New Learn & Earn Round by Radiant Capital

**Traditional vs. Active Protection** Radiant's Guardian Fund breaks from conventional safety mechanisms by keeping capital productive instead of idle. Unlike traditional safety funds that sit dormant until needed, Guardian Fund capital: - Earns yield continuously - Remains composable across DeFi protocols - Deploys automatically when protection is required **The gLP Advantage** By combining Guardian Fund with gLP (Guardian Liquidity Provider tokens), the system delivers dual functionality: capital protection with measurable returns. Risk parameters stay transparent, rewards are quantifiable, and participation remains open to the community. This approach transforms safety capital from a static reserve into an active, yield-generating asset that maintains its protective function.

Radiant's Guardian Fund introduces a risk-reward mechanism for liquidity providers through gLP tokens. **How it works:** - Users deposit ETH and receive gLP tokens representing their share of the protection fund - gLP tokens are yield-bearing and DeFi-composable **Earning potential:** - Protocol revenue - Staking rewards - DAO-managed growth strategies **Risk factor:** Capital can be slashed if funds are needed for remediation payouts to affected users. The system creates a transparent risk marketplace where providers earn yield in exchange for backing protocol security.

Radiant introduces automated remediation through its Guardian Fund, offering protection for eligible users against covered exploits. **Key Features:** - Automatic compensation distributed to users with locked dLP tokens - Payouts proportional to individual losses - Coverage capped at 100% of net deposit loss **Eligibility Requirements:** - Lock 15% of deposit value as dLP (dynamic liquidity provider tokens) - Example: $1,000 deposit requires $150 in locked dLP for Guardian protection The system activates automatically when a covered exploit occurs, streamlining the compensation process for affected users.
