tCVX Vault Boosting with Delegated TILT (Not Yet Live)
Vaults can boost rewards by combining staked tCVX with delegated TILT from users. This structure enables vaults to unlock maximum boost potential and redistribute those benefits to both depositors and delegators.
Vaults are specifically whitelisted to receive the maximum Time Boost (2.0×) by default — they do not require the usual 4-week ramp-up. This ensures vaults are fully boosted from day one, maximizing yield opportunities.
The vault stakes tCVX into the staking contract.
Because the vault is whitelisted, it receives an instant 2.0× Time Boost.
Users lock and freeze their TILT, then delegate their TILT Weight to the vault.
The vault receives a TILT Boost (up to 2.5×), proportional to the total delegated TILT Weight.
The vault earns boosted rewards based on the delgations and time boost.
A portion of the rewards is routed to the DelegationRewarder contract.
TILT delegators may receive performance fees based on their proportional contribution to the vault’s boost from the DelegationRewarder contract.
Vault Auto-Compounding
Vaults automatically harvest and compound rewards to optimize returns for depositors and delegators. They may:
Reinvest rewards at market rates (auto-compound)
Convert rewards into tCVX directly if it offers a more favorable return
Dynamically adapt strategy based on current market conditions
This behaviour allows the vault to maintain competitive APYs while reducing the need for manual interaction by users
This system allows users with only TILT (delegators) or only tCVX (depositors) to participate meaningfully in the protocol. Whether you’re supplying boost, depositing capital, or both — the vault structure helps align incentives across participants.
Disclaimer & Risk Notice
These vaults are based upon Yearn V3 vaults and carry inherent risks, including smart contract vulnerabilities, strategy failures, and market events.
Yearn vaults are permissionless and modular, but don’t guarantee capital protection.
Vault returns are not guaranteed. They depend on factors like strategy performance, market conditions, and the behavior of protocols involved.

Notes
To make a TILT lock eligible for delegation, users must freeze their lock. The
freezeDurationshould be a minimum of 2 weeks or match the shortest active lock. Rewards for TILT delegators are distributed pro-rata based on the total delegated TILT weight to the Vault. The maximum effective boost is capped at5.0x (2x Time and 2.5x TILT) like all other users.
Vaults do not need to manage boosts directly — the reward engine handles distribution at claim time based on effective weights
