Vault Introduction

What is a Vault?

The Asset Vault is a holding contract that functions as a safe storage mechanism for one or multiple compatible assets. Vaults enable users to deposit multiple assets as collateral and take out a single loan against a Vault.

To learn more about Vaults, see Vault FAQ.

Create & Deposit

  1. After connecting a wallet to application, users should navigate to the Borrow Page. Users should select Create Vault to start the process.
