Participation Guide: NFT Time-Lock Vaults

How It Works

1. Deposit into the Vault:

   • Users deposit liquidity into an NFT Time-Lock Vault and receive a liquid-backed NFT in return.

   • If a user doesn't hold the specific vault token, they can use Zapper to deposit using any token from any chain — all with the same single click deposit.

   • The deposited liquidity is then routed to the partner’s vault to generate multi-layered yield.

2. Earn Yield:

   • While in the Vault, Users Earn Auto-Compounded Yield From:

     • Bribes from partnered protocols

     • Lending or LP yield generated by the deposited assets

     • Emissions and incentives from the underlying vault

     • Vault fees, including:

       • Royalties

       • Zapper fees

       • Borrowing interest

       • Borrowing liquidation fees

       • Instant redemption fees

3. Trade or Borrow Vault Positions:

   • Borrow: The Unified Borrowing System allows users to borrow USDC against any position across our products — including LP tokens and liquid-backed NFTs.

   • Trade: Users can trade their vault positions on supported marketplaces, providing liquidity and flexibility even during the lock-up period.

4. Withdraw or Exit:

   • Users can also redeem their liquidity during the lock-in period by paying a fee, using the Instant Redemption option—if enabled by our partners.

   • Users can claim their liquidity or bribes at the end of the lock-up period or just it let stay there and still earn all the yield - compounded.
