How yield accrues

Yield is paid into the vault continuously. It does not sit in a separate account waiting to be distributed. It accumulates in three forms: The Claimable value on the dashboard is the protocol’s best estimate of the total unrealised yield that could be settled to the wallet right now, summed across the three sources.

​
The claim operation

The claim operation settles part of the accrued yield to the user’s wallet without closing the vault. It does not unwind any of the three pillars; the position keeps running afterwards. A claim is a small operation compared to a close.
1

Open the My Vaults screen

Each vault card shows the current claimable amount.
2

Click Claim

The button is disabled when the vault is inside its 24-hour cooldown window.
3

Approve the transaction

A single wallet signature is required. The protocol does not need any other authorisation.

Yield lands in the wallet

Most claims settle in under a minute. The vault continues running.
The claim is settled in the staking token of the leg that produced the yield. Most claims pay in jitoSOL or mSOL; some pay in SOL when the perpetual funding side dominates the realised amount.

​
The 24-hour cooldown

Each vault has a 24-hour cooldown between claims. The cooldown starts when a claim transaction confirms; once 24 hours have passed, the vault is eligible to claim again. The cooldown exists for two reasons: The cooldown is enforced by the policy extension at the smart-account level. The smart account refuses the claim instruction inside the cooldown window even if the front end allows the user to send it.

​
What the claim does not do

A claim:
  • Does not close the vault. The strategy continues running.
  • Does not reset the penalty schedule. The penalty applies only to closure; claims are independent.
  • Does not affect the deposit. The original 2 SOL is unchanged.
  • Does not require a counter-party. Yield is settled from the vault’s own balance.

​
When to claim, when to wait

Most users either:
  • Claim opportunistically when the cooldown allows and the claimable amount is large enough to justify the network fee.
  • Wait until close. The closure settles all accrued yield in one transaction without a separate claim.
Both choices are legitimate. Claiming neither helps nor harms the strategy. It only changes when yield moves from the vault to the wallet.

​
Worked example

A vault is opened with 2 SOL on the Balanced tier (median net APY of 11.75 %). The expected realised return for a 30-day window is approximately 0.92 % of the deposit, or 0.018 SOL. Claims throughout the life of the vault are independent of the closure penalty schedule.
