Plain-English summary of this vault — what it does, who runs it, where the yield comes from, and what could break it. Generated from the same deterministic inputs shown elsewhere on this page; the numbers are the source, this is just the explanation.
What this vault does
You deposit USDC and the vault lends it out to borrowers who post fixed-yield tokens and stablecoin derivatives as collateral—things like Pendle PT (fixed-yield tokens maturing in June 2026) and savUSD (a stablecoin wrapper). The interest rate you earn floats with borrowing demand; the vault is currently fully deployed with no idle cash.
Who runs it
AlphaPing runs this vault with a tight focus on stablecoin collateral across synthetic and derivative markets, keeping complexity and risk scores both in the lower third.
Where the yield comes from
The 6.78% APY comes from borrowing demand against five stablecoin-backed markets, with the heaviest concentration (52%) in PT-apxUSD, where utilization sits at 86%—meaning most of the lent capital is actively borrowed.
What could break it
The main risk is concentration: over half the vault's USDC backs a single fixed-yield token (PT-apxUSD-18JUN2026) that matures in mid-2026, and four of the five markets are running at or near full utilization (86–93%), leaving little room for rate absorption if demand drops. All collateral is stablecoin-based, but that stablecoin risk (depeg) shows a healthy signal.
Who this is for
Good fit for an allocator seeking steady 6–7% yield on USDC with below-average DeFi complexity if you're comfortable with June 2026 maturity concentration and tight utilization margins.
USDC is trading within normal range. Both market spot and Chainlink agree this vault's loan asset is on peg — no peg risk affecting NAV right now.

Liquidationweight 20%
Headroom (1 − LLTV) measured in σ-units of 30d realized vol, amplified by utilization.
Yield anomalyweight 20%
Peer-cohort z-score plus absolute-yield band. Excess yield is risk you may not yet model.

Liquidityweight 10%
Util curve position, share locked above 95%, idle buffer.
Maturityweight 10%
Vintage + TVL-time integral. V2 vaults carry an opacity surcharge.
Depeg floorfloor
Hard min from active depeg signal on the loan asset.
Composite = max(Σ weighted + floors). Warning and depeg floors are hard minimums; the weighted sum of the structural factors is the base. A floor highlighted in amber means it is what determines the final score — the protocol or peg signals are louder than our structural model.

What this vault actually does
Alpha USDC Core is a conservative mandate-driven on-chain credit vault denominated in USDC. It provides isolated exposure to short-duration over-collateralized strategies with explicit risk constraints transparent positions and deterministic exit paths designed for capital preservation auditability and controlled institutional access.
Where the yield comes from
Morpho V2 vault — wraps downstream Morpho markets and V1 vaults via adapters.
Why they may not
Some V2 adapters point at Morpho Blue markets directly; their underlying market detail isn't resolvable in the universe-level fetch, so this vault carries a V2 opacity surcharge in the risk model.

Reading this map. Direct exposures are the assets the vault holds or lends against. Indirect dependencies (Tab 3) include the protocols that mint those assets, the oracles pricing them, and the bridges that move them. An incident at any indirect dependency can damage the vault even when the direct collateral looks healthy.

V2 adapter routing failure
rare
computedV2 vaults route through adapters into downstream venues. A misbehaving adapter (paused, drained, or pointing at a compromised target) can lock or mismark a portion of the vault until governance acts.

computedVault has $12M idle buffer (100% of $12M TVL). $38M of the $50M request queues; the redeemer takes a ~0.50% forced-exit discount weighted across collateral mix plus 0-day TVM cost. $38M of the request exceeds the vault's $12M TVL and cannot be redeemed at all.
