has_custom_fees()

Whether this vault has deposit/withdrawal fees.

Ethena sUSDe vault does not charge deposit/withdrawal fees at the smart contract level.

Return type: bool

get_management_fee(block_identifier)

Get the current management fee as a percent.

Ethena does not charge management fees. Yield comes directly from protocol funding rates and staking rewards.

Returns: 0.1 = 10%
Parameters: block_identifier (Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, int]) –
Return type: Optional[float]

get_performance_fee(block_identifier)

Get the current performance fee as a percent.

Ethena does not charge performance fees on the sUSDe vault.

Returns: 0.1 = 10%
Parameters: block_identifier (Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, int]) –
Return type: Optional[float]

get_estimated_lock_up()

Get estimated lock-up period if any.

Ethena sUSDe vault may have a governance-configurable cooldown period of up to 90 days. When cooldown is enabled, users must initiate a cooldown and wait before withdrawing. When cooldown is disabled (duration = 0), withdrawals are instant.

This returns the maximum possible cooldown for conservative estimation. The actual cooldown duration can be read from the contract.

Return type: Optional[datetime.timedelta]

get_link(referral=None)

Get the vault’s web UI link.

Parameters: referral (Optional[str]) – Optional referral code (not used currently).
Returns: Link to the Ethena staking page.
Return type: str

__init__(web3, spec, token_cache=None, features=None, default_block_identifier=None, require_denomination_token=False)

Parameters

web3 (web3.main.Web3) – Connection we bind this instance to
spec (eth_defi.vault.base.VaultSpec) – Chain, address tuple
token_cache (Optional[dict]) –
Cache used with fetch_erc20_details() to avoid multiple calls to the same token.

Reduces the number of RPC calls when scanning multiple vaults.
features (Optional[set[eth_defi.erc_4626.core.ERC4626Feature]]) – Pass vault feature flags along, externally detected.
default_block_identifier (Optional[Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, hexbytes.main.HexBytes, int]]) –
Override block identifier for on-chain metadata reads.

When None, use get_safe_cached_latest_block_number() (the default, safe for broken RPCs). Set to "latest" for freshly deployed vaults whose contracts do not exist at the safe-cached block.
require_denomination_token (bool) – If True, accessing denomination_token will raise RuntimeError when the on-chain lookup returns None.

property address: eth_typing.evm.HexAddress: Get the vault smart contract address.

can_check_deposit()

Check if maxDeposit(address(0)) can be used to check global deposit availability.

Most ERC-4626 vaults implement maxDeposit in a way that returns meaningful values when called with address(0):

Returns 0 when deposits are globally closed/capped
Returns a positive value indicating maximum deposit allowed

Override to return False in subclasses where maxDeposit(address(0)) doesn’t provide meaningful global availability information.

Returns: True if maxDeposit(address(0)) returns meaningful values for global deposit availability checking.
Return type: bool

can_check_redeem()

Check if maxRedeem(address(0)) can be used to check global redemption availability.

Most protocols return 0 for maxRedeem(address(0)) because that address has no balance/shares, not because redemptions are closed:

Gearbox: maxRedeem returns min(balanceOf(owner), convertToShares(availableLiquidity))
Most vaults: Return 0 because address(0) has no shares

Some protocols do use maxRedeem(address(0)) meaningfully:

Morpho, IPOR, Plutus: Return 0 when redemptions are globally blocked

Override to return True in subclasses that support address(0) redemption checks.

Returns: True if maxRedeem(address(0)) returns meaningful values for global redemption availability checking.
Return type: bool

property chain_id: int: Chain this vault is on

property denomination_token: Optional[eth_defi.token.TokenDetails]

Get the token which denominates the vault valuation

Used in deposits and redemptions
Used in NAV calculation
Used in profit benchmarks
Usually USDC

Returns

Token wrapper instance.

Maybe None for broken vaults like https://arbiscan.io/address/0x9d0fbc852deccb7dcdd6cb224fa7561efda74411#code

Note

None results are not cached — the next access will retry the on-chain call. This avoids permanently caching a transient RPC failure.

property deposit_manager: eth_defi.vault.deposit_redeem.VaultDepositManager: Deposit manager assocaited with this vault

property description: Optional[str]

Human-readable vault strategy description.

Fetched from protocol-specific offchain sources (e.g. Euler GitHub labels, Lagoon web app API)
Returns None if the protocol does not provide descriptions or the vault is not in the metadata source
Override in subclasses that support offchain metadata

property erc_7540: bool

Is this ERC-7540 vault with asynchronous deposits.

For example previewDeposit() function and other functions will revert

fetch_available_liquidity(block_identifier='latest')

Get the amount of denomination token available for immediate withdrawal.

Only applicable to lending protocol vaults (IPOR, Euler, Morpho, Gearbox, etc.). Non-lending protocols should leave this method unimplemented.

Note: maxRedeem(address(0)) does NOT work as a proxy for available liquidity because it requires a specific address that has already deposited shares. For address(0), balanceOf is always 0, so maxRedeem returns 0 regardless of actual liquidity.

Parameters: block_identifier (Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, int]) – Block to query. Defaults to “latest”.
Raises: NotImplementedError – For non-lending protocol vaults.
Returns: Amount in denomination token units (human-readable Decimal).
Return type: Optional[decimal.Decimal]

fetch_denomination_token()

Read denomination token from onchain.

Use denomination_token() for cached access.

Return type: Optional[eth_defi.token.TokenDetails]

fetch_denomination_token_address()

Get the asset() denomination token address of this vault.

