# V2 Vaults

### Introduction

Morpho V2 Vaults are a new class of vault that features an updated architecture, enhancing access to yield, liquidity, and the user experience. Crucially, V2 Vaults introduce a universal adapter model and more granular role separation.

The range of updates opens the door to more sophisticated yield strategies, including fixed-rate and permissioned lending.

### V1 vs. V2

By using adapters, curators can tap into broader liquidity sources, build meta-vaults, or streamline the user experience, while also benefiting from more granular risk-parameter tuning and support for fixed-rate lending. V2 also introduces more granular role separation and enhanced risk and compliance controls.

* [Roles in V2 Vaults](/vaults/morpho-vaults/v2-vaults/roles-and-capabilities.md): how Owner, Curator, Allocator, and Sentinel responsibilities are separated, and how the new Sentinel role hardens vault safety.
* [Adapters](/vaults/morpho-vaults/v2-vaults/adapters.md): the universal adapter model that opens V2 vaults to a broader range of yield sources.
* [Risk Parameterization & Controls](/vaults/morpho-vaults/v2-vaults/risk-parameterization-and-controls.md): multidimensional risk IDs, per-function timelocks, abdication, and onchain permission gates.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://vaultbook.gauntlet.xyz/vaults/morpho-vaults/v2-vaults.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
