### 1 · Preparation

* Self custodial wallet
* Native chain gas and deposit assets
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### 2 · Connect

1. Open the **RFY dapp →** [**RFY.FINANCE**](https://rfy.finance/)
2. Click **Connect Wallet** and approve
   {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### 3 · Deposit

* Pick a vault → **Deposit** → approve allowance → confirm tx
* You will receive a tradable receipt token (e.g., `rfyBTC`) ratioed at NAV backing value to deposit
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### 4 · Vault shares

* Shares track NAV and compounds strategy returns and on-chain yield
* You can **hold**, **trade** (if a pool exists), or **redeem** them at settlement
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### 5 · Settlement & redeem

* PnL/Yield is compounded and applied to receipt NAV
* Redeem during redemption window to get back underlying + accrued returns
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### 6 · Points

* Deposits earn RFY Points daily (converted at TGE)
* Check **Points & Incentives** for multipliers and bonuses
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}

### Quick troubleshooting

* **No receipt token shown?**\
  Add token contract in wallet or check vault page
* **Deposit pending?**\
  Check tx status in wallet explorer
* **No pool liquidity?**\
  Wait for redemption period against backing found in vault page
