How Do You Make Sure My Money Is Safe?

This product is self-custodial, which gives you direct control over your "Vault shares." This is fundamentally different from a traditional custodial account:
• Your Smart Wallet: Your funds are held in a secure, onchain smart chain wallet.
• On-Chain Proof: When you deposit, you receive "Vault Share" tokens directly in your smart wallet. This is your onchain, verifiable proof of ownership—you can see your assets on a block explorer at any time.
• Safety Controls: Gauntlet applies institutional-grade risk management. This includes limiting exposure to "blue-chip" stablecoins and strictly constraining position sizes based on available liquidity to ensure you can exit positions smoothly.
• Risks: This is not a bank deposit. Yields are generated via onchain strategies which carry smart contract and liquidity risks.
