# Listing fees

Ledgity allows DAOs, funds, protocols, and asset managers to **list their own yield vaults** on the platform, benefiting from:

* On-chain infrastructure (vault factory, accounting, withdrawals buffer, etc.)
* Institutional-grade reporting and risk monitoring
* Integrated DeFi routing (DEX LP, staking boosts, aggregator indexing)
* Distribution to Ledgity’s community, partners, and whitelist

To ensure **seriousness, sustainability, and security**, vault listing requires a **listing commitment**.

***

### **Why Listing Fees Exist**

Listing a vault requires:

* Legal & regulatory verification
* Risk and compliance review
* On-chain & off-chain integration work
* Liquidity planning + operational monitoring
* UI/UX implementation + distribution support

This ensures that **every vault listed** on Ledgity is:

✔ Compliant\
✔ Audited or reviewable\
✔ Aligned with long-term sustainability\
✔ Meaningful in scale and reputation

***

### **Vault Listing Models**

Projects can choose between two listing models:

| Model                   | Requirement                                                                         | Suitable For                        | Key Benefits                                               |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Flat Listing Fee**    | **€XX XXX** setup fee                                                               | Institutions, funds, asset managers | Fast integration, branded vault, regulatory support        |
| **LDY-Aligned Listing** | Commit a portion of vault liquidity in **lyUSDC / LDY** (minimum threshold applies) | DAOs, protocols, DeFi teams         | Shared incentives + boosted visibility + zero upfront cost |

Both models ensure **reciprocal alignment** between the vault operator and the protocol.

### **Value Provided to Listing Partners**

| Benefit                         | Description                                                                |
| ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Liquidity Buffer Integration    | Instant withdrawals for your users                                         |
| Dune + Reporting Tools          | Institutional-grade reporting dashboards                                   |

| DeFi Distribution               | Exposure through Base, Arbitrum, Sonic, Ethereum, Linea, Hedera ecosystems |

Ledgity acts as an **infrastructure layer**, not as a strategy originator — your vault remains **your vault**.

***

### **Alignment Mechanism**

To be listed, a vault **must benefit the broader ecosystem**, meaning:

* It must **not create systemic liquidity risk**
* It must be **transparent and auditable**
* It must contribute to **protocol growth & token value capture**

In short:\
**If the vault helps everyone win — it qualifies.**
