Hey r/BASE 👋

I'm Kyle, building City Protocol.

City Protocol is the neofinance infrastructure layer for Base — we give founders and developers everything they need to launch, operate, and distribute tokenized investment strategies and reward campaigns, all from one modular SDK.

Before City Protocol, if a project wanted to offer its users vaults, yield, swaps, on/off ramps, payments, or even just basic KYC — they'd have to stitch together a dozen different integrations, each with its own contracts, docs, and edge cases. That's expensive, slow, and risky. We've lived that pain ourselves and decided to fix it.

City Protocol is built on two layers:

Attention Layer — Our product Viral City lets founders measure real mindshare contribution from their community and distribute rewards based on actual UGC impact, not just follower counts. Every user gets a City ID, a reputation and identity layer that ranks contribution quality and guards against Sybil attacks. Think of it as an engineered virality engine where capital meets content.

Capital Layer — Our Neofinance-as-a-Service stack lets any project plug in institutional-grade vault infrastructure, yield strategies, swaps, lending/borrowing, fiat on/off ramps, payments, and KYC/AML — all through a single SDK. Non-custodial, chain-abstracted, and audited.

We integrate with mature partners across every vertical: Interlace, LiFi, Aerodrome, PancakeSwap, DAV, etc, and many more. Founders connect once to City Protocol and get access to the full ecosystem.

Our vault architecture mirrors how traditional asset management works — request, valuation, settlement, claim — but fully on-chain with role-separated permissions (curator, valuation provider, admin, whitelist manager).

Ask me anything about:

• me and my team, things in Asia
• our upcoming roadmap
• why we tackle Neofinance and how we look at this vertical
• City ID and Viral City
• Building neofinance infrastructure on Base
• where we think stablecoin and next generation spending behavior will look like

Looking forward to the conversation!

Kyle, City Protocol
