Portfolio management is often overlooked or pushed to the sidelines in DeFi. At Silo, we knew right away that this page had to stand out. A product that offers a wide range of capital management options must have a single hub where users can manage their multiple positions and monitor them holistically. Data clarity in DeFi is also often neglected, and users frequently expect simple metrics such as “Total Earned,” “Total Deposited,” and “Avg. APY” to be available in one place without having to navigate through hundreds of pages and networks.

Risk is a key factor in yield-generating products. Every decentralized protocol involves some degree of risk, to varying degrees. That’s exactly what we’ve focused on at Silo—creating a visual scale that helps users navigate and understand their risk level. Different types of products, different factors, different risks.

Offering yield-related products is one thing, but how they’re presented is another. Different categories, the number of products, statistics, risk, APY — all of this is data that we need to break down into its basic components from the start. We begin by determining what we’re able to display, and work our way toward concluding what will be of interest to the user. At Silo, we’ve implemented several different strategies, such as visually highlighting the most popular configurations, emphasizing key data within them, and enabling users to flexibly search for opportunities that interest them across all available markets.
