The problem n0ir solves

Liquidity provision is one of the most important functions in DeFi — it powers trading, yield, and the flow of capital across protocols. Yet today, it’s too complex for most users:

• You need to select pools and manage price ranges.
• You need to constantly rebalance to stay in range.
• You need to monitor risk and volatility.
• You need ETH to pay for gas, even if your portfolio is all in stablecoins.
• You need to handle multiple reward tokens that fluctuate in value.

For everyday users, this makes LPing confusing, capital-inefficient, and risky.

n0ir solves this by acting as an AI companion for liquidity provision.

• AI automation handles position sizing, rebalancing, and risk controls with institutional-grade precision.
• Base Paymaster makes all transactions gasless, so users never worry about ETH.
• CDP server wallets ensure a fully non-custodial setup where users always own their funds.
• Miniapp-first design makes onboarding as simple as joining a group chat on Farcaster or Coinbase Wallet.
• Aerodrome integration anchors execution in Base’s native liquidity hub, with rewards automatically converted back to USDC for simplicity.

The result: anyone can provide liquidity like a professional, with a single USDC deposit — no complexity, no gas, no risk of losing custody.

Challenges I ran into

Building n0ir meant integrating multiple layers of the Base stack into a seamless user experience, which brought real challenges:

1. Gasless Transactions with Paymaster
   • Challenge: Sponsoring gas across different transaction flows (deposit, rebalance, withdrawal) required careful design to prevent failures or unexpected costs.
   • Solution: We integrated Base Paymaster directly into the CDP wallet system, ensuring every user interaction — from first deposit to final withdrawal — remains gasless.
2. CDP Server Wallets for Non-Custodial Access
   • Challenge: Managing agent-controlled wallets while guaranteeing true non-custody was complex.
   • Solution: We implemented Base’s CDP server wallet infrastructure so each user gets their own secure wallet. n0ir executes strategies, but the user retains full ownership at all times.
3. AI + Aerodrome Reward Handling
   • Challenge: Aerodrome rewards are distributed in AERO, but we wanted users to only see stable USDC.
   • Solution: We built an automated flow where the agent harvests rewards, converts them back into USDC, and credits the user — while taking only 2% of AERO rewards to cover Paymaster costs, infrastructure, and development.

By leveraging Base-native technologies (Paymaster, CDP Wallets, Miniapps), we turned what could have been a fragmented, risky process into a smooth, secure, and gasless one.
