Onchain Deposit Flow

This is the standard process for participating in Sova Prime vaults. All deposits are handled on-chain, with transparent tracking and off-chain execution managed by institutional partners.

1. Deposit to Strategy Contract

  • You deposit BTC directly into a Sova Prime vault via your Web3 wallet

  • Assets are secured within the vault smart contract

  • Your position is tracked on-chain, ensuring transparency and auditable custody

2. spBTC Token Issuance

  • In return, you receive spBTC, representing your proportional share of the vault’s Net Asset Value (NAV)

  • Your token balance remains constant, but its redemption value increases as yield accrues

  • spBTC is ERC-4626 compatible and composable across the Sova Chain ecosystem

3. Issuer Withdrawal

  • Once your deposit is confirmed, the strategy contract permits the licensed issuer to withdraw funds into their on-chain wallet

  • Withdrawals are logged and permissioned, ensuring secure and transparent capital movement

  • Assets are then prepared for conversion and offboarding

4. Off-Ramping to TradFi

  • The issuer off-ramps funds via regulated OTC desks or centralized exchanges (CEX)

  • Capital is converted into fiat and deployed into traditional financial strategies, such as:

    • U.S. Treasuries

    • Short-duration credit

    • Yield-generating private credit markets

  • Investments are managed by an institutional Yield Curator with full risk and reporting oversight

Key Insight The Onchain Deposit Flow ensures your BTC deposit is first secured by smart contracts, while spBTC serves as your on-chain proof of ownership as capital moves into institutional yield strategies.
