FAQ
Common questions about _gamma — custody, risks, withdrawals, fees, minimums, how yield accrues, and points.
Does _gamma take custody of my funds?
No. _gamma is non-custodial. Your assets sit in on-chain vault programs, and you hold share tokens (gmSTBL, gmSOL, or plRWA) in your own wallet. Only your wallet can redeem your shares, and the agent cannot withdraw funds to an arbitrary destination. See Non-custodial design.
What do the G.E.A.s actually do?
A Gamma Economic Agent (G.E.A.) is an ML-powered autonomous agent. It continuously monitors rates, liquidity, and prices across vetted Solana protocols, computes a risk-adjusted target portfolio, and rebalances toward it — only when the improvement clears the measured cost of transacting. Every action it takes must pass on-chain policy checks. It optimizes your capital; it never takes custody of it.
What are the risks?
Yields are variable and not guaranteed. You are exposed to smart-contract risk in the underlying protocols, market risk, and protocol risk. _gamma manages these with continuous protocol risk scoring, provider tier caps, diversification, staleness and NAV freshness guards, and automated deleveraging on leveraged positions — but it cannot eliminate risk. See Risk management.
Can I withdraw any time?
Yes. There are no lock-up periods — you can request a withdrawal whenever you like. If the vault holds enough liquid asset, it settles instantly. Otherwise the program records an on-chain withdrawal receipt for your pending shares, the agent frees liquidity by unwinding positions, and you claim your assets in a second transaction once they are ready. Because the receipt is on-chain, your funds are never in limbo. See Withdrawals.
How long do withdrawals take?
Instant when the vault is liquid enough. When queued, the median is around 10 minutes on stablecoin vaults; the app shows a data-driven arrival band (p50/p90) from recent history. Cross-chain RWA redemptions (plRWA) settle back over a bridge and typically take longer — hours up to about a day. See Timing.
What are the fees?
There is no deposit fee. A small withdrawal fee — currently 30 bps (0.30%) on the
live vaults — applies on withdrawals; it is retained in the vault for the benefit
of remaining depositors, and it is waived when you redeem your entire balance. The
fee is a per-vault on-chain policy, so read the live value from
stats.withdrawalFeeBps rather than assuming a fixed number. Vaults may also charge a
performance fee, which is read directly from the on-chain vault account.
Is there a minimum deposit?
No. There is no minimum deposit and no lock-up. You can start with any amount.
How do yields accrue?
Yield compounds inside the vault and shows up as share-price appreciation. The
share price is NAV / total shares; as the vault's positions earn, NAV rises and
each share becomes worth more. You do not receive new tokens and you never need to
manually claim or compound — you simply redeem more value per share than you put
in. All of this is on-chain and independently verifiable.
How is _gamma different from other yield platforms?
_gamma pairs an ML-driven optimizer with a strictly non-custodial, policy-bounded on-chain design. The agent works 24/7 across many protocols, but it can only touch the protocols and instructions its multisig-gated policies permit, its signing key is hardware-backed in Google Cloud KMS, and every figure is derived from on-chain state. You get hands-free optimization without handing over custody or trusting an off-chain ledger.
What is the points program?
_gamma runs a points program, and some vaults display x2 Points campaign badges indicating boosted accrual for depositing in that vault. Points indicators appear on the vault pages alongside APY and rewards.
