Using VYLO
Staking $VYLO
Lock $VYLO for 7 to 365 days and receive a share of 40% of VYLO protocol revenue, scaled by how much and how long you lock.
How staking works#
You lock $VYLO for a period you choose, from 7 days up to 365 days. Every time protocol revenue arrives (the 40% staker share), it is split across all locks by weight. You claim it whenever you want, in the token it arrived in: USDC, wSOL or $VYLO.
weight = amount x boost · boost = 1 + (days - 7) / 358 (1x at 7 days, 2x at 365 days)
| Lock period | Boost | Weight of 1,000 $VYLO |
|---|---|---|
| 7 days | 1.00x | 1,000 |
| 30 days | 1.06x | 1,064 |
| 90 days | 1.23x | 1,231 |
| 180 days | 1.48x | 1,483 |
| 365 days | 2.00x | 2,000 |
Rules#
- Minimum lock is 7 days, maximum 365 days. Every lock is a separate position; you can hold several.
- Principal stays locked until the unlock date. After that you withdraw the full amount at any time.
- Extending a lock relocks from today for a period that ends no earlier, and raises the boost.
- After a lock ends it keeps earning, but anyone can expire it back to 1x. Relock to keep the boost.
- No emissions: every reward is revenue the protocol actually earned. Up to four reward tokens.
- Revenue in $VYLO is distributed from the surplus above staked principal, so principal is never paid out as yield.
Example#
Alice locks 1,000 $VYLO for 365 days (weight 2,000). Bob locks 2,000 $VYLO for 7 days (weight 2,000). When 100 USDC of staker revenue arrives, each receives 50 USDC: Alice earns twice as much per token because she committed for a year.
