FAQ
Short answers to the questions people ask first.
Can my shares be liquidated?#
No. Every position is collateralized for its maximum obligation when it opens, so nothing needs to be closed by a third party. There is no liquidation price and no auto-deleveraging. See the collateral model.
Do I need $VANT to use Vanterra?#
No. The Free tier includes the 24/7 options chain, manual trading, position NFTs, the live risk radar and the backtest lab with limited runs. Holding $VANT unlocks more. See Holder tiers.
Do I have to stake $VANT?#
No. There is no staking, no lockup and no unbonding. Your tier is read from your wallet balance.
What is the $VANT contract address?#
It is not published yet. It will be published before launch, on vanterra.app and in these docs. Don't trust an address from anywhere else.
How much yield will a vault earn?#
There is no fixed rate. Streamed premium reflects options actually sold, and yield is not guaranteed. Any fees are published before launch.
When can I withdraw premium?#
Any time. Accrued premium is withdrawable whenever you like. Leave early and you take exactly what has accrued to you. See Premium streaming.
Can I trade on weekends?#
Yes. The options chain is open pre-market, after-hours and on weekends. Off-hours prices reference on-chain and extended-session prices, and the open can gap past any strike. See the 24/7 options chain.
Does the AI strategist trade for me?#
No. It proposes a strategy. Nothing executes until you review and sign it.
What do I settle in?#
USDC. Physically settled contracts deliver the tokenized share in the same block as exercise.
Which chain is Vanterra on?#
Robinhood Chain, chain id 4663.
Is Vanterra a broker?#
No. It does not hold custody of your shares outside the contracts you sign into.
