Static Wrapper Vaults

Overview

Static KTokens are ERC-4626 compliant vault wrappers built on top of Kona Lending. They convert rebasing kTokens (e.g., kWETH, kUSDC) into non-rebasing, composable vault shares with a fixed token balance. Instead of your balance increasing over time (as with standard kTokens), interest accrues through an increasing exchange rate.

This makes Static KTokens fully compatible with DeFi protocols that expect standard ERC-20 behavior — including farms, liquidity pools, and other yield strategies.

How It Works

  1. Deposit an underlying asset (e.g., WETH) or a kToken (e.g., kWETH) into the Static KToken vault.

  2. Receive vault shares (e.g., stataKonWETH) representing your position.

  3. Interest accrues via an increasing exchange rate — your share balance stays fixed, but each share is worth more underlying over time.

  4. Withdraw at any time by redeeming your vault shares back to either the underlying asset or the kToken.

Key Properties

  • ERC-4626 Compliant — Standard vault interface supported by virtually all DeFi protocols.

  • Fixed Balance — Your token balance does not rebase. Interest is reflected in the exchange rate.

  • Composable — Use vault shares in farms, liquidity pools, and other integrations.

  • No Lock-Up — Deposit and withdraw at any time without restrictions.

Exchange Rate

Each vault exposes a rate() function that returns the current exchange rate in 27-decimal precision (1e27 = 1:1). For example, a rate of 1.05e27 means 1 vault share is redeemable for 1.05 of the underlying asset.

The exchange rate only increases over time as lending interest accrues in the underlying Kona Lending market.

Depositing

You can deposit into a Static KToken vault in two ways:

Option 1: Deposit Underlying Asset (e.g., WETH)

The vault supplies your tokens to Kona Lending and wraps them into vault shares in a single transaction.

Option 2: Deposit kToken (e.g., kWETH)

If you already have a kToken lending position, you can wrap it directly into vault shares.

Health Factor Warning: Depositing kTokens into a vault removes them from your Kona Lending collateral. If you have active borrows, this will lower your health factor and may put your position at risk of liquidation. Always check your health factor on the lending dashboard before depositing kTokens.

Withdrawing

You can withdraw from a Static KToken vault in two ways:

Option 1: Withdraw to Underlying Asset (e.g., WETH)

Redeems your vault shares and returns the underlying asset directly.

Option 2: Withdraw to kToken (e.g., kWETH)

Redeems your vault shares and returns the kToken, keeping your lending position active and continuing to earn interest.

Kona Points

Static KToken vaults do not earn Kona Points directly. However, the vault receipt tokens you receive (e.g., stataKonWETH) can be used in farms and other integrations that do earn Kona Points.

Security Considerations

  • Vault shares are standard ERC-20 tokens and can be transferred freely.

  • The permit function supports gasless approvals via EIP-2612 signatures.

  • Meta-transactions are supported for both deposits (metaDeposit) and withdrawals (metaWithdraw).

  • Always verify the exchange rate before large withdrawals to understand your expected output.
