Alchemix is a self-repaying DeFi lending protocol that allows users to borrow against yield-bearing collateral without manual repayments. Alchemix's Twitter Score is 207 out of 1000 (an Excellent rating) as of July 2026, ranking #2,472 (top 1%) among 389,587 tracked accounts.
Alchemix was founded by Scoopy Trooples, a pseudonymous developer who has served as project lead since the protocol launched. The protocol is governed as a DAO, with ALCX governance-token holders able to vote on project decisions. Alchemix raised a disclosed round of $4.9 million in March 2021, led by CMS Holdings and Alameda Research, and later reported raising over $8 million in total investment capital from those firms alongside Spartan Ventures, Genesis Block Ventures, and others including eGirl Capital, Nascent, and Fisher8 Capital.
Alchemix operates on Ethereum and is also deployed on Optimism and Arbitrum, with integrations across Curve, Convex, Velodrome, and Yearn Finance. The protocol offers self-repaying loans up to 90% LTV, a Transmuter for fixed yield, and a modular yield tool. In June 2021, a debt-calculation bug allowed users to withdraw ETH collateral under incorrect conditions; the protocol published an incident report and stated that user funds were safe after patching. In 2023, a Curve alETH-ETH pool exploit affected the Alchemix ecosystem, though stolen funds were ultimately returned by the actor following a bounty process. Alchemix has published 2,745 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 524 accounts a total of 1,553 times.
