Economics
How value is created, what we measure, and how fees are framed.
vTVL, the metric we care about
Traditional DeFi often uses TVL. Aqua0 focuses on vTVL (virtual TVL) as a better proxy for capital productivity.
- TVL means capital locked (often idle)
- vTVL means capital allocated and available across strategies/chains through virtual accounting
Fees (high-level)
Aqua0’s fee model is designed with these goals.
- aligned with LP performance (we only win if volume and execution happen)
- competitive versus the market range
- simple to understand for integrators and users
