🔐Lock

Tokenomics

  • $SDX — ERC-20 utility token of the protocol

  • $veSDX — ERC-721 governance token in the form of an NFT (non-fungible token)

$SDX is distributed to liquidity providers who stake their LPs through emissions.

$veSDX is used for governance. Any $SDX holder can vote-escrow their tokens and receive a $veSDX (also known as Lock or veNFT) in exchange. Additional tokens can be added to the $veSDX NFT at any time.

Lock

The lock period (also known as vote-escrowed period, hence the ve prefix) can be up to 4 years, following the linear relationship shown below:

  • 100 $SDX locked for 4 years will become 100 $veSDX

  • 100 $SDX locked for 2 years will become 50 $veSDX

The longer the lock time, the higher the voting power (voting weight). When you lock $SDX tokens, you receive a veNFT , which represent your voting power and claim on protocol revenue.

  • The $veSDX amount is calculated based on both the number of tokens and the length of the lock. For example, locking 100 tokens for 4 years may grant you 100 $veSDX, while locking the same 100 tokens for 2 years might only give you 50 $veSDX

  • This means that, with the same token amount, a longer lock duration always results in more $veSDX voting power and thus a larger share of the protocol's revenue

Merge

Merging two locks will choose the longest lock time of the two and will increase the final Lock (veNFT) voting power by adding up the two underlying locked amounts based on the new lock time.

Transfer

Lock can be transferred to other wallet.