Results are disk-cached per (chain_id, vault_address) via eth_defi.erc_4626.vault_token when the vault was constructed with a eth_defi.token.TokenDiskCache and no pinned default_block_identifier. The denomination token is immutable post-deployment, so the cached value is correct regardless of which block the caller would have asked for.

Only a definitive non-null answer is persisted. The None path taken on revert / broken contract is never cached, matching the behaviour of eth_defi.vault.base.VaultBase.denomination_token() which explicitly avoids memoising None so transient failures can be retried.

To disable the cache, pass token_cache=None (or any non- TokenDiskCache dict) when constructing the vault, or construct with a pinned default_block_identifier.

Returns: Denomination token address, or None if the vault contract is broken and did not return a valid address.
Return type: Optional[eth_typing.evm.HexAddress]

fetch_deposit_closed_reason()

Check if deposits are closed using maxDeposit(address(0)).

Uses the ERC-4626 standard maxDeposit function to determine if deposits are available. Returns a human-readable reason with the max deposit amount if deposits are restricted.

Returns: Human-readable string if deposits are closed/restricted, or None if deposits are open (maxDeposit > 0).
Return type: Optional[str]

fetch_deposit_next_open()

Get when deposits will next be open.

For epoch-based vaults (Ostium, D2), return calculated window open time
For non-epoch vaults (Plutus, IPOR, Morpho), return None
Override in protocol-specific subclasses

Returns

Naive UTC datetime when deposits will next be available, or None if:

Deposits are currently open
Timing is unpredictable (manually controlled)
Protocol does not support timing information

Return type

Optional[datetime.datetime]

fetch_info()

Use info() property for cached access.

Returns: See LagoonVaultInfo
Return type: eth_defi.erc_4626.vault.ERC4626VaultInfo

fetch_nav(block_identifier=None)

Fetch the most recent onchain NAV value.

In the case of Lagoon, this is the last value written in the contract with updateNewTotalAssets() and ` settleDeposit()`
TODO: updateNewTotalAssets() there is no way to read pending asset update on chain

Returns: Vault NAV, denominated in denomination_token()
Return type: decimal.Decimal

fetch_portfolio(universe, block_identifier=None, allow_fallback=True)

Read the current token balances of a vault.

SHould be supported by all implementations

Parameters

universe (eth_defi.vault.base.TradingUniverse) –
block_identifier (Optional[Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, hexbytes.main.HexBytes, int]]) –
allow_fallback (bool) –

Return type

eth_defi.vault.base.VaultPortfolio

fetch_redemption_closed_reason()

Check if redemptions are closed using maxRedeem(address(0)).

Only works for protocols that implement maxRedeem in a way that returns meaningful values for address(0). Most protocols return 0 because address(0) has no shares, not because redemptions are closed.

Returns: Human-readable string if redemptions are closed, or None if redemptions are open or check is not supported.
Return type: Optional[str]

fetch_redemption_next_open()

Get when withdrawals/redemptions will next be open.

For epoch-based vaults (Ostium, D2), return calculated window open time
For non-epoch vaults (Plutus, IPOR, Morpho), return None
Override in protocol-specific subclasses

Returns

Naive UTC datetime when withdrawals will next be available, or None if:

Withdrawals are currently open
Timing is unpredictable (manually controlled)
Protocol does not support timing information

Return type

Optional[datetime.datetime]

fetch_share_price(block_identifier)

Get the current share price.

Returns

The share price in underlying token.

If supply is zero return zero.

Parameters

block_identifier (Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, hexbytes.main.HexBytes, int]) –

Return type

decimal.Decimal

fetch_share_token()

Read share token details onchain.

Use share_token() for cached access.

Return type: eth_defi.token.TokenDetails

fetch_share_token_address(block_identifier='latest')

Get share token of this vault.

Vault itself (ERC-4626)
share() accessor (ERC-7575)

Results are disk-cached per (chain_id, vault_address) via eth_defi.erc_4626.vault_token when the vault was constructed with a eth_defi.token.TokenDiskCache. Under normal circumstances the block_identifier argument is effectively ignored on cache hits — ERC-4626 share tokens are immutable post-deployment, so the cached value is correct regardless of which block the caller asked for.

Only a definitive answer from the chain is ever persisted: a successful call, or a revert matching KNOWN_SHARE_TOKEN_ERROR_MESSAGES (which positively classifies the contract as non-ERC-7575). Transient RPC failures (ProbablyNodeHasNoBlock, HTTP 502) fall back to self.vault_address but are not written to the cache, so a flaky node cannot poison a real ERC-7575 vault’s entry.

To disable the cache, pass token_cache=None (or any non- TokenDiskCache dict) when constructing the vault, or construct with a pinned default_block_identifier to force the uncached historical-read path on every call.

Parameters: block_identifier (Union[Literal['latest', 'earliest', 'pending', 'safe', 'finalized'], eth_typing.evm.BlockNumber, eth_typing.evm.Hash32, eth_typing.encoding.HexStr, hexbytes.main.HexBytes, int]) – Block to query. Cache is only consulted/written when the caller passes the default "latest" and the vault instance has no pinned default_block_identifier.
Return type: eth_typing.evm.HexAddress

fetch_total_assets(block_identifier)

What is the total NAV of the vault.

Example:

assert vault.denomination_token.symbol == "USDC"
assert vault.share_token.symbol == "ipUSDCfusion"
assert vault.fetch_total_assets(block_identifier=test_block_number) == Decimal("1437072.77357")
assert vault.fetch_total_supply(block_identifier=test_block_number) == Decimal("1390401.22652875")
