Introduction to karpatkey
What do we do?
karpatkey provides on-chain financial solutions for leading DAOs. We help crypto organizations grow their assets responsibly and sustainably, offering services that include active treasury management, financial services, ecosystem growth, and risk management solutions.
Founded in 2020, karpatkey initially focused on managing the Gnosis DAO treasury with a primary goal of asset management and growth. As we evolved, our mission expanded to help DAOs achieve long-term sustainability by aligning with the strategic goals and vision of our DAOs.
We are treasury managers rather than a hedge fund committed to the long-term success of DAOs. Our expertise and capability to support partners have grown through collaborations with various DAOs, leading to new emergent markets in financial services such as funding, debt, and mergers and acquisitions (M&A).
How we do it
We operate within a sophisticated infrastructure designed to facilitate non-custodial and trust-minimized asset management, empowering asset owners and managers through a range of advanced tools.
At the heart of our operations lies the use of on-chain permissions policies that govern interactions with DeFi protocols, allowing asset managers to execute transactions through a Manager Wallet on behalf of a Portfolio Wallet.
Our Tooling
Building blocks
Our technology stack includes the Safe Smart Account, the leading account abstraction solution that provides a secure solution for managing assets, alongside the Roles Modifier that enforces access controls. Our DeFi Kit enables the creation of tailored permissions for safe interactions with DeFi protocols. Additionally, we count on an SDK that facilitates compliant transaction creation, while the DeFi Repertoire offers a library of pre-defined financial strategies.
Execution
We enhance operational efficiency through our execution tooling which integrates manual and automated processes. The Execution app serves as a user-friendly interface for asset managers to manually execute strategies, while the Automated Operations act as automated bots that execute pre-defined strategies responding to specific triggers.
Risk
Our Risk Product enables asset managers to set up monitors for each position and receive alerts from various providers. This capability enhances the overall risk management framework by enabling timely responses to market changes. Our execution capabilities, automated response mechanisms, and alert systems build our state-of-the-art risk management framework.
