About

What is Enzyme?

Enzyme is infrastructure for on-chain funds and tokenized financial products, founded in 2017 by Mona El Isa. Its products include Enzyme Onyx for tokenized funds, Enzyme Blue vaults for strategy managers and Myso options. Blue vaults pay a 50 bps protocol fee, cut to 25 bps when paid in MLN.

How Enzyme works

An Enzyme vault is a smart contract set up by its owner.

Any number of investors deposit assets and receive vault shares as ERC-20 tokens, with transferability and lock rules chosen by the owner. The manager trades or deploys the assets, and each investor's claim is a share of the vault's value.

On Enzyme Onyx, deposits and redemptions are requests: you approve, then confirm, and the request joins a queue that the vault owner or admins execute later. Owners can add an allowlist that blocks unlisted addresses, set a minimum holding period, and turn on synchronous deposits alongside or instead of the queue, each with its own list of accepted assets.

How to start with Enzyme

  1. As an investor you connect a wallet to the vault's investor interface, enter an amount and sign the approval and confirmation transactions.
  2. Until the owner processes it, you can cancel a pending request unless a minimum holding period applies.
  3. Whether you can join at all depends on the vault's allowlist.
  4. Owners set the vault's accepted deposit assets and access rules.

Enzyme fees and limits

  • On Enzyme Blue vaults the protocol charges 50 bps on Assets Under Technology, collected by minting extra vault shares when deposits, redemptions or reconfigurations occur.
  • Vaults that hold MLN can buy those shares back at a 50% discount, so the effective rate drops to 25 bps; the Auto Buyback option does this automatically.

The Enzyme Council can apply a different fee model for some products. Deposit and redemption requests are on-chain transactions, so each one costs gas.

Risks to know before using Enzyme

  • Your money depends on the manager's decisions and on the rules the owner sets: allowlists, holding periods and a queue mean redemptions are not instant and wait for the owner or admins to process them.
  • Protocol fees are taken by share dilution, so they reduce the value of every share.
  • Each vault lives on one chain, and moving assets across chains is up to the manager.
