# Metavaults (LVF)

Metavaults function as decentralized, trustless liquidity routers which automate capital allocation while maintaining structural safeguards and optimizing yield for its suppliers.

Metavaults are asset-specific (e.g., ETH, USDC) smart contracts that aggregate deposits and deploy them across LVF lending markets based on governance-defined parameters. Instead of requiring users to allocate capital manually to individual Pods, Metavaults automate this process by routing liquidity dynamically to the most capital-efficient and high-yielding opportunities. All allocations are made to whitelisted Pods, as voted on by vlPEAS holders\*, who also define allocation caps and rebalancing schedules.

Capital flows as follows:

* **Lender → Metavault**
* **Metavault → Lending Pair**
* **Lending Pair → LVF Borrower**
* **Borrower → LP Creation** (using their own pTKN + borrowed capital)
* **Interest → Metavault** (yield accrues from borrower payments)

This system ensures efficient liquidity deployment, passive yield generation, and protocol-wide yield optimization. Governance plays a critical role, with vlPEAS holders controlling which Pods receive allocations, maximum caps per Pod, and enforcing segmentation of risk across the vault portfolio. Voting outcomes are codified on-chain and throttle how much capital each Pod can receive per epoch.
