BTB Financevfat alternative
Why give vfat a percentage of your position on every rebalance? BTB auto-rebalances for a flat fee.
vfat is a multi-chain yield app whose Sickle smart wallet automates concentrated liquidity: rebalance, harvest, compound and exit. BTB Finance rebalances, compounds and keeps your LP staked from your own wallet for a flat $0.10 per rebalance on Base and $0.50 on Robinhood Chain, whatever the position size, and never takes a share of what it earns.

What it costs on a real position
Take a $10,000 position on Base in a 0.05% pool, earning $3,000 a year in fees (30%), rebalanced 100 times and compounded weekly.
| A year of automation | How it adds up | |
|---|---|---|
| vfat | about $404 | 100 rebalances at 0.01% of $10,000 ($1 each), 1.8% of $3,000 in compounded fees, and the 0.05% pool fee on about $5,000 swapped each rebalance ($2.50 each); slippage and price impact extra |
| BTB Finance | about $15.46 | 100 rebalances and 52 compounds at $0.10 each, plus hourly checks at 1 BTB each (about $0.26 a year); rebalances swap nothing |
Percentage fees grow with the position; BTB's stays the same. At $100,000 the vfat figure is about ten times larger, BTB's is unchanged. BTB rebalances without swapping, so there is no swap fee, slippage or MEV to add on its side.
Other free alternatives to vfat, and what each leaves out
You will meet these in the same search. They are good tools; here is where each stops, so you can pick the right one.
| Tool | Good for | Where it stops |
|---|---|---|
| Revert Finance | Solid position analytics and backtests for Uniswap V3 and forks. | Automation (auto-range, auto-exit) takes 0.15% of the position or 2% of fees per run, and there is no pool discovery across DEX registries. |
| DefiLlama | The widest free yield table in DeFi. | APR is quoted for the whole pool, not a range, and you cannot simulate a range or add a position from it. |
| CoinGecko impermanent loss calculator | Quick two-token IL check. | No fees, no concentrated ranges, no real pool data. |
| Poolfish | Was the free Uniswap V3 calculator most people started with. | Acquired by Metrix Finance in August 2026; users are being moved to Metrix plans. |
| BTB Finance | Simulate any range on any supported DEX, then add and manage the position in place. | LP management covers Ethereum, Base, BNB and Robinhood Chain; other chains are simulate only. |
How BTB keeps automation cheap
Swaps routed through BTB carry a 1% fee, shown before you confirm. That is the revenue. Every week it is split across everyone who checked in, simulated, swapped or held a position through the app, in proportion to the points they earned, and paid out in BTB on Friday. Simulating, discovering pools and managing positions never cost anything; auto-rebalance charges only a flat fee that covers the agent's gas, never a share of your position or its earnings.
