Deposit to Native Vaults

This section explains how to deposit native ETH into any Byzantine vault that accepts native ETH, such as native SymByzVaults or EigenByzVaults.

Step-by-Step Process

1. Send ETH and Call deposit()

Use the following function to deposit native ETH:

function deposit(
    uint256 assets,
    address receiver        
) external payable returns (uint256 shares);

• assets: must match msg.value and represents the amount of native ETH to deposit.

• receiver: the address that will receive the newly minted vault shares.

The function returns the number of shares minted to the receiver in exchange for the ETH sent.

2. Important Considerations

• The msg.value must match the amount parameter passed to the function.

• As with ERC20 vaults, permissioned access and deposit limits are enforced.

• Shares are minted using the same internal calculation method as ERC20 vaults.
