What are SuperPositions?

SuperPositions are the token you receive when you deposit into a vault through Superform. They are a claim to the deposit you make into a vault.

Key Facts

  1. SuperPositions are minted to the chain you are depositing from (the source chain).
    ​

    Example: Depositing into a vault on Arbitrum from Optimism will result in a SuperPosition minted on Optimism.
    ​

  2. SuperPositions are tied 1:1 with the vault shares minted by the vault.

    Example: Alice deposits into a vault which mints 130 ERC-4626 vault shares. These 130 ERC-4626 vault shares are locked in the Superform contract, and Alice is minted 130 SuperPositions.
    ​

  3. SuperPositions (and vault shares in general) are not necessarily tied 1:1 with token amounts or fiat amounts


    Example: Alice deposits 50 frog tokens worth $100 into a vault which mints 130 vault shares (and therefore 130 SuperPositions).
    ​

  4. If you lose your SuperPositions, you lose the claim to your deposit.
    ​

  5. SuperPositions can be viewed on NFT marketplaces like OpenSea because SuperPositions conform to a modified version of the ERC-1155 standard.
