Riz Vault

The RIZ Vault is designed to provide a centralized access point for depositing and withdrawing common assets across various RIZ Markets, aiming to achieve the best possible yield for those assets. There are currently two RIZ Vaults available: one for USDC and one for WETH.

Key Features:

1. Universal Access Point: The RIZ Vault allows users to deposit and withdraw assets like USDC or WETH across different RIZ Markets.

2. ERC4626 Compliance: The RIZ Vault adheres to the ERC4626 standard, ensuring compatibility with other DeFi applications.

3. Yield Optimization: The Radiant DAO manages the RIZ Vault's strategy and distributions off-chain to optimize yield for deposited assets.

Functionality:

• Shared Liquidity Pools: Although each RIZ Market operates as an independent liquidity pool, it shares its corresponding vaults (USDC or WETH), allowing for more efficient asset management and yield distribution.

• Simplified Participation: The RIZ Vault simplifies user participation by offering a higher yield in exchange for a higher risk, compared to depositing assets in the core markets, which offer lower yields with less risk.

User Options:

1. Deposit into the Vault: Users can choose to deposit their assets into the RIZ Vault, which allows them to receive the total yield available in the vault. Internally, the deposited assets are distributed across various liquidity pools based on predefined percentages, which the Radiant DAO can adjust.

2. Direct Pool Deposits: Alternatively, users can deposit assets directly into specific liquidity pools without using the vault. This option is ideal for users who want to target specific pools and receive the interest rate specific to those pools. For instance, a user who prefers rsETH over ezETH can deposit directly into the rsETH pool and earn the interest rate for that particular pool.

Risk Considerations: The risk associated with the RIZ Vault is an average exposure to all the assets that utilize the vault. This means that while users benefit from potentially higher yields, they also assume a proportionate share of the risks across all the participating liquidity pools. This balanced approach allows for a diversified risk-reward profile within the RIZ Markets.
