## What is Vortex

Vortex is a yield-native liquidity protocol built on Uniswap v4. VRTX is distributed through a protocol-owned VRTX/USDC liquidity system composed of 100 programmed bands.

As price moves upward, crossed bands shift from VRTX-heavy liquidity into USDC-heavy reserves controlled by the hook. The nearest crossed band remains warm for immediate restoration on retrace. Older reserves are deployed into Aave, where idle USDC becomes productive capital.

Aave yield is used to buy back and burn VRTX. In parallel, treasury fees are routed into an Ethena-based yield engine whose holdings remain permanently protocol-owned and exist to generate additional burn flow.

Vortex connects liquidity, reserves, yield, and supply reduction into one loop: trading forms protocol capital, protocol capital earns yield, and yield reduces supply.
