Quickstart Guide

This guide is meant to help users jump into the Votium ecosystem asap, please read the Voter Manual for a more comprehensive walkthrough and more details that are missing from this guide.

Convex (vlCVX) incentives:

Start earning extra incentives with your CVX:

1. Lock your CVX for 16 weeks on Convex.

2. To start receiving Votium incentives, you have 2 options:

   1. Delegate to Votium via the delegate button on the Votium website. Votium will vote on several incentivized pools for you and you won't have to do anything to receive incentives. Delegating is NOT mandatory. While delegated, you can still vote manually for a single pool if you would like to receive a specific incentive of only one token. You can also use third party tools like The Union to streamline the process even further.

   2. Vote manually on Snapshot after incentives are deposited to Votium (when the proposal is live). For example, here is illustrated a $DAI incentive of 100,000 $DAI. To receive a share of the incentive you will have to vote for 3pool on the Convex Snapshot proposal. You can click on the button on the bottom of the card to take you to the Convex Snapshot space.

That's it! all you have to do is wait for the proposal to end, and the incentives will appear on the Votium claim page (or The Union if you are using it) ~24-48 hours after the proposal is over!

Curve (veCRV) incentives:

Start earning extra incentives with your CRV:

1. Lock your CRV on Curve.

2. To start receiving Votium incentives Vote manually on Curve's gauge vote. For example, here is illustrated a $DAI incentive of 100,000 $DAI. To receive a share of the incentive you will have to vote for cvxeth on the Curve gauge vote. You can click on the button on the bottom of the card to take you to the Curve website.

That's it! all you have to do is wait for the gauge vote to end! Incentives will be distributed on the claim page biweekly, on the same schedule as vlCVX incentives.
