Financial tokenization platform Midas has unveiled two new decentralised finance (DeFi) products “mMEV and mRe7YIELD” on Etherlink, a high-performance, Ethereum-compatible layer-2 network built on the Tezos blockchain. These new offerings aim to bring institutional-grade, market-neutral investment strategies into the world of decentralised finance.
The launch continues Midas’ expansion into DeFi, following its earlier products, mBASIS and mTBILL, which have attracted $11 million in total value locked (TVL) on Etherlink. Like their predecessors, the new products allow for permissionless, self-custodied exposure through ERC-20 tokens, ensuring ease of access without compromising on compliance and oversight.
Introducing mMEV and mRe7YIELD
The new products are backed by established asset managers:
mMEV is managed by MEV Capital and focuses on arbitrage and market-neutral opportunities across blockchain ecosystems.
mRe7YIELD, overseen by Re7 Capital, delivers exposure to a range of diversified DeFi yield strategies.
These strategies are tokenized into ERC-20 certificates that represent real-time positions in complex DeFi operations, all without requiring multiple intermediaries, counterparties, or regulatory bottlenecks. Investors simply execute a single on-chain transaction to gain access.
This model enables streamlined, secure, and compliant DeFi investing, ideal for institutions seeking to enter the crypto yield landscape without the complexities typically associated with traditional finance or fragmented DeFi ecosystems.
Etherlink: A Scalable Layer-2 Foundation
Midas has chosen Etherlink for its superior performance and composability. Developed using Tezos technology, Etherlink supports faster confirmation times, near-zero fees, and instant withdrawals, making it highly suitable for scalable financial applications.
David Relkin, Head of DeFi at Nomadic Labs (the Tezos developer group behind Etherlink), highlighted the transformative potential of Etherlink for institutional DeFi.
“Products like mMEV and mRe7YIELD finally make advanced yield-farming strategies accessible to institutional investors. We view them as one important step toward bringing wholesale finance fully on-chain.”
Etherlink’s infrastructure allows these investment strategies to interact directly with lending protocols, automated market makers, and structured vaults, significantly reducing operational overhead.
Compliance Meets Innovation in On-Chain Finance
Midas’ offerings reflect a growing trend in DeFi, combining the transparency and efficiency of blockchain with the safeguards and oversight required by institutional players. These tokenized products offer market-neutral strategies, meaning they aim to generate yield regardless of market direction, appealing to risk-averse or regulated entities.
Dennis Dinkelmeyer, CEO of Midas, emphasised Etherlink’s role in enabling this innovation:
“Etherlink offers the scalability and composability needed to bring structured, compliant strategies fully on-chain. With mMEV and mRe7YIELD, we’re expanding secure, self-custodied exposure to institutional-grade products.”
By reducing dependency on centralised custodians and enabling direct smart contract interaction, Midas is positioning itself at the forefront of next-generation DeFi infrastructure.
A New Era of Tokenised Investment Products
With mMEV and mRe7YIELD, Midas is pushing the boundaries of how institutional capital can access the benefits of decentralised finance. These products signal a clear shift towards modular, compliant, and scalable DeFi strategies that bridge the gap between traditional financial systems and blockchain-based alternatives.
