How Can I Start Earning Rewards?
The time-vested Uniswap staker is a mechanism that gradually lets you claim your earned rewards over a certain period of time. This mechanism is designed like a “savings account for rewards” — the longer your participation, the more rewards you earn. This mechanism of gradual reward distribution, also known as “linear vesting,” aims to promote fairness and prevent a small number of participants from getting a disproportionate amount of the rewards. You can learn more about this here.
How Are Rewards Calculated?
You might wonder, “How are these rewards calculated?” Similar to how a bank gives you interest based on the amount you’ve deposited, the time-vested Uniswap staker rewards you based on the amount of liquidity you contribute — the more you contribute, the more rewards you can earn. However, an interesting point to note is that the proportion of rewards you can claim or “vested rewards” increases gradually, provided your contribution stays within a certain range.
What Exactly Is Vesting and How Does It Work?
Vesting is like a reward unlocking system. The timeframe over which your earned rewards become available or “vested” is decided by the creator of the Incentives program. This could be a short period of just a few days, which can prevent certain strategies that aim to exploit the rewards system. Alternatively, the vesting period could be as long as the entire duration of the incentives program. This encourages participants to provide liquidity over a wider range of prices for a longer time.
Liquidity Incentives Overview
Revert provides an incentives section that showcases the active incentives programs running on Forge.
The position dashboard automatically detects and displays the rewards accumulated by each position.
The system can identify any incentives program applicable to the position and pair, even if the position isn’t currently staked and accruing rewards.
Users have the ability to manage staking, unstaking, and claiming of any rewards directly from their position dashboard on the Revert platform.
