Rewards
A daily pot of LEAF, shared by trading volume, that never ends.
Every UTC day, Lightbeam pays a pot of LEAF to the wallets that traded that day, split by how much each one traded. There's nothing to sign up for or stake: trade, then claim.
The daily pot
The first day pays 13,000 LEAF. Each day after pays 0.2% less than the day before, so the pot shrinks slowly and never reaches zero. Added up over all time, it comes to exactly the 6.5 million LEAF the rewards contract holds. About half is paid out in the first 346 days.
| Day | Pot that day | Paid out so far |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 13,000 LEAF | 13,000 LEAF |
| 30 | 12,267 LEAF | 378,898 LEAF |
| 100 | 10,663 LEAF | 1,179,316 LEAF |
| 365 | 6,273 LEAF | 3,369,880 LEAF |
| 730 | 3,021 LEAF | 4,992,669 LEAF |
Your share
Your share of a day's pot is your volume that day divided by everyone's volume that day.
- Both sides count. Every fill credits the maker and the taker with its full value, so a filled limit order earns as much as the swap that filled it.
- Volume is counted in ETH. On markets quoted in a dollar token, Lightbeam converts at the ETH price, updated hourly from its own ETH market.
- Markets are weighted. Most count at 1x. One boosted market a day counts 2x; Rewards shows which. A market Lightbeam hasn't given a weight earns nothing.
What doesn't count
- Filling your own orders.
- The part of a swap that Kumbaya fills.
- Wash trading. Lightbeam can remove a wallet's volume from any day that can't be claimed yet, and exclude the wallet from then on.
Claiming
A day can be claimed one full day after it closes at midnight UTC: trades made on 1 November can be claimed from 00:00 UTC on 3 November. Open Rewards, see what each day earned you and press Claim. Unclaimed days don't expire.
The Hallowlight season pass adds levels, quests and a leaderboard on top of the daily pot. It changes nothing about how LEAF is shared.
