Further the utility of your vacbETH by depositing it as collateral and generating synths via Metronome

Overview

Metronome’s latest addition to the collateral asset lineup, vacbETH, is the Vesper position of Coinbase’s liquid staking token that enables users to navigate the DeFi landscape while still being able to participate in Ethereum’s Proof of Stake system.

With this integration, Metronome Synth offers a seamless way for users to deposit their vacbETH and instantly generate synthetic assets from the available range of options.

Productive Collateral

Users who deposit their vacbETH into Metronome Synth will be able to generate synthetic assets right away, all while still earning rewards on their original deposit in cbETH and yield from Vesper. This type of capital efficiency enables users to further the utility of their tokens and maximize potential gains.

  2. Select “Deposit”.
  3. Choose your collateral; in this case, “vacbETH”.
  4. Enter the amount and click “Deposit”.
