What is a Dollar Vault?

Overview

Dollar Vault allows you to deposit USDC.e into an account as part of your non-custodial World App wallet. You may also be able to earn yield on USDC.e from third party providers.

You are able to store your USDC.e in one of two account types:

  1. Vault: Your USDC.e are locked via decentralized smart contract until you choose to unlock them. You may earn yield from third party providers.
  2. Spending: Your USDC.e are ready for daily transactions.

Earning Yield in Vault

Digital Dollars that are deposited into Vault may earn additional yield from third party providers, subject to their terms and conditions. The APY that you can earn is variable and may change. These details will be displayed in your Vault within World App.

How is Yield Generated?

Yield is generated from deposits into the Sky Protocol. When you deposit into Dollar Vault, you are swapping Digital Dollars for sDAI using a decentralized smart contract. 

sDAI is a token that represents the value of the Dai Savings Rate (DSR), which is offered to depositors in the Sky Protocol. The yield generated by sDAI is directly tied to the Dai Savings Rate, which can fluctuate over time.
