DeFAI platform Giza made two major launches last week:Monday brought Swarms, an incentive verification layer. Wednesday introduced Pulse, an autonomous agent with Pendle Finance, that sold out its $3M cap in just three hours.5 mins to learn all you need to know 👇~~ Analysis by @davewardonline ~~How Giza Works@gizatechxyz is a decentralized network deploying autonomous agents to generate high yields. It shifts passive deposits to Active Capital, with AI agents actively seeking the best returns.Giza's flagship agent, ARMA, delivers 15% on USDC, surpassing standard DeFi yields. With $20M in Assets Under Agents and a 20% reload rate, users are reinvesting earnings, signaling satisfaction.The network operates through three core layers:➢ Semantic Layer — Translates DeFi protocol operations into agent-readable data for evaluating opportunities.➢ Smart Authorization Layer — Serves as the self-custodial hub for deposits, interactions, and token authorization.➢ Decentralized Execution Layer — Executes user instructions, enabling agents to implement strategies onchain.A new Swarms layer validates advertised yields through real-time testing, ensuring agents deliver verified results.The $GIZA token captures value via protocol fees, funding token buybacks, liquidity growth, and treasury development. The network is open to developers, allowing anyone to launch an agent.Enter Pulse: Fixed Yields SimplifiedPulse, launched Wednesday with @pendle_fi, targets Principal Token (PT) portfolios, offering fixed-yield positions. Pendle splits assets into PT (guaranteeing principal at maturity) and Yield Tokens (capturing yield). Pulse simplifies this by managing expiries, rebalancing, and optimizing allocations.Pulse launched with ETH-PT markets on Arbitrum at 13% APR, filling its $3M cap in three hours. Giza expanded partnerships to include assets like PT-rsETH via @KelpDAO, with plans for more chains and higher capacity.Pulse addresses DeFi friction points like user churn and complexity, potentially simplifying other protocols and expanding DeFi adoption.Swarms: Ensuring Honest YieldsSwarms, launched last Monday, tackles unverified DeFi yield claims. It introduces standardized APR (sAPR) through agent testing, ensuring accurate yield metrics. Protocols post incentive offers, agents test performance, and sAPR reflects verified results (e.g., 8% base yield plus 5% bonus equals 13% sAPR).This benefits protocols with measurable capital inflows, users with competitive yields, and efficient capital allocation. Swarms also creates a revenue stream, as protocols pay to access Giza’s agents, with fees supporting $GIZA holders via buybacks and treasury growth.Swarms acts as DeFi’s quality control, prioritizing verified performance over promises.OutlookGiza’s vision is a portfolio of intelligent agents optimizing specific domains. Pulse and Swarms offer better yields with less effort, signaling DeFi’s potential when AI agents streamline operations. Pulse’s rapid sellout shows user enthusiasm, and as Giza expands capacity, DeFAI grows, leveraging @ethereum's autonomous capital arena.
