FAQ

General​

What is ARKONIX?​

ARKONIX is vault infrastructure for professional yield management. We provide an execution layer for on-chain yield strategies — either managed by us or self-directed by strategists.

Is ARKONIX custodial?​

No. All vaults are non-custodial. Assets are held in smart contracts, not by ARKONIX.

What chains are supported?​

Ethereum, Arbitrum, BNB Chain, and Base — with additional networks available via LayerZero.

What vault standard do you use?​

ERC-7540, which extends ERC-4626 with asynchronous deposit and redeem flows.

Depositors​

How do I deposit?​

Connect your wallet to app.arkonix.xyz, select a vault, and deposit USDC. For managed vaults, that's it — we handle the rest.

Are there lockups?​

No. You can request a withdrawal at any time. Redemptions are processed at the next epoch.

How often does rebalancing happen?​

Every 5 minutes.

Strategists​

What are self-directed vaults?​

Self-directed vaults let you bring your own strategy. You manage allocation through a Merkle-root authorization system using ARKONIX's execution infrastructure.

Can I white-label a vault?​

Yes. Self-directed vaults support white-label deployment with your own branding and compliance configuration.

How does Merkle-root authorization work?​

Strategists define authorized actions as leaves in a Merkle tree. The vault verifies each action against the Merkle root on-chain, ensuring only pre-approved operations execute.

Technical​

What is the hub-and-spoke model?​

The hub is the on-chain fund accounting layer. It tracks pools, share classes, and NAV. Spokes are the vaults on each chain that connect to the hub for settlement.

How does cross-chain settlement work?​

LayerZero messaging enables vaults on different chains to settle through the central hub. Strategy modules can deploy capital across chains with unified accounting.
