DeFi R&D Lab

Dera Labs

Building a universal yield layer that works for your assets, not the other way around.

The Dera Engine converts static assets into yield-generating versions automatically, no lockups, no user action. It works for stablecoins, tokenized equities, RWAs, ETFs, and cryptocurrencies alike. Token value grows as TVL increases. Just hold.

Our Mission

Making Every Asset
Work Harder

We believe idle capital is a solved problem. Dera Labs exists to build the infrastructure that turns any digital asset into a yield-generating instrument, transparently, autonomously, and without compromise on liquidity or security.

Our team is a small, focused group of researchers, engineers, and protocol architects obsessed with pushing the boundaries of decentralized finance. We ship fast, think long-term, and put the protocol first.
