⚡Zapper

The Zapper is a convenience contract that allows users to use Sonic tokens (S) directly to mint anS, simplifying the staking process. The anS Vault supports wS tokens (wrapped Sonic tokens) but does not permit direct minting with S tokens. This design enhances security while reducing gas costs for minting.

Zapping with anS

The Angles dApp integrates zapping and minting into a single transaction for maximum efficiency. Users with S tokens can seamlessly interact with the dApp, which automatically routes their transactions to the most cost-effective option. This may involve either swapping S tokens for anS via a liquidity pool or depositing S tokens into the Zapper, where they are wrapped as wS tokens and automatically deposited into the anS Vault.

This automated process ensures optimal user experience and minimizes gas fees while enabling rapid access to liquid staking.

Withdrawing anS

While the Zapper currently supports deposits only, anS minted through the Zapper remains fully liquid. Users can redeem their anS tokens 1:1 for S tokens at any time through the protocol’s redemption options. (See Redemption for more details.)

Why Use the anS Zapper?

The anS Zapper streamlines the staking process for users by eliminating complex multi-step transactions. Whether minting anS or ensuring the most cost-efficient route, the Zapper provides a secure and user-friendly way to engage with Angles liquid staking protocol.
