Setting Weights
Weights are specified in percentages (internally stored as basis points, where 100% = 10,000 BPS). Rules:- Each asset weight must be > 0% (you can’t add a 0% allocation)
- Total weights must sum to between 1% and 100%
- The unallocated portion (100% minus total weight) remains as idle tiltUSDC
Token Limit
Vaults can hold up to 30 different tokens at once. This cap prevents excessive gas costs during rebalancing and withdrawal operations.Seed Deposit
Every fund requires a minimum seed deposit to initialize. This:- Creates the initial vault shares
- Burns the first 1,000 shares to
address(1)(inflation attack protection) - Gives the vault its starting NAV
- Demonstrates the curator’s skin-in-the-game

After Deployment
