King Protocol FAQs
What does King Protocol do?
King Protocol, formerly LRT², is a vault system for pooling restaking-network rewards. Participating projects can issue vault-share tokens to stakers or a distributor contract.
Has King Protocol been audited?
Two audits are listed, but their names, scope and findings are not published here. Treat that listing as insufficient to assess contract risk on its own.
Can I use King Protocol directly?
The protocol’s description refers to shares issued by participating projects, but it does not explain how an individual user can access them. Check with the project or the LRT provider before connecting a wallet or depositing.
