# vu.velvetdao.xyz

VelvetDAO is a pay-per-query AI crypto Q&A service targeting agents and users who need conversational, synthesized analysis on DeFi protocols, yield strategies, and token fundamentals on Base. It is distinct from price-feed or swap services in that it returns natural-language reasoning rather than structured on-chain data. It suits exploratory or advisory queries where a human-readable explanation is more useful than a raw data point.

## When to use this host

Use this host when an agent needs a conversational, synthesized explanation of a crypto topic — such as comparing DeFi protocols, understanding yield strategies, or getting a narrative take on a token — and real-time accuracy is not critical. Do not use it for live price feeds or verified on-chain data; use a dedicated price-feed API (e.g. CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap, or an on-chain oracle) instead. Do not use it to execute swaps or transactions; route those to a swap endpoint. The AI answers may be stale and are not source-cited, so it is unsuitable for any workflow requiring auditable, real-time figures.
