Automated active liquidity management for Meteora DLMM pools to maximize yield and simplify rebalancing.
Anchor vault on Solana that auto-compounds, auto-rebalances, and auto-harvests Meteora DLMM liquidity positions via Jupiter swaps
Genuine DLMM vault that won a Cypherpunk honorable mention, but ships on 4 commits
Scored on the public repo. This project won its hackathon on a live demo the scan does not see.
Dimensions
Ktulu is a real Anchor vault wrapping Meteora DLMM CPI calls and Jupiter v6 swaps to auto-compound, auto-rebalance, and auto-harvest LP positions, backed by genuine litesvm integration tests and a documented, now-closed mainnet deployment. The project itself is a confirmed Cypherpunk DeFi Honorable Mention , the strongest possible winnerSimilarity signal, and its vault framing for yield farmers and LPs mirrors the cohort's dominant winner-DNA tags. The niche isn't empty: Asteora (0.058) and ShieldHedge (0.055) chase the same DLMM auto-liquidity mechanic, and 257 topical neighbors sit in the same corridor, so this reads as a partial gap rather than a clean opening; Ktulu's edge is shipping the actual on-chain vault program where most rivals are frontends or bots, and Arcana Markets shows judges do reward vault-style DeFi infrastructure. The glaring weakness is momentum: zero stars, one contributor, and only 4 commits across 174 files over roughly seven months , a footprint that reads as squashed rather than iterated. Next move: rebuild a real commit history and redeploy to mainnet to convert the honorable mention into sustained, visible traction.
