Withdraw fees

Withdrawals on Ledgity vaults are designed to remain flexible while ensuring stable portfolio management. A small withdrawal fee of 0.3% applies to standard withdrawals. This fee is necessary to ensure that withdrawals do not disrupt yield performance or liquidity allocation across the RWA portfolio.

There are no hidden spreads or dynamic penalties. The withdrawal fee is stable, predictable, and visible directly in the interface.

Why the Withdrawal Fee Exists

Ledgity vaults invest in short-duration, real-world financial assets. Unwinding these positions cleanly incurs operational and settlement costs.

The fixed 0.3% withdrawal fee:

  • Protects yield stability for all users

  • Prevents forced asset sales during market movements

  • Ensures treasury and liquidity remain healthy

  • Maintains a stable Price-Per-Share (PPS) evolution

This model is similar to liquidity management fees used in regulated money-market and fixed-income funds.


Priority Liquidity for veLDY Holders

Staking LDY and holding veLDY provides:

This mechanism ensures long-term aligned users benefit the most from protocol performance.


Large Withdrawals (>10% TVL)

For large institutional redemptions, the protocol activates the withdrawal coordination desk, ensuring:

  • Controlled unwinding of assets

  • No negative impact on other depositors

  • Clear communication timeline (generally up to 72h, exceptional cases discussed privately)
