Example Automation Flow
Here's how a multi-step automation might work:
Initial Setup: You have 10,000 USDC and want to optimize yields while managing risk.
Step 1: Yield Optimization
Condition: APY for USDC on Platform A > 6%
Action: Lend 5,000 USDC on Platform A
Step 2: Risk Management
Condition: If total value of USDC lending position drops below $4,800
Action: Withdraw all USDC from Platform A
Step 3: Redeployment
Condition: 24 hours after withdrawal from Step 2
Action: Check APYs across platforms and lend on highest (if above 4%)
Step 4: Take Profits
Condition: If total earnings from lending reach $500
Action: Withdraw $500 worth of USDC to your wallet
This flow automatically manages your lending position, protects against significant value loss, seeks new opportunities, and secures profits - all without your constant attention.
Remember, these are just examples. DefiLens allows you to create custom automations tailored to your specific investment goals and risk tolerance. Always consider your personal financial situation and risk appetite when setting up automations.
