, customizable portfolio that executes complex DeFi strategies with just one click.

How Baskets Work

Baskets combine multiple assets and protocols into a unified strategy. Each basket is:
  • Transparent: You can see exactly what’s inside — which assets, which protocols, and how they work together
  • Programmable: Baskets execute multi-step strategies automatically, handling complex operations across different protocols
  • Self-custodial: Your assets stay in your wallet. You maintain full control and can exit anytime
  • Dynamic: Baskets can be rebalanced automatically or manually to maintain optimal allocations

What Goes Inside a Basket?

A basket can contain:

Multiple Assets

Baskets can hold various cryptocurrencies and tokens, allowing for diversified exposure across different asset classes.

Multiple Protocols

Strategies can span across different DeFi protocols — lending platforms, DEXs, staking protocols, and more — all coordinated seamlessly.

Complex Strategies

Multi-step strategies like yield farming, liquidity provision, lending, and staking can be combined into a single basket.

Automated Logic

Baskets execute strategies automatically, handling rebalancing, compounding, and optimization without manual intervention.

Basket Structure

Why Baskets Matter

Baskets solve the complexity problem in DeFi. Instead of:
  • Managing multiple wallets and platforms
  • Manually executing multi-step strategies
  • Tracking positions across different protocols
  • Constantly rebalancing allocations
You get:
  • One-click execution of complex strategies
  • Unified view of all your positions
  • Automated management of your investments
  • Full transparency into what’s happening
