Contracts Overview

An Aera vault can be deployed by deploying the following two contracts:

• AeraVaultV1 – the main vault, pointing to a Withdrawal Validator

• PermissiveWithdrawalValidator – a permissive withdrawal validator contract that allows withdrawals of an arbitrary size

Deployment Flow

An Aera Vault can be deployed by following the below steps:

• Deploy a withdrawal validator contract that inherits from a IWithdrawalValidator interface

• Deploy the Aera Vault with a given selection of tokens

• Make an initial deposit by approving token amounts and calling initialDeposit. This step is essential as it helps establish an initial spot price for the underlying Balancer pool.
