Why Lazy Summer is Base’s easiest ETH yield play

Ethereum on Base is booming — and yield hunters are flooding in. But with every new opportunity comes noise, risk, and complexity. Lazy Summer changes that.

It’s the ETH yield strategy for people who don’t want to think too hard. Built by Summer.fi, powered by automation, and now live on Base.

Let’s break down why it’s the easiest way to earn on your ETH today.

Simplicity That’s Actually Smart

Lazy Summer’s ETH vault on Base isn’t “lazy” in design — just in effort required. It abstracts away all the complexity of vault building and automated collateralization. Behind the scenes, it deploys ETH into a lower-risk yield loop built on Aave v3, then continuously fine-tunes the position using Summer.fi’s AI-powered automation layer.

You get:

  • A live APY of 3.42% (updated minute-by-minute)
  • +0.61% outperformance vs the median DeFi ETH yield
  • A true plug-and-play ETH vault requiring no manual upkeep

It’s like having your own yield strategist, minus the management fees.

💧 Deep Liquidity, Real Trust

As of now, 2,168+ ETH ($3.94M) is already deposited — a strong early signal that Base-native users trust this product. That number keeps climbing because Lazy Summer doesn't chase yield at the cost of risk.

This is not some wild APY game. This is sustainable ETH yield using blue-chip protocols, auto-managed by battle-tested infrastructure.

Lower-Risk ETH is powered by DeFi’s best, which have all chosen to take their protocols and markets to Base – a best-in-class chain.
