    Yield Yak is a community-driven project that auto-compounds its users rewards and in effect generates greater yields. DeFi protocols reward their users in the form of tokens. These can be compounded (invested back into the protocol) to earn higher returns. However, as an individual it's difficult to re-invest on a timely basis and even if one could do that, the cost of investing over and over again would attract significant gas fees. Yield Yak solves this problem by pooling its users assets, such that the cost of compounding is shared by a large number of people and hence frequent compounding can be undertake, to generate higher yields.
