v3 Vaults Interface Guide

So you want to deposit into on of Yearn's V3 Vaults? You are in the right spot. Keep reading for a full walkthrough on how to use them.

Connect your Wallet​

First, Connect your wallet using the button at the top right corner. Multiple wallets are supported, but most people use MetaMask, which can be downloaded for free as a Chrome extension or through the Apple and Android app stores. Make sure that your wallet is connected to the Ethereum network.

  1. Your wallet will ask you to confirm the transaction. It should confirm within a minute, but if your transaction gets stuck, see this guide on how to speed up or cancel the transaction.

  1. When your transaction succeeds, you will see your deposited balance in the vault's interface, which should appear at the top of the vault list.

Tools to track your funds​

If you would like to see how your USD balance changes while your assets are in a vault, connect your wallet to Zapper.xyz or a similar portfolio-tracking product. This is also the easiest way to tell how much profit the vault has made for you.

Your balance WILL NOT increase continuously. Profit will be distributed to your share of the vault when the harvest() function is called, which happens on a fluctuating basis.
