These funds remain productive—earning native yield—throughout the bridging or network warm-up period. Once the target Layer 1 or Layer 2 ecosystem launches, liquidity is automatically deployed to support on-chain activity. ### **Ecosystem Advantages** * **Early Capital Access:** Secures the necessary liquidity runway for critical initial transactions (DEX listings, staking programs, airdrops). * **Smooth Bootstrapping:** Reduces launch­-day volatility and friction by front-loading capital in a controlled, transparent manner. ### **User Benefits** * **Yield Preservation:** Idle assets earn native protocol rewards instead of sitting dormant during pre-launch phases. * **Opportunity Protection:** Users avoid missing out on early incentives or high-APR opportunities once the network goes live. ### **Supported Assets** * **Ethereum & Derivatives:** ETH, staked ETH, wETH * **Bitcoin & Derivatives:** BTC, tokenized BTC * **Stablecoins:** USDC, DAI, USDT, USDe By aligning the interests of both participants and protocols, Pre-Deposit Vaults create a win-win: ecosystems gain immediate liquidity, and users maximize their capital’s earning potential from day one. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
