AutoVaults
Ramses AutoVaults (Relays)
AutoVaults are built to remove governance friction while preserving optimized outcomes.
Stake and chill.
How It Works
AutoVaults simplify the xRAM staking experience into three steps:
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1. Stake xRAM | Deposit your xRAM into the AutoVault |
| 2. Select Reward Token | Choose which token you want to receive (ETH, HYPE, USDC, USDT, BTC, etc.) |
| 3. Relax | The system handles voting, claiming, and conversion automatically |
The vault continuously votes using the same x33 methodology that powers hyperRAM, running in the background without user intervention.
Supported Reward Tokens
| Token | Description |
|---|---|
| ETH | Native Ethereum rewards |
| HYPE | HyperEVM's native token |
| USDC | USD Coin stablecoin |
| USDT | Tether stablecoin |
| BTC | Bitcoin (wrapped) |
More reward token options may be added based on demand and liquidity availability.
x33 Voting Methodology
AutoVaults use the same battle-tested voting algorithm that powers hyperRAM:
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Mathematical Optimization | Votes are allocated for maximum fee capture |
| Continuous Execution | Voting happens automatically each epoch |
| Aggregator Routing | Rewards are converted using optimal swap routes |
| Compounding | Returns are maximized through efficient reinvestment |
The algorithm analyzes pool fees, vote incentives, and liquidity depth to allocate votes where they generate the highest returns.
Benefits
No Manual Voting
Traditional xRAM staking requires weekly votes to direct emissions. AutoVaults eliminate this entirely—voting is fully automated.
No Maintenance
- No weekly decisions to make
- No rewards to claim manually
- No positions to rebalance
No Decision Fatigue
Stop analyzing which pools to vote for. The algorithm handles optimization continuously.
Rewards Optimized by Default
The x33 methodology has been refined over years of operation. AutoVaults apply this same optimization automatically.
AutoVaults vs Manual Staking
| Feature | AutoVaults | Manual xRAM |
|---|---|---|
| Voting | Automated | Weekly manual |
| Reward Token | Selectable | Mixed tokens |
| Claiming | Automatic | Manual |
| Optimization | Algorithmic | User-dependent |
| Effort Required | None | Weekly |
Getting Started
- Acquire xRAM — Convert RAM to xRAM or earn through emissions
- Navigate to AutoVaults — Find the vault for your preferred reward token
- Deposit xRAM — Stake your position
- Receive Rewards — Automatically converted to your selected token
AutoVault deposits can be withdrawn at any time with no penalties. This mirrors the same staking concept used in the voteModule and x33—simply unstake and receive your xRAM back.
