Deploy a vault in 10 seconds
The Create tab deploys a vault in three steps: Information → Fees → Deploy. On completion, the vault is live onchain and ready to receive deposits.
Information
Set the vault's identity and ownership:
| Field | What it is |
|---|---|
| Name | The vault's display name (e.g. "T3trETH Flagship Vault"). |
| Ticker | The symbol for the vault's share token (e.g. "T3ETH"). |
| Owner | The address that controls fees, curators, and configuration. Assign this carefully — it holds significant power over the vault. |
Choose the owner deliberately. The owner controls the vault. For anything beyond a personal test, use a secure wallet, ideally a multisig, and understand that whoever holds this role can change fees, roles, and core addresses.
Set up your fees
Set the four fees that define your economics. Each is a percentage and can be zero:
- Performance fee — your share of profit above the high-water mark.
- Management fee — annualized, charged on TVL.
- Entry fee — taken from deposits at settlement.
- Exit fee — taken from redemptions at settlement.
You also set the fee recipient — the address that receives the fees the vault collects. See Operations for guidance on choosing rates.
Select chain and underlying
Choose the chain and underlying asset, then deploy:
- Pick the chain and select the underlying asset. You can search the asset list or add a custom token by address (the app reads it onchain to confirm).
- The wizard shows a predicted vault address derived deterministically from your owner address and a salt. You can regenerate the salt to get a different predicted address. The address becomes final once the vault is deployed.
- Confirm the deployment in your wallet.
After deployment
Once the transaction confirms, the app shows a recap with your new vault's address, the deploying transaction, the chain, the asset, and your fee schedule. From here you can:
- Manage vault — open the management console to configure and operate it.
- View vault — see the public depositor-facing page.
- Share or duplicate the vault.
There may be a brief indexing delay before the vault appears everywhere in the app — this is normal and usually resolves within seconds.
Your vault is not yet operational — bootstrap it
A freshly deployed vault still needs its operating roles assigned before operators can act. The app shows a notice prompting you to bootstrap the vault from the Manage tab. Until you do, only the owner can act.
