General questions

chevron-rightWhat is a Lagoon vault?hashtag

A Lagoon vault is made of:

  • 1 vault's (ERC-7540) smart contract;

  • 1 silo contract which contains pending deposits and withdrawals.

  • A curation solution, such as a Safe.

chevron-rightWhat do users get when they deposit in a vault?hashtag

Users receive ERC20 tokens, representing a share of the vault, in exchange for their assets.

chevron-rightCan the curating solution/address be updated? (safe variable in the smart contract)hashtag

This feature is not currently available but will be included in a future update.

chevron-rightWhat types of strategy can be set up?hashtag

It varies depending on the chosen curation solution and its adaptability.

chevron-rightDoes the protocol charge fees ?hashtag

Lagoon has the capacity to activate a fee switch at the protocol and vault level. Those are capped at 30% and are taken on the fees of the curator. Currently no vault is subject to fees. Example: A curator generates 1000 shares of fees through management and performance fees. The protocol fee rate is 10% for this vault. Lagoon will receive 100 shares and the fee receiver 900 shares.

chevron-rightCan a vault do cross-chain strategies ?hashtag

The strategies a curator can execute are exclusively limited by the curation solution he used.

For example, a vault curator using a Safe can bridge funds across EVM chains, non-EVM chains, and even CEXs.
