Introducing Smart Vault
Smart Vault is River’s yield product — built to make earning as simple as one deposit.
On Ethereum, you’ll be able to deposit assets like USDT, BTC, or ETH. The system automatically mints satUSD from your deposit and stakes it in the pool, so you start earning extra yield right away.
At the same time, Smart Vault deploys your funds across both DeFi and institutional-grade CeDeFi strategies, generating returns from multiple markets.
There’s no liquidation risk. Your position stays safe even when prices move. No strategy hunting, no manual management — one deposit gets you in.
Here’s the flow:
- Deposit assets
- satUSD is minted automatically
- satUSD is staked for additional rewards
- Funds run across strategies, yield keeps compounding
The first Smart Vault will launch on Ethereum. It’s live, but deposits are not yet open.

What This Means
With River now live on Ethereum, users get:
- Lower entry: mint with just 100 satUSD
- Native access: satUSD integrates directly with Ethereum protocols
- Safer yield: Smart Vault automates strategies with no liquidation risk
- Deeper liquidity: Uniswap pool and future integrations extend satUSD’s reach
This isn’t just another stablecoin deployment — it’s satUSD becoming native to Ethereum.
What’s Next
Ethereum is a milestone, not the finish line. Next steps include:
- Opening deposits for the USDT Vault
- Launching more vaults for BTC, ETH, and beyond
- Expanding satUSD integrations across leading protocols
- Building Smart Vault into the simplest yield gateway on-chain
River’s direction is clear: let assets flow freely across chains. With Ethereum now live, satUSD and Smart Vault are one step closer.
Flow with River.
