# Vaults

Vaults in Nuon v2 have the flexibility to contain a wide array of assets, making them highly adaptable and versatile. In the initial phases of Nuon, while the preference for US dollars persists, these vaults will primarily consist of price-neutral, yield-bearing assets. These assets do not carry a directional bet beyond the stable value of USDC and their respective yield. Examples include Aave aUSDC, Uniswap USDC-USDT LP tokens, and Curve 3CRV.

The selection and profile of vault assets are governed by a robust governance system rather than enforced through technical limitations. Nuon v2 leverages ERC-4626 standards, which mandate that any protocol implementing this standard must use ERC-20 tokens to represent shares. This ensures that vaults can hold diversified baskets of assets, enhancing yield potential while maintaining stability.

The choice of these asset baskets will be overseen by a risk-averse, yield-seeking quorum of governance participants. This group of vetoers will rigorously evaluate and approve assets to ensure they meet the expected standards and contribute to Nuon’s goal of providing reliable, inflation-protected yields

By allowing vaults to incorporate any delta-neutral basket of assets, Nuon v2 maximizes its adaptability and yield potential, catering to the diverse needs of its user base while maintaining a focus on stability and security.

ERC-4626 vaults can also be leveraged to issue receipt tokens for protocols which otherwise don’t. ERC-4626 vault integrations allow the protocol to partner with and generate yields from virtually any protocol. With the right function logic, ERC-4626 vaults can also accumulate points, and claim airdrops.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://whitepaper.nuon.fi/architecture/vaults.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
