Vesting escrowed tokens from farms

Claiming esGS

To claim your esGS incentives, simply click on the "Claim" button in the top right of the respective pool. These rewards are distributed to users who staked their LP tokens in respective pools.

Vesting esGS to GS

To convert the esGS to GS, you will have to vest the tokens over a 30 day period by reserving your LP tokens. The tokens are vested linearly and can be claimed at any time.

Claiming tokens will however restart the vesting schedule.

Reserving LP Tokens

To vest, you will need to have GSLP tokens deposited in the staking contract to reserve them. The GammaSwap smart contracts calculate the historical average amount of GSLP used to earn the esGS incentives to calculate the reserve amount. This value is provided in the UI. If you remove your GSLP position or modify it, it can lower your vestable balance. The longer you stake, the more you can vest. This calculation is dependent on each pool. The purpose of this is to reduce mercenary farming.

To vest your esGS (or any escrowed reward token like esARB), simply click "Vest" on the pool you received the incentives in.

The UI will tell you what your vestable balance is based on your position, how long you have participated in the pool and the reward rate. If the amount of escrowed tokens is vestable, you will have the option to vest in the vault, the "Vest" button will be blue and clickable. Otherwise, the vestable balance will show as 0.

Vesting Details

Once you have vested the escrowed tokens, you can see the total amount vesting, the vesting status (days left), the escrowed tokens available for vesting, the amount of GSLP reserved for vesting in the pool and the claimable rewards.

Claiming Rewards

You can claim the rewards from the vesting vault at any time by withdrawing just be aware that it will also restart the vesting schedule.

To withdraw the "Claimable" tokens, click on the "Withdraw" button.

Once you click on the "Withdraw" button, you can see the rewards that are claimable.

Unlike vote escrowed token models, there is no "locking" of the tokens. Rewards can be claimed at any time and LP tokens can always be removed from the platform. Note: You will not earn esGS rewards from farms while vesting

Staking esGS instead of vesting

Alternatively, instead of vesting your rewards in the GSLP vesting vault you can stake the esGS for ETH fees, Multiplier Points and more esGS rewards. You will continue earning rewards from your LP position and can vest the esGS after staking as well.

To stake your esGS earned from farms, simply navigate to the "Stake" tab and stake your esGS there.
