ERC-4626 is a tokenized vault standard. Vaults are smart contracts that take in token deposits and do something with those tokens to provide token rewards to the depositor.

Standardizing vault implementations makes it easier for applications, plugins, and tools to integrate with vaults. Rather than building many custom adapters for each vault implementation, applications can easily build on top of any vault following the ERC-4626 standard. ERC-4626 is to vaults what ERC-721 is to NFTs.
