# Liquidity Vault (L-Vault)

Liquidity Vault (L-Vault) is a MakerDao-like product where users can deposit assets to receive a stablecoin similar to DAI. The difference is that our innovative Pooled CDP mechanism also releases the liquidity of the over-collateralized portion as a margin token, achieving 100% asset efficiency.

In traditional over-collateralization models, users typically operate individual vaults, each generating its Collateralized Debt Position (CDP). ZOO Finance, however, innovates by aggregating vaults, which harmonizes the assets minted and obviates the necessity for singular liquidations. Within this aggregated structure lies a pooled CDP that encapsulates all circulating margin tokens, with the debt acknowledged as collective. Consequently, every margin token holder assumes a proportional share of this communal debt.

ZOO Finance employs the Asset Adequacy Ratio (AAR) as a metric to gauge the health of the vault. A heightened AAR diminishes the leverage ratio applicable to margin tokens. Conversely, a diminished AAR indicates potential debt repayment risks associated with USB. Thus, maintaining the AAR balance is crucial.

Initially, the L-Vault supports iBGT (a liquid staking derivative of BGT built with Infrared) and Bera, with plans to support more assets in the future.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://doc.zoofi.io/berachain-eco/liquidity-vault-l-vault.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
