Dynamic Vault is Meteora’s legacy single-asset vault program. A user deposits one SPL token into a vault, receives vault LP tokens, and later burns those LP tokens to withdraw a proportional share of the vault’s unlocked token value. For rebalance vaults, liquidity can also be deployed from the vault reserve into approved strategy accounts. The program handles the on-chain accounting: deposits, withdrawals, LP minting and burning, strategy allowlisting, total liquidity updates, locked profit, performance-fee minting, and permission checks.Documentation Index

Dynamic Vault runs on the mainnet program

Single-Token Vaults
Each vault is tied to one token mint. The vault reserve token account and LP mint are program-derived accounts for that vault.
LP Share Accounting
Deposits mint LP tokens, withdrawals burn LP tokens, and share calculations use the vault’s unlocked amount.
Approved Strategies
Rebalance vaults can hold up to 30 strategy accounts. Strategy deposits and withdrawals must use a strategy already recorded on the vault.
Profit Locking
Profit reported during strategy actions is added to locked profit and released over time before it becomes part of the unlocked amount.
LP-Token Fees
Profitable strategy actions can mint vault LP tokens to the configured fee vault instead of transferring underlying tokens out.
Admin and Operator Roles
Admins manage vault configuration and strategies. The admin or configured operator can submit strategy rebalances and reward claims.
Vault Types
The program supports two vault types.| Type | Program behavior |
|---|---|
| Rebalance vault | Uses Meteora’s configured base address, can enable or disable deposits, can set an operator, can configure a fee vault, can add strategies, and can rebalance into supported strategies. |
| Idle vault | Uses the default base address and holds all liquidity in the vault reserve. Strategy, operator, enable, fee-vault, and admin-management instructions are constrained to rebalance vaults. |
Lifecycle
A vault is initialized for one token mint
The program creates the vault account, token vault, and LP mint. The LP mint uses the same decimals as the underlying token mint.
Users deposit the underlying token
Deposits transfer tokens into the token vault and mint LP tokens to the user. Deposits fail when the vault is disabled or when the minted LP amount is below the user’s minimum.
Approved operators rebalance strategies
For rebalance vaults, the admin or operator can move liquidity between the token vault and an approved strategy account.
The program updates profit, loss, and fees
After a strategy action, the program compares before and after liquidity, updates total amount, records gain or loss, updates locked profit, and mints performance-fee LP tokens when applicable.
Current Strategy Support
TheStrategyType enum contains legacy names from earlier integrations, but most variants now return unsupported behavior. In the current source code, the external lending strategy handler implemented for active deposits and withdrawals is JupLend.
The
Vault strategy handler exists for internal compatibility, especially the advanced strategy-removal path, but it is not a yield destination for new strategy deposits.Risk Considerations
Dynamic Vault reduces some operational risk by keeping strategy actions inside program-approved flows, but it does not remove the risks of yield-bearing vaults.| Risk | What to understand |
|---|---|
| Variable yield | Returns depend on connected lending markets, utilization, available strategies, and operator timing. |
| Strategy risk | Liquidity deployed through a strategy is exposed to the connected lending protocol and its account state. |
| Liquidity risk | Withdrawals depend on liquidity in the token vault or what can be withdrawn from a strategy at that moment. |
| Operator risk | Hermes or any configured operator can only use approved flows, but delayed or poor rebalancing can still affect allocation quality. |
| Program risk | Dynamic Vault, its strategy handlers, and connected programs can carry smart contract and integration risk. |

Dynamic Vault is a legacy product. Supported strategies are limited by the deployed program and current operator configuration.
