# Deployment Process

All tAssets (e.g., tETH, tAVAX, etc.) follow a standardized deployment process. By depositing the native asset or its liquid staking token (LST), users receive a proportional amount of the corresponding tAsset in return, representing their stake in the overall pool.

The following section uses *tETH* as a concrete example. While the details reference Ethereum and LSTs, the same mechanics apply broadly across other tAssets, adapted to their respective networks.

Following this, the protocol performs a series of rebalancing actions to accrue real yield through arbitrage, including: 

* **Conversion and Wrapping**: Native ETH deposits will be automatically converted into LSTs. LST deposits may also be wrapped for further use in the yield optimization strategy.
* **Leveraging on DeFi Platforms**: Utilizing the protocol’s Safety Mechanisms and Profitability Assessments, LSTs may be used as collateral on lending DeFi platforms to borrow ETH. Borrowed ETH is converted into LST, further enhancing *tETH*'s return through additional LST exposure.
* **Interest Rate Convergence**: *tETH* holders receive yield enhancements while helping to converge the fragmented ETH interest rate markets towards Ethereum’s “risk-free” rate.
* **Restaking, Decentralized Offer Rates (DOR)**: In the near future, restaking of *tETH*’s underlying assets will be enabled to secure DOR, allowing users to potentially earn more rewards.
