πŸ’ŽveERU

Lock your $ERU for voting power. VeERU stands for Vote escrow ERU. ERU holders are able to lock up their ERU tokens and gain vote powers in the protocol.

What is veERU?

veERU will be the governing scheme for EruSwap DAO. Anyone who stakes ERU will receive veERU NFT. The NFT holders will have the power to initiate and vote for the governance proposals. The rights and power will be determined by the ERU amount and lock duration.

  • 1 ERU locked for 4 years = 1.00 veERU

  • 1 ERU locked for 3 years = 0.75 veERU

  • 1 ERU locked for 2 years = 0.50 veERU

  • 1 ERU locked for 1 year = 0.25 veERU

veERU NFT will be the first tradable NFT with which there are juicy rewards to be distributed on a weekly basis in addition to the NFT value.

You are allowed to extend the locking duration before it expires. Once your lock expires, you can withdraw your ERU after you claim all the rewards.

veERU Utility

  • Protocol revenue access: veERU holders can vote for gauges on a weekly basis, and access 80% of the trading fees (later 90%) and 100% of the bribes for the associated pot.

  • Governance participation: veERU holders can partake in governance and cast votes for the protocol improvement proposals.

veERU voters receive:

  • Trading fees generated by the pot(s) they vote for

  • Bribes deposited for the pots they vote for

  • Weekly veERU distribution (rebase)

veERU Specifications

  • ve(3,3) Mechanics: The Olympus DAO anti-dilution method, commonly known as the rebase mechanism, is combined with Curve's vote-escrowed model in the Solidly-initiated ve(3,3) Mechanics concept. To safeguard veERU holders from dilution and to enable a dynamic distribution of veERU among participants over time, the anti-dilution level has been capped at 30%.

  • Gauge: A pot with dynamic $ERU rewards based on veERU weekly voting allocation. No negative voting.

  • Bribes: Custom amount of tokens paid by a third party on a gauge to veERU holders in exchange for their votes.

  • Max Lock: 4 years.

  • Farming Boost: This feature has not been included to prevent from the emergence of any profit maxi protocols on top of EruSwap. Conversely, a dynamic and decentralized governance over $ERU emissions is fostered over time.

  • Flexibility: veERU positions can be merged, split, and sold on the secondary market.

Voting

For voting, you need to be aware of epochs. Each epoch lasts for 7 days, after which the bribes and trading fees are distributed. You earn only from the gauges (pots) you have voted for.

  • Trading fees and bribes are claimable as a lump sum after the next Epoch has ended (n+2)

  • You have to vote weekly in order to be eligible for the fees and bribes, unless you use an optimizer

  • You can pre-approve your vote for a number of weeks in advance (coming soon)

  • You can change or reset your vote at any time

  • Vote weights reset each Epoch. You need to vote every Epoch in order to earn the bribes and trading fees.
