What is Blend?
What is Blend?
Blend is a non-custodial Yield Coordination Engine. It’s the infrastructure behind your neobank’s savings products. When you deposit, your money goes into your own personal Safe - not a shared pool.
Who controls my money?
Who controls my money?
You do. Your money is kept in a personal Safe that only you can sign for. Blend’s automation can only do things you’ve allowed, within the risk limits set by the strategy.
What does 'Separately Managed Account' mean?
What does 'Separately Managed Account' mean?
Most yield apps pool everyone’s money together in one big pot. Blend is different: every user gets their own separate Safe. Your money, your risk, and your strategies are all yours alone. Learn more in How Blend is Different.
What if markets get volatile?
What if markets get volatile?
The system monitors the market around the clock. If things start looking risky, it automatically pulls your money back to safety before there’s a real problem.
Am I exposed to market prices going up or down?
Am I exposed to market prices going up or down?
It depends on your account type’s strategy. “Delta-neutral” strategies aim to avoid price swings and just capture the spread. Other strategies (like Bitcoin+) are for users who want exposure to price movements.
Can I withdraw anytime?
Can I withdraw anytime?
Yes. No lockups, no waiting periods, no penalties. Your neobank handles the withdrawal flow, but your funds are always accessible through your Safe.
What if Blend or my neobank goes offline?
What if Blend or my neobank goes offline?
Your money stays in your Safe. You can always access it directly at safe.global or through any block explorer. No one can gatekeep your exit.

How safe is my money?
How safe is my money?
Your Safe is a real Gnosis Safe, the same technology used to secure billions in DeFi. You’re the only signer, so only you can move your money. And since each user has their own Safe, there’s no big shared pool that can be drained in one attack.
What if Blend gets hacked?
What if Blend gets hacked?
Your money stays in your Safe. An attacker can’t drain everyone at once because there’s no shared pool. Even if the automation layer were compromised, rate-limiting and slippage guards slow extraction to a crawl while detection systems respond. See Security.
Does anyone have a master key?
Does anyone have a master key?
No. There are no admin keys that can move your funds. Blend uses a permission system that can only do the specific actions the strategy requires.
How are strategies checked?
How are strategies checked?
Every strategy goes through security audits and is built on top of well-known, battle-tested protocols like Morpho, Aave, and Euler. Risk Architects and Blend’s team evaluate each one before it goes live.
