Deposit into Vaults
When you deposit SOL or an LST (like mSOL or JitoSOL) into a vault, you’re entering a synthetic leverage pool. Each vault represents a distinct leverage configuration, risk profile, and underlying strategy. The deposit process is straightforward on the surface, but under the hood, it triggers a series of automated operations:
Your deposit is converted (if necessary) into the vault’s base collateral format.
The vault records your deposit, mints Vault Share Tokens, and updates your wallet balance.
The protocol’s Rebalance Engine recalculates the vault’s current delta exposure to ensure it stays aligned with the leverage ratio (e.g., 2×, 3×).
Your deposited collateral is staked or yield-optimized while simultaneously backing the vault’s synthetic exposure.
What this means is — your funds aren’t just sitting idle. They’re earning staking yield, providing market exposure, and contributing to protocol liquidity all at once. The moment you deposit, you begin participating in both performance gains and system rewards.
Withdrawals reverse this process seamlessly — your synthetic exposure is unwound, your Vault Shares are burned, and you receive your SOL or LST back, including your share of profits or losses.
