What is a vault?

A vault is a type of smart contract that collects deposits from users, creates shares (vault tokens) representing their share of the stored assets, and then distributes these invested assets across various β€œstrategies” to generate a yield on them.

A strategy refers to a yield-generating smart contract added to a vault. The strategy takes the invested assets and deploys them to a yield-generating source.

Thus, the Vault is a collection of several strategies that run automatically, each strategy performs predetermined operations, such as investing assets in a protocol and reinvesting rewards regularly.

How Is Locus Used?

When a user deposits any Locus vaults, they receive a vault token representing their position. The token's price depends on the activities of the vault strategies. Think of it as a DeFi representation of a basket of tokens.

Using Locus is simple β€” users invest in vaults, and vaults with strategies do the heavy lifting.
