### **TL;DR:**

**Lair’s BGT LRTs** accelerate growth for **Infrared users’ iBGT** and **PoL vault** positions by **cross‑compounding** in both directions—iBGT staking rewards → selected PoL vaults, and PoL vault rewards (iBGT) → iBGT staking. Net effect: higher compounding, more Infrared points, **without taking a perpetual iBGT spot‑long** just to “auto‑compound.”

***

### Why this exists

Most autocompounders can’t simply restake rewards back into the same asset because rewards come in **different tokens**. Their workaround is to **sell** rewards (e.g., BERA) to **buy iBGT**. That secretly builds a **spot margin long** on iBGT. When big holders unwind, the **iBGT premium can collapse**, late entrants get rekt in BERA terms, and the “auto‑compound” turns into a levered bet.

#### **Lair’s approach is different**:

* We **route iBGT staking rewards into PoL vaults that emit iBGT**, and
* We **auto‑compound PoL vault iBGT into iBGT staking**.

That’s **cross‑compounding**—we grow both legs **without constantly market‑buying iBGT**.

***

### What you get (at a glance)

* **Maximized yield**: iBGT staking APR + PoL vault emissions, compounding into each other.
* **Infrared points**: Positions continue to earn points with exclusive multipliers (tracked at Infrared).
* **No hidden iBGT spot‑long**: We’re not just dumping rewards to market‑buy iBGT.
* **Composability**: You receive a **pool share token** (the LRT) you can later use in Lair’s cross‑chain restaking vaults for extra boosts.

#### Supported LRTs (initial set)

| LRT          | Cross‑Compound Pair (PoL vault) | Notes                  |
| ------------ | ------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| **ethBGT**   | **ETH** <> **WBERA**            | ETH side exposure      |
| **btcBGT**   | **BTC** <> **WBERA**            | BTC side exposure      |
| **honeyBGT** | **HONEY** <> **WBERA**          | HONEY side exposure.   |
| **LrBGT**    | **LAIR** <> **WBERA**           | Lair synergy vault     |
| **zeroBGT**  | **ZERO** <> **WBERA**           | ZERO side exposure.    |
| **oogaBGT**  | **OOGA** <> **WBERA**           | OOGA side exposure.    |
| **infrBGT**  | **iBGT** <> **WBERA**           | Pure iBGT‑centric loop |

> Each LRT combines **iBGT staking** with **a matching PoL vault** that **emits iBGT**.&#x20;

### Quick UX (what you’ll click)

1. Open **Lair → (Re)Stake**.
2. Pick an **LRT** (see APY, underlying, rewards).
3. Choose **Single** or **Multi** deposit:
   * **Single:** pick 1 token, enter amount, preview **LRT** to receive, **(Re)Stake**, confirm wallet.
   * **Multi:** enter amounts for multiple tokens (e.g., both sides of the LP), preview LRT, **(Re)Stake**, confirm.
4. To exit, open the **Unstake** UI (swap arrow on the LRT page), enter LRT amount, preview output, **Unstake**, confirm.
5. Track **Infrared points** growth on Infrared’s portfolio page.
