Rewards: Weekly distributions

Funding source: 60% of weekly protocol fees are distributed to ve holders in the form of POLLEN.

LP emissions: PoL emissions from staking POLLEN–BERA Kodiak Island LP are used to market-buy POLLEN; the bought POLLEN is added to the weekly distribution pool, claimable daily by those who locked LPs.

Weighting: Your share each week is proportional to your current vePOLLEN at the weekly snapshot.

Claiming: Rewards accumulate during each epoch. You can claim your POLLEN rewards from the staking interface after distribution is finalised for that week.

NOTE: since vePOLLEN decays, your as more poeple lock or relock, your weekly share naturally reduces over time unless you extend or relock. Longer initial locks slow the decay of your weekly share because of the higher starting vePOLLEN balance.

Example

Suppose you lock 10,000 POLLEN for 180 days.

• The 180‑day lock has a 3x multiplier than 30 (1.25x) or 90 (2x), so your vePOLLEN is more.

• Each day, your vePOLLEN decays linearly. At the halfway point, your vePOLLEN is roughly half of the initial vePOLLEN you received.

• Each week, distributions are allocated according to the vePOLLEN snapshot for that week.

• At expiry, your vePOLLEN reaches zero. You can withdraw or relock the full 10,000 POLLEN to refresh vePOLLEN.
