# 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**.

### **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.**
