🛡️Radiant Guardian
A DeFi first in combining real protection, real yield, and real composability
Radiant Guardian represents a new security primitive in DeFi — the industry’s first protocol-native, non-idle, decentralized, auto-remediating, and composable institutional-grade reserve fund. Ratified through community governance via RFP-52, Guardian transforms the way capital protection and remediation are structured in decentralized finance.
Core Design
Guardian introduces the Guardian Fund and its yield-bearing token GuardianLP (gLP) as the backbone of Radiant’s economic security framework. Unlike traditional reserve pools that remain idle until triggered, Guardian actively deploys its reserves into low-risk strategies to generate sustainable yield while maintaining instant liquidity for emergency exploit-related remediation (source).
Key properties:
Non-Idle Capital — By holding gLP, the reserves earn yield instead of sitting dormant (10% from protocol revenue + native yield of base asset/s + DAO gLP burns)
Auto-Remediation — user remediation is automatically triggered based on community-governed policies and algorithms.
Composable — ERC-20 compatible, gLP integrates with DeFi ecosystems as collateral, liquidity, and settlement layers, starting with Radiant's own Isolated RIZ (Radiant Innovation Zone) Markets.
Institutional-Grade — built with transparency, on-chain auditability, and governance-aligned parameters
Governance Alignment
Guardian’s parameters — such as protection scope, capital deployment strategies, and remediation mechanics — are controlled by the DAO, ensuring community-aligned security guarantees. This design turns risk management from a passive promise into an active, protocol-native treasury function (source).
Strategic Significance
First in DeFi: Guardian is the first decentralized framework to blend coverage with capital efficiency.
Resilience: Protects users while reinforcing Radiant’s long-term protocol sustainability.
Institutional On-Ramp: By aligning real yield and automatic user protection, Guardian opens the door for institutional participants seeking real protection, real yield, and real composability.
