Weiss Ratings DeFi yield service

Highlights

Weiss Ratings launches Crypto Yield Hunter, a DeFi yield farming portfolio led by Marija Matic targeting consistent annual yields of 30% to 50%.
The proprietary Sideways Siphon Strategy aims to protect against volatility and enable participation in higher-upside trades, such as a 150% DogWifHat trade in 49 days on a $2,693 investment.
Service marketing emphasizes active risk management, Matic's DeFi expertise, and alignment with clients by investing Dr. Martin Weiss' personal funds after members act.

Service positioning and strategy focus

As described by Weiss Ratings, Crypto Yield Hunter is a real-money portfolio service led by Marija Matic that aims to help investors earn interest and rewards on liquid crypto assets through DeFi tools. The company says the service uses several approaches, including its proprietary Sideways Siphon Strategy, to pursue yields across different market conditions while seeking to manage volatility risk.

Weiss Ratings presents yield farming, also called liquidity providing, as the core mechanism behind the strategy set. It says the Sideways Siphon is designed as a protection plan during volatile periods and is intended to support relatively consistent annual yields in the 30% to 50% range.

Return claims and market context

The marketing material also points to selective higher-upside trades beyond that range. It cites a 2024 DogWifHat trade in which members were shown a possible net return on investment of 150% in 49 days, with a $2,693 investment potentially rising to $4,055.

Weiss Ratings says that position carried elevated risk and that risk management was clearly communicated to members. The firm also emphasizes Matic's background in smaller emerging cryptocurrencies and DeFi strategies, adding that she invests Dr. Martin Weiss' own money in each recommendation after members have had the chance to act first.

Matic holds a business degree from The London School of Economics and Political Science and a master's degree in banking and financial management from the University of Business Studies of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Weiss Ratings also says she has spoken at crypto conferences and appeared on the BBC to discuss tokenization of real-world assets.

In our earlier article on the Philippine Social Security System (SSS) defending its equity portfolio performance, we covered how the fund emphasized long-term realized gains and recurring dividend income despite recent unrealized paper losses. SSS argued that mark-to-market declines are not cash losses unless holdings are sold below cost, and highlighted its focus on diversified, fundamentals-based investing and ongoing risk oversight to sustain stable income.
