NUVA Vaults: Under the Hood

NUVA Vaults: Under the Hood

When you deposit USDC, the vault issues nvAsset tokens that represent your proportional ownership. The vault’s total assets and token supply adjust with each participation; you’re not buying from a fixed inventory. Vault‑level returns are reflected in the nvAsset token price over time, representing your principal plus accrued yield.

How NUVA Works

Put your capital to work in four simple steps.

Put your capital to work in four simple steps.

Step 1

Deposit USDC & Mint nvAssets

Swap USDC for an nvAsset token representing your proportional share of the vault holding the RWAs. nvAsset tokens are composable ERC-20 accrual tokens.

Step 2

Earn Yield & NUVA Points 

Earn Yield & NUVA Points 

The underlying assets generate yield, which is distributed back to the vault and reflected in the increasing value of your nvAsset tokens. As you participate, you also earn NUVA Points.

Your Points determine your share of NUVA tokens at the Token Generation Event (TGE).

Step 3

Use Your nvAsset Tokens Across DeFi 

nvAsset tokens are composable, meaning you can deploy them in DeFi strategies such as lending, stripping, and leverage looping, all while still earning yield.

Step 4

Withdraw USDC Anytime

Withdraw USDC Anytime

Convert your nvAsset tokens back to USDC anytime, with no lockups or hidden fees. Access liquidity directly on NUVA or through decentralized exchanges (DEXs).

Verifiable Reserves On-Chain

Vault holdings are independently verifiable in real time via on‑chain proof of reserves recorded on the Provenance Blockchain.

Programmatic Compliance

Real‑time monitoring and sanctions controls mitigate high‑risk activity while protecting user privacy.
